Lynch (band) An Important Announcement from lynch regarding Hazuki39s health

In July 2010, the band announced they would be joining a major label, although the exact label had not been specified. To coincide with signing onto a major label, the band started their last tour titled "THE JUDGEMENT DAYS" on their independent label in September 2010. Lynch announced that Hazuki would not be participating in tour due to being diagnosed with "acute pharyngitis and laryngitis, accompanied by swelling of the vocal chords." Lynch proceeded with the tour without Hazuki and gave out ticket refunds where Hazuki was not present. At the final show of the tour on December 19, Akinori, until then a support bassist, became Lynch's official bassist.
