KATAKLYSM are a little over halfway done with their first headlining tour of North America. The tour, presented by CDV Software Entertainment Sacred 2: Fallen Angel video game and dubbed the 2nd annual “Death by Decibels” tour, has become a huge success even in these dark economic times. Vocalist Maurizio Iacono took a moment on his day off to give us the following update from the road:
"Today is a day off in Hollywood, CA and we might go check out that cock rock cover band STEEL PANTHER tonight at the Key Club. Speaking of the Key Club, it was a great show yesterday! The crowd was on fire for all the bands and it was great to see all the fans chanting the lyrics to ‘Prevail’. The album is obviously doing well and the tour has been doing great. Highlights so far have been Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, all the Texas dates, Los Angeles and the sold out show in San Diego at the Soma.
We’re having a blast with the Norwegians in KEEP OF KALESSIN, the Swiss folk fuckers in ELUVEITIE and our old friends in DYING FETUS. It’s been a great ride so far and you if you haven’t seen this package yet do yourself a favor and don’t miss it! It’s really a killer diverse metal package and a good time. Thanks again to all of you for the great support, we know these are hard times in the country and having so many people come out means a lot to us and all the bands. Cheers!”
"Prevail", the most recent CD by KATAKLYSM, was honored in the "Album Of The Year" in the "Metal/Hardcore" category at the Quebec Indie Music Awards (GAMIQ), an awards show that recognizes achievements by Quebec independent artists. The event was held on Sunday, September 21, 2008 at the Corona Theatre (2408 W. Notre-Dame Street) in Montreal and was produced by the Quebec Independent Music Association which is also behind the Montreal International Music Initiative (MIMI).
