The Haunted guitarist Anders Bjorler exited the band earlier this month and he has already moved on, and to non-metal pastures.

Living Sacrifice, Stavesacre, Ghoti Hook and more have launched a Kickstarter campaign for their one-night-only reunion show. The gig is set for Saturday, April 13 in Dallas, Texas.

The circumstances of their lives are slightly more challenging at this point, so pulling it off is a task. If you wanna see them all, drop a few coins! [Kickstarter]
