Estado de ánimo actual:fleshy
So its been a couple weeks now since we returned from Europe and I figure its time for an update on what's been going on since our last blog dropped off the face of the internet. I've added a summary of the last 3 weeks of the Euro tour to the "CHAINED TO THE STEEL ENFORCED SUICIDAL WINGS" tour blog.

We've been busy tweaking the new songs for the next album since we got back. We just did a couple new demos for BREAKING IN and RAPID CITY and also laid down some solos over the weekend for ALL OR NOTHING and FROZEN IN FIRE. BURNING FORTUNE is the working title for the record so far and we have about 10 songs demoed now. Some of the other new tunes are TEARS HAVE COME, THE SERPENT SORCERESS and I CONFESS. We're looking to record hopefully in September and have this out early next year.

We have a few gigs this summer to keep us busy... this Saturday in Ottawa with Flying Fortress at Mavericks. This one should be quite interesting as it will be our first as a four-piece. No, we haven't got a new member, but I cut a few of my fingers open pretty badly on some broken glass over the weekend and just had them stitched up. I'm not able to hold a pick right now, so rather than cancel the show I've asked my old friend Brandon Wars to fill in on bass for the show. Should be fun, I've never really done the "lead singer" thing before and I haven't played with Brandon in over 4 years, so I'm kinda looking forward to this.

We also have a couple TO gigs this summer... August 7th at Sneaky Dee's with Ash Lee Blade, Flying Fortress and Cop Shades and September 16th at the Wreckroom with RAVEN!

CAULDRON RECORDING NEW STUDIO ALBUM IN TORONTO
Canadian heavy metal trio CAULDRON recently entered the studio to begin recording their third full-length album.

The follow-up to 2010's BURNING FORTUNE is being recorded in Parkdale, Toronto, where the band are once again working with producer JAMESON ELLIOTT. The as-yet untitled new album is due to be released later this year on Earache Records.

CAULDRON singer and bassist JASON DECAY comments:

"We recently entered the studio to record our new album. Pretty much the same set up as last time with Jameson Elliott producing with us and recording close to home in Parkdale (Toronto) like we did on Burning Fortune. Chris (Rites) has been nailing the drums and I really think this is the best we've ever sounded in the studio so far. We feel very strongly about the new stuff and can't wait for people to hear it."

CAULDRON will release their fourth studio album, "In Ruin", on January 8 via The End Records. High Roller Records will make the album available in Europe on January 29.

Sorry to report the unfortunate news of our accident (not at fault btw) on the highway in Texas last night and that we will have to pull out of the remaining 8 tour dates. Ian is recovering in hospital and is expected to make a full recovery, otherwise everyone is going to be ok. We are just happy to be alive at this point. Thanks for your support and to our tour mates Enforcer, Warbringer & Exmortus; we had fun and wish you all the best. Hope to see you all again soon
