On 9 April, Lostprophets announced that they had signed to Fearless Records and would release "Weapons" in the United States on 19 June 2012. Lostprophets played in the Cardiff Motorpoint Arena on 28 April to promote their new album "Weapons", and played their second studio album "Start Something" in its entirety. This show turned out to be a complete disaster for the band; Stuart Richardson commented in 2019 that Watkins "didn't move for the whole set" and that he "sung the wrong words". This led to the band staging an intervention with Watkins, telling him that if he didn't clean up his act he would be fired. The band were extremely frustrated with Watkins following this performance and even considered disbanding entirely as a result of it. Watkins checked into rehab during a two-month break in the band's touring.
