And I declare I could give a fuck.

Yes, folks — I Declare War have dumped guitarist Evan Hughes.

“Just so everyone knows, because I’ve been asked about it a few times already, I won’t be part of the upcoming tour with The Acacia Strain,” says Hughes on Twitter.

“As much as I hate saying it, I’m not even a part of I Declare War anymore,” he admits. “It was not my decision. I’m pretty goddamn torn up about it. I’m getting a lot of questions. I’m sorry I can’t reply to everyone right now, but look for me later this month on the Hatebreed/WC tour. Just know that every decision I ever made in my life in the past 6 years was with the band first. I appreciate every single one of you.”

Why would Hughes be in the Hatebreed tour, you ask?

Well, he’s been touring with Whitechapel, doing guitar teching for them.

You nosey bastard. So inquisitive, you are.
