MASTODON’s BRENT HINDS in motorbike accident

25 November 2016

MASTODON guitarist Brent Hinds has been forced to bow out of supergroup GIRAFFE TONGE ORCHESTRA’s upcoming shows after breaking his leg in a motorbike accident.

He’s posted a picture of his strapped-up limb on Instagram, explaining: “Broke my fucking leg starting my motorcycle, goddamnit.

“Sorry to all the shows I was about to play with GTO and West End Moteal and Fiend Without A Face.

“Life’s a bitch then you die. Happy thanking!”

GIRAFFE TONGE ORCHESTRA also features William DuVall of ALICE IN CHAINS and Ben Weinman of THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN, alongside DEHTKLOK’s Pete Griffin and former THE MARS VOLTA member Thomas Prigden.

They launched debut album Broken Lines earlier this year. Their first US tour is set to commence on November 29 in Boston, MA and end on December 10 in Detroit, MI.

Troy Sanders of MASTODON revealed this week that the band’s seventh album is complete, saying: “We're just putting a timeline together of when and where. So 2017's going to be an incredibly busy and fruitful year in the world of MASTODON.”
