Satyricon vocalist diagnosed with a brain tumour

Bad news for Satyricon fans… The band’s frontman, Sigurd “Satyr” Wongraven has been diagnosed with a brain tumour. He broke the news a few days ago via his Instagram account. Here’s an extract from the statement:

“I got extremely sick eight days ago and was rushed to hospital. Scans have shown that there is a blind passenger in my head. Most likely it is benign. I can live with it as long as it does not grow bigger. Removing it is extremely complicated and should only be done if it grows into a size where it is a matter of life and death.”

“I will spend the next two weeks trying to get my strength back, then try to starting writing on the new Satyricon again and pick up where I left on all my wine projects.”

The band’s new DVD, ‘Live At The Opera’ is available now via Napalm Records.
