"The reason for the cancellation is because the owner of this festival didn't pay us until now and didn't even book a flight," said the group, in the post.
"After promising every week that he will send and after many treats [sic] of canceling us if we will not be patient. We just have to mention that we never got treated like that ever in our 15 years in the industry and we will never work with this promoter ever again!!"
Coming Soon have encouraged fans who purchased tickets specifically to see them to ask for a full refund.
While unconfirmed, Coming Soon have also alleged that there are more than ten other artists that "are facing the same issues".
While it has since been deleted, Earthcore shared a statement via Facebook saying "Due to circumstances beyond our control Coming Soon has double booked themselves overseas in USA & Prague for the same date."
Earthcore is set to kick off in Elmore, Victoria on 23 Nov, before heading off to New South Wales, Queensland and WA in the coming weeks.
