Earlier today, Earache Records sent out the following press release. I have highlighted the relevant wording in bold. Despite the obvious tastelessness of this news post, I really can’t something like this go unnoticed.

DECAPITATED INJURED IN ROAD CRASH

Two members of Decapitated have been seriously injured in a road accident involving their tour bus and a truck carrying wood in Gomel, on the Russia/Belarus border.

Vocalist Covan and drummer Vitek sustained serious head injuries as a result of the accident, and are to be taken 550km from Gomel to Moscow for emergency treatment.

All other members of the touring party are not reported to be seriously hurt.

Our thoughts are with all members of the tour at this time.
