According to Tokyograph, reactivated Japanese rockers X JAPAN postponed their previously announced shows in France, Taiwan and New York City after drummer/mainman Yoshiki Hayashi's chronic disc herniation (also known as a "slipped disc") and tendinitis worsened, forcing him to stop all activities until further notice.

ThorncrafT

Kopek
From the editors: These Dubliners play stormy roots rockers one minute, jaded urban beat addicts the next, and administrators of snarling vocals and gummy guitar textures always. That mix--essentially hard rock cut off from scene and time--can recall BRMC and just about nobody else.
