ABBATH, the project led by former IMMORTAL frontman Abbath, ended its performance Friday at the SaariHelvetti festival in Tampere, Finland, after just two minutes. '. According to Inferno magazine, Finnish drummer Ukri Suvilehto informed the audience that the singer has been struggling with health problems and apologized on behalf of the band.

The festival organizers confirmed the performance ended unexpectedly due to singer Abbath Doom Occulta's health issues. ABBATH's participation in the SaariHelvetti festival was announced in March. In November 2019, the band played a two-song show in Buenos Aires that was marred by visible intoxication and internal tensions, prompting fan requests for refunds.

At that time, Abbath had publicly stated he was battling addiction and committed to a rehab program to get clean. ABBATH has toured in support of its 2022 album 'Dread Reaver', released via Season Of Mist.
