Pantera just posted the following photo onto their official Facebook page:
It goes without saying that this was a despicable, inexcusable act. While the Instagram account of "crustyplague" is no longer active, we have gotten contacted by multiple sources saying that it's the frontman of the band Nuclear Hellfrost (Update: Turns out it's the former frontman, the band has released a statement). A quick Google search for the username "crustyplague" brings up an inactive Tumblr page. The Google webcache version of the "crustyplague" page confirms that this is the vocalist of Nuclear Hellfrost:
The band's Facebook page states they are from Fort Wayne, IN. All of the photos on their Facebook page and their statuses have been flooded with threats from Pantera fans.
Update: The band has released an official statement distancing themselves from the vandalization, saying that it was their former lead singer trying to frame them. New information has surfaced on the vandals that negates these statements.
Update: The vandal has issued an apology. See it here.
