Wrong Band Targeted As Dimebag Grave Vandals


. (TeamRock Radio) A Florida metal band have appealed for calm after being confused with the outfit involved in the desecration of Pantera icon Dimebag Darrell Abbot's grave.

Fans erupted with fury last month after an outfit called Nuclear Hellfrost claimed responsibility for vandalising the Texas memorial to the guitarist, who was shot dead on stage in 2004. A statement from Pantera spoke of their "absolute disgust."

Now a band named Hellfrost say they're being misidentified as Nuclear Hellfrost - and that they've been receiving death threats ever since the grave desecration was revealed.

Mainman Sinjin Wheatley says: "Lately we have been receiving a lot of hate mail because people have been confusing us with Nuclear Hellfrost. We just want to clarify that we are not associated with them or the recent vandalism to Dimebag's grave." Read more here.
