Kataklysm is letting fans vote for the next song off their latest album, "Prevail," to shoot a video for. A voting poll has been launched at Polldaddy and will be active until the morning of June 24. Once that date hits, all votes will be counted for and a surprise announcement will be made shortly after by the band.

In related news, KATAKLYSM vocalist Maurizio Iacono has issued the following tour update:

"Well, that was one insane weekend in Canada. We did three album launches and gave away three custom Washburn guitars… and what a memorable weekend it was. In over fifteen years of playing in KATAKLYSM's birthplace, Montreal, that had to be (on Saturday) the most intense crowd response ever to the point that club owners have now established mandatory barricades for every metal concert (sorry, guys).

"Kids stormed the stage and were louder than hell. I'm out of words. They say that none are kings in their own home, but last Saturday that theory was shattered! Toronto and Quebec City were the sickest kick-ass shows we ever played there as well.

"If these shows are any indication of what is to come on Summer Slaughter, KATAKLYSM shall prevail!! We can't wait to meet our fans with our news tunes and a completely revamped setlist. Thanks also to tech gods MARTYR and AUGURY, UNEXPECT and all the locals for sharing this weekend's memorable moments with us.

"We also want to give a BIG thank you to all our fans in Europe, especially Germany, Austria and Switzerland for making KATAKLYSM chart as such high position (highest chart entry for Nuclear Blast history for a death metal band and first highest Canadian metal act chart). The new KATAKLYSM album, Prevail, has a strong out-the-gate impact. The metal fans are speaking. They want the truth and we are speaking it to them. The message of perserverance. You want something in life? Go get it and fuck the opposition. That is the metal way. Be a rebel."
