Paradise Lost has issued the following statement regarding the departure of their drummer Jeff Singer and the consequent cancellation of dates in South America:

It is with regret that we have to announce the cancellation of our South American tour. Sincere apologies to all the fans and promoters involved but this decision follows the announcement of the departure of our drummer Jeff Singer. We are committed to doing the 20th anniversary ‘Unholy Trinity’ dates in Europe with a stand-in drummer but it will be impossible to find and appoint a new drummer in time for the shows in South America. We hope to reschedule a South American tour next year.
