Reactivated Swedish death metallers DISSECTION have officially cancelled their previously announced appearance at the Metalist Festival in Israel. A statement on the matter from DISSECTION mainman Jon Nödtveidt reads as follows:

"I unfortunately have to inform you about the fact that DISSECTION have been cancelled from the Metalist Festival in Israel (a gig which was 100 percent confirmed), obviously as a result of Mr. Dave Mustaine of MEGADETH (who are headlining the festival) not wanting to play with Satanic bands (according to himself because of his new-found Christian beliefs)! I'm also informed that we are supposed to share the bill with MEGADETH at Fury Fest (France) later in June so I therefore want to say, on the behalf of both DISSECTION and myself; Mustaine, you dare to put yourself in our way but you don't dare to meet us? You want to have DISSECTION cancelled because you do not dare to face true opponents in faith?! You think this will stop us?! We are Satanists, yes, truly enemies of yours! For we are the antithesis to cowards like you! If you are a man of true belief, meet us in France at Fury Fest and stand up for it! Or will you have us cancelled this time too?"

i LOL'd

Well, he did spend years pumping himself full of drugs, so this is just a new "high" for him.

. Seriously, though, I don't think this will explode into the same kind of soap opera Stratovarius got into last year, but it is kind of silly. I mean, I respect Mustaine and all but it really gets to me when born again Christians prioritize their new found faith as an excuse or justification for every little (and sometimes stupid) decision they make.

*LMAO* Fucking eh.

Anyhoo, Dissection have always been open and honest about their Satanic beliefs, and certainly more intelligent and believable than most of the Black Metal scene, so this takes on a certain degree of genuinity.

Still damn funny though
