Gay activists in Chicago celebrated their victory Thursday in removing the band Evil Incarnate from a multigroup show scheduled at the White Star Night Club this Saturday. The band's songs include the antigay and racist track "Killer of f****ts."

In a statement, the Gay Liberation Network hailed concert promoter Renato Brierio for agreeing to remove the neo-Nazi band from the bill.

GLN said that Evil Incarnate tried to assuage concerns by saying that the "Killer of f****ts" song was 20 years old. However, the song was recently released as part of a compilation CD called Smash the Rainbows, which led Brierio to conclude that Evil Incarnate intended to mislead him.

"They say one thing and then they do another," said Brierio in the statement released by the Gay Liberation Network.
