Citing a busy schedule with their other bands as the reason for the long
layoff, CAGE is back and playing several live shows across the US. Peck
says “But we now have found some time to finish up our 7th record.”
CAGE is currently in the studio working on their next release which is a
horror-concept cd set in London in 1869. Peck states, “It is very much
influenced by HP Lovecraft and will ship with a 90 page mini novel telling
the story in detail. It is really a massive challenge for us but so far we love
it! During all this we also knew we had to get out and play some shows with
the new guys. These dudes are a young and hungry bunch of thrashers!”

First is SEAN ELG, Drummer from So Cal thrasher NIHILIST. “ This guy
doesn’t stop! He is a machine!” says Dave Garcia. “ He has played literally
thousands of shows and just loves metal. We dig that about him.”
Next up is DWIGHT MAGIC Bass player from the band DETONATED. “He
plays a six string fretless bass and has committed his soul to that instrument and the art of metal itself I tell you! He is by far the most skilled guy
we have ever had at the position and is a great writer too. “ says Peck.
Last but not least is new guitarist CASEY “ THE SENTINEL” TRASK ex of
the San Diego band MONUMENT. “At just 22 years old it is crazy that he
has such an old school love for the kind of metal that makes CAGE go. The
first jam we had I knew he was the guy. He has a great feel and just goes
wild at practice. He pulls killer riffs out of thin air and is fun as shit to hang
out with.” Says Dave. “We gave him the nickname THE SENTINEL, based
on some comic nerd stuff that everyone who knows the X-Men will get, and
it is also my favorite PRIEST song too.”
