Eagles of Death Metal have been dropped from two French music festivals, after their singer reiterated his suggestion that security at the Bataclan was complicit in 2015's terror attacks, reports the BBC.
Ninety people were killed at the venue last November when gunmen opened fire during the band's set.
Singer Jesse Hughes suggested in March that some security guards may have known in advance about the attacks.
Despite apologising, he repeated the statements in a US interview last week.
The Bataclan venue has previously condemned his earlier remarks as defamatory.
"There's no denying the terrorists were already inside, and they had to get in somehow," Hughes told Gavin McInnes in Taki's Magazine last week.
"During the shooting I went outside and the backstage door was propped open. How did that happen?"
Following publication of the interview, organisers of the Rock En Seine and Cabaret Vert festivals have dropped the band from their line-up, saying they are "in total disagreement with Jesse Hughes' recent allegations".
