Terror Universal fire singer

Following the recent back and forth regarding the sexual assault allegations from Otep, Terror Universal's Chad Armstrong has been fired from the band.

His firing comes from the recent damning allegations against his name from Otep singer, Otep Shamaya. Below is a statement from the group regarding Armstrong's (A.K.A Rott) recent firing:

"FRIENDS AND FANS, THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS SUPPORTING TU. WE WANT TO INFORM YOU, THAT DUE TO PERSONAL DIFFERENCES, AND THE COURSE OF EVENTS THESE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, "CHAD ARMSTRONG" IS NO LONGER THE LEAD SINGER FOR TERROR UNIVERSAL.

WE WILL DEBUT TERROR UNIVERSAL'S NEW SINGER THIS WEEKEND AT THE "TEXAS INDEPENDENCE FEST". NEXT WEEK WE WILL POST LIVE VIDEO, SO YOU CAN ALL HEAR AND SEE OUR NEW KICKASS SINGER. WE PROMISE, OUR NEW FRONTMAN IS EVERYTHING YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM TU!!

WE WISH CHAD GOOD LUCK, AND THANK ALL TERROR UNIVERSAL FRIENDS & FANS FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT."

This was arguably a foreseen outcome, almost irrelevant of his guilt or innocence, as distancing themselves from the situation may be best for the band. Yet that only complicates matters if he his found innocent. However, on top of this announcement, the band have also stated they will be revealing their new singer later this weekend at Texas Independence Fest, which also features Whitechapel, Between The Buried & Me, and Oceano, to name a few.
