New Bury Your Dead Vocalist Issues Statement On Why He is Now The Old Vocalist

BURY YOUR DEAD, not a few weeks into their current tour, have parted ways with their frontman Michael Crafter - formerly of Oz outfit I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN.

Crafter's explanation for departure reads as follows:

"Since I got to the USA I knew I had a lot of weight on my shoulders. I wanted to prove myself so much and be a good frontman for byd. It's been 2 months since I got to the USA and all I have wanted is to be home with my friends and this stops me from giving my all. I met a lot of great people here. My time with the band was short and was a lot of fun and a great experience. Eric, Bubble, Slim & Mark became my new mates and ill forever be great full I got given this chance. This tour has opened my eyes up to a lot of things and being in a band in another country isn't what I want to do. From practicing and playing shows with byd will always be a great memory and something I'm glad I gave a shot. But my home is Australia and home is where the heart is."
