UK thrashers EVILE, who are currently thrashing up the West coast of Canada with Canadian metallers 3 INCHES OF BLOOD, have posted a tour report from the last leg of the tour.

EVILE lead guitarist OL DRAKE reports from the road:

"So we're pretty far into the 3 Inches of Blood tour, and it's been awesome so far. On top of 3IoB being great guys and a great band, the scenery on this tour is mind blowing. We definitely have to come back to Canada. The Canadian fans are mental (in a good way), everyone's going crazy. The first show had one guy's face being bust open, there was blood everywhere (I wonder how many inches of it there were).

"Some guy came up to us at the merch stand and said "I downloaded your album, so here's 10 dollars", which was awesome, after we kicked his head in (joking). We played at a venue called the Royal Albert Hotel in Winnipeg. Got to say the Winnipeg crowd were metal as hell. But even better than that was Room 309. Apparently some guy chopped some guy's head and limbs off and disembowelled him. They never found the entrails. Also something about him stealing Susan Sarrandon's jewellery. I dunno. Google it. I have a picture of me in the bath tub where he gutted him. I'm metal/cursed.

"Thank you to all our Canadian fans who came to check us out, and all the new fans we've made. We'll definitely be back!"
