Turbonegro guitarist wins fight against cancer
Knut "Euroboy" Shreiner, guitarist for long-running Norwegian punks Turbonegro, has overcome his struggle with cancer.
The band made this post on their MySpace blog:
"Hi Everyone,
As the year 2008 is coming to an end, I’m happy to inform you all that I’ve undergone successful treatment for lymphoma cancer. Last month I shook hands with the doctors and hugged the nurses and signed off at Radiumhospitalet, hopefully once and for all. When it comes to cancer patients, they’re not willing to declare you completely cured until years have passed without further complications. But there are no signs of cancer in my system at least, and the chances of experiencing a fallback are rather small, and life has gone back to normal. I feel good and tell my friends that I’m cured.
The rest of the blog can be read here.
The band plans to start recording a new album next summer; they last released Retox in 2007.
