August 15, 2012, 12 years ago
Canadian melodic death metallers LAIKA vocalist Jordan Dorge comments has issued a statement regarding last month's Laikaruptour 2012 with tech deathers ABHORUPT, which saw the band stranded outside Vancouver, BC for several days due to vehicle issues:
"We are back safe and sound from tour, it was a rocky one but we kept our spirits up. First we would like to thank all the promoters, bands and fans for making this tour possible. We unfortunately only got to complete three of the eight shows we had booked out west. Our van broke down three hours outside of Vancouver, we were super crushed as we were looking forward to hitting Vancouver again and the rest of the dates. We got it towed to a nearby town and they helped us get to kamloops where we waited for the van to get fixed up. Other than the blown transmission we had a successful tour, showed fans a little taste of new material and got our new guitarist worked into the tour life. We are already making plans as your reading this to make up for the lost dates so stay tuned. See the tour video below to witness the journey we had!"Check out the Laikaruptour 2012 video below:
Laika is currently preparing to hit the studio with engineer Ryan Forsyth to record the follow up to 2010's Crafting The Cataclysm. To help fund the album, entitled Somnia, Laika has launched an IndieGoGo campaign. Pledge packages for exclusive preorders, Laika merch and more are available at this location
