Florida-based death metallers SIX FEET UNDER have canceled their 'Christmas Metal Meeting' tour which was supposed to kick off today (Wednesday, December 1) in Cologne, Germany.

Commented vocalist Chris Barnes: "Circumstances and events beyond our control has forced the cancellation of our December tour in Europe. We are deeply aware of the burden this puts on our loyal fans and we apologize. We live to play in front of our fans and our commitment to our European fans could not be stronger. You have always been there for SIX FEET UNDER and we do not take that for granted. You are important to US! In April 2011 we will do a tour of Europe to support our new DVD, "Wake The Night! Live In Germany". We will make as many of these canceled dates as possible while adding many more. Thank you for understanding but more importantly, thanks for supporting SIX FEET UNDER."
