Canada Denies Entry To WHITECHAPEL & FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY

BLAME CANADA! BLAME CANADA! BLAH BLAH BLAH THEY HATE METAL LET'S KICK THEM OUT OF THE CONTINENT!

BLAME CANADA! BLAME CANADA! BLAH BLAH BLAH THEY HATE METAL LET'S KICK THEM OUT OF THE CONTINENT!

For reasons we are not entirely clear on, both Whitechapel and Fit for an Autopsy have been denied into Canada on their current tour with Devildriver and other bands.

The bands will both miss the Calgary, Edmonton and Regina stops of the tour and then pick back up with the tour when it comes back to the good ol' U.S.A., where we don't hate either of these bands. Whitechapel had made a statement about the matter on Twitter, but it has since been deleted. Fit for an Autopsy, however, wanted those damn Canadians to have a piece of their mind via Facebook:

"Unfortunately Fit for an autopsy has been turned away at the Canadian border. We tried our best, after getting turned away last night, by coming back today to speak to someone who could 'help.' Only to be turned away again. Sorry to all our friends and fan who made plans to see us, we hope to figure out a way to be back soon […] Basically we were given paperwork to cover a couple outstanding problems that were keeping us out. We followed procedures, filed papers, and still got turned away even after all of the due process. It's been a long day"

Don't expect Whitechapel to play Canada anytime soon either.
