I’ve been barking up a storm about Tribulation over the past few years, and this is partially due to their flawless stage performance no matter where in the world I see them. One glimpse of guitarist Jonathan Hulten, and his captivating ballerina meets hair metal stage moves in the middle of a black metal song, will have you immediately hooked for life!
Unfortunately, according to the Tribulation Instagram page it would appear that Jonathan broke two ribs at the Troubadour in L.A. on the second night of the band’s first ever headlining trek across North America. After a quick visit to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, the band promises the tour will continue with all members on board. I can’t imagine the discomfort of touring with broken ribs, but that is dedication!
Catch Tribulation on the remaining tour dates, you won’t regret it!
