Volumes drummer, Nick Ursich, hospitalised

Volumes drummer, Nick Ursich, has recently been admitted to hospital following an infected cyst that required immediate surgery. Yikes.

The band released this statement recently, addressing the health of their drummer, as well as the sneaky little fact that they'll have a new album out next year.

"We are extremely heart broken we are not able to perform for you. Our drummer Nick Ursich had an infected cyst where he sits down to play drums. At first he kept complaining about something near his tailbone. Two hospitals in Spain and Switzerland told him nothing was wrong, until we went to a third in Germany and they had to operate on him immediately to remove and drain it out. Maintaining the wound has been hard on tour so now he is back in a fourth hospital, where he may stay overnight. More updates to come. To fly across the world and not able to perform hurts us more than anything. Please keep Nick Ursich in your prayers! Budapest is offering discounted rates if you keep your ticket for our next show there. We love you so much, and we will be back again in 2016 with a brand new album"

The five-piece act were on tour with Hellions and The Acacia Strain in Europe when their sticksman suffered this ailment, and they have since had a friend flown over to fill-in on the drums for the tour.

Volumes released 'No Sleep' last year, and below is the album's lead single.
