Endwell Kicked Off The Mosh Lives Tour with Emmure and More

Endwell has been kicked off of The Mosh Lives Tour that Emmure is headlining. Here's and update from the band:

"First off, we want to apologize to everyone who was planning on coming out and seeing us on the MOSH LIVES tour but unfortunately as of yesterday (Tuesday May 27th) we have been kicked off of the tour because of a T-Shirt....yep that's right. Apparently some people can't take a joke. We were stoked for this tour and looking forward to seeing a lot of old friends and playing some fun shows. Without getting into all the details well leave it at this; some of our good friends receive an email from a certain Tyrant telling them that if we weren't removed from the tour immediately that they would have hell to pay and the outcome was us being asked to leave the tour. We basically drove 30 hours straight to meet up with the tour in Texas and now 2 days later were driving 20 hours back home, it was a good waste of a few hundred dollars in gas.

"Needless to say we're beyond bummed....either way you guys should still go out and support the Mosh Lives tour. There are some great bands and its a great show everynight. We want to thank Recon, After The Burial, Ligeia, Emmure and On Broken Wings for being cool dudes and hopefully we'll get back out there with a few of you again at some point.

"All in all this is just another bump in the road and were not gonna let it slow us down. Our new EP (Revenge Is A Healthy Motive) came out today on Itunes and through our online store, were heading up to Canada in 2 weeks with our pals in MEANS and OCEANS and then right after that we head out on a FULL US tour with Stray From The Path and The Ghost Inside starting in Cali in July. Can't hold us down.....if any hardcore bands are reading this and wanna go on tour hit us up!!! We're gonna be doin our full length at the end of the summer and we're not looking to be home..EVER!"

You can see the shirt design (which appears to be taking a jab at Victory Records, who recenlty dropped the band) in question that got the band kicked off the tour on their Blogspot page.

Victory owner Tony Brummel previously commented on the band's release:

"There is no drama here. Bands and labels go in opposite directions all of the time. Endwell and I are totally cool and they knew about this last week. They are young guys and understandably a bit shocked still and emotional. They know that I will help them in any way that I can in the future. Who knows, we might even end up working together again."

Haha Powerslam?
Did you think much of 4 Dead? They are my favorite band.
Oh no problem. We have awesome music here and it is highly under rated compared the rest of the world.

Wiggles, Bring me the horizon I dont think was in that stack unless I am missing something? I killed the prom queen is not bad, but the clean vocals could go.

I agree - clean vocals are ok when they are sparse...but to me - the albums seemed to be very wussy when it is overdone with clean vocals. This is what killed Killswitch Engage, All that Remains, Disturbed and the list goes on. Thank goodness Lamb of God continues to have rough vocals... Some people love an over abundance of vocal melodies, but I would much rather hear more guitar melody...just me, of course. Give me more Amon Amarth...

Hahaha! Wiggles is right on that! Think they could grow on me well. Think I heard Bring me the horizon and they did not stick with me.

Yeah I really can't stand them (BMTH), they supported IKTPQ on their farewell tour and I had to watch them THREE times! But they did two new songs and they actually sounded decent.
So you dug the Dead? Angry as and I love it!
Did you try out The Red Shore yet?
