Back on Sunday, July 26th at this year’s ‘This Is Hardcore’ fest, Tom Alderson of the band Crosscheck was jumped and reportedly beaten by members of the bands Heavy Chains and Suburban Scum that would leave him in a coma. You can read a friend of Tom’s, as well as the ‘Life And Death’ tour’s statement regarding the evening after the jump.

Those are the things we know right now. What I also know is that these kinds of actions aren’t what the metal and hardcore scene needs. Support your fellow man and stop proving your “superiority” by fighting at shows.
