Harley Flanagan Says He Will Scale Back Cro‑Mags Touring

Harley Flanagan, the 59‑year‑old bassist and vocalist of hardcore band Cro‑Mags, announced that he will reduce heavy touring in the coming years. Citing decades of road wear and recent health problems—including pinched nerves in his neck and lower back—he said the relentless tour schedule “belongs to the younger generation.”

Flanagan confirmed he will still perform when he feels like it and has nine concerts left on the current European and British leg before taking a step back. He also revealed that the band’s next album is nearly finished and may become their best work yet, with only a few tracks remaining to be completed.
