CAULDRON frontman, Jason Decay, a noted non-pot smoker, issued the following update:

"I like to get reverse drunk on April 20th 'cause I don't smoke weed. I still celebrate 4/20 with all my stoner friends, but since I don't smoke dope, I like to get as drunk as possible for two weeks straight before 4/20. When you're used to getting smashed everyday and you take a day off, you start to hallucinate and think you're going crazy. I call this getting reverse drunk."

The band announces a string of new Canadian dates to go along with the UK mini-tour they'll be playing with Pomona, CA thrashers BONDED BY BLOOD.

"Should be some pretty rad gigs being back on the road with (our old drummer) Chambers again along with our rad brawhs P Zells and Joel Grind. We're going to nuclear thrashic toxic waste the Ontarian kids with shrouds of alcoholic molten metal annihilation disaster! Unfortunately we had to pull out of our May 8th release party in Toronto, but the maniacs of the UK are still hungry and demanded more asap. So we'll be back in the UK May 8th to ram another Cauldron full of metal down their English metal throats!"

The band’s new album Chained To The Nite will be available in North America on May 5th. A 2CD (with bonus tracks) and vinyl LP (with an exclusive bonus track) limited edition versions are available from Earache US at this location.
