VOMITORY have extended their contract with Metal Blade Records for another four albums.

Comments Tobias Gustafsson: "We are happy and proud to have signed a new deal with Metal Blade Records Europe. After doing four successful albums out of our six together with Metal Blade, it was no doubt that we wanted to continue working with them. Obviously, they like the way we deliver our death metal and we have no plans on letting them down on that from now on either!"

Since the release of their last album “The Light, the Dark and the Endless Knot”, forefathers of Irish Folk Metal, WAYLANDER have spent years bringing mosh pits to festivals across Europe such as Bloodstock, Pagan Nights and Ultimo Ratio. They have also spent this time finding and securing a powerful line up with a passion to match their musical talents.

WAYLANDER today return with their 3rd album entitled "Honour Amongst Chaos", more powerfull and beautiful than ever, using a vast array of Irish folk instruments and armed with their passion for metal in its truest form.

Blending epic atmospheres and relentless brutality, “Honour Amongst Chaos” reflects the heart and soul of pagan warriors worldwide.

Now proudly flying the banner of Listenable Records, they can look forward to bringing their unique style and pagan spirit to a global scale.

Metal Blade Records has signed the French band ONE-WAY MIRROR!

ONE-WAY MIRROR is a brand new rock/metal band on the verge of triggering a revolution in the World of music. The band was created in 2006 when five close friends decided to join forces to create the ultimate rock metal band: Guillaume Bideau (Mnemic), David and Franck Potvin (Lyzanxia, Phaze I), Dirk Verbeuren (Soilwork) and Loic Colin (Scarve, Watcha).

ONE-WAY MIRROR´s self-titled debut album is nothing less than a killing machine with potential megahits, including future anthems 'Empty Spaces', 'As You Are Now', 'Destination Device' as well as a mindblowing rock version of 'Relax' by eighties band Frankie Goes To Hollywood!

ONE-WAY MIRROR recorded the drums for the album with Daniel Bergstrand (Meshuggah, In Flames, a.o.) at the Dug Out Studio while everything else was recorded later on at Lyzanxia's Dome Studio/Guillaume Bideau's Dogs In The House Studio and produced by Guillaume Bideau and David Potvin. The band then went to Denmark to get the tracks mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen (Sick Of It All, Dark Tranquillity, Mnemic, Moonspell, a.o.) at the Antfarm Studio.

Comments guitarist David Potvin: "As a newcomer band, we're proud to be part of this pioneer label which discovered cult bands such as Metallica and Slayer and continues to develop the most kick ass bands like As I Lay Dying, The Ocean and many more. We already know that we're gonna do a great job together. We'll see you on stage soon. Kick-start the melee!"

ONE-WAY MIRROR is:
Guillaume Bideau – Vocals
Davd Potvin – Lead Guitar
Franck Potvin – Rhythm Guitar
Dirk Verbeuren – Drums
Loic Colin – Bass

CYNIC a signé chez SEASON OF MIST RECORDS
Mais le plus intéressant reste le retour annoncé de Sean Malone au sein du groupe, ce dernier ayant été visiblement enthousiasmé par les démos faites par le groupe aux studios Audiohammer avec Jason Suecof. L'un de ces nouveaux titres: "Integral Birth" est à l'écoute sur le myspace du groupe.

Pour les détails c'est ici

IXXI sign to Candlelight Records
IXXI was formed early 2006, in Stockholm, Sweden. Some pre-recordings where made and in July 2006 the band entered Endarker Studio to record the first self-titled album. In October a video for the track "Ancient Spirits Are" were recorded. In June 2007, almost a year after the recording of the S/T-album it was finally released by Total Holocaust Records.

The very same month, June 2007, IXXI entered Endarker studio once again to record the second opus "Assorted Armament". Selin left the band prior to the recording and was replaced by Smoker but did make a guest-appearance on the track "Armageddon Nobility". The album was released in December 2007 by Sigilla Malae.

GLORIOR BELLI sign to Candlelight Records
GLORIOR BELLI came out from the dark in 2002 with Antares & Infestvvs. The first demo, "Evil Archaic Order" was released in June 2004, followed by the first album "Ô Lavdate Dominvs" in May 2005.

Despite their exquisitely filthy & brutal nature, both records emit a mesmerizing otherworldly resonance that cannot be denied. An ominous rumble & surge. Always moving forward to various points of tension & terror. Raging guitars, violent drums, blood & blasphemies... There are obviously some bestial qualities in their art. The whole thing though has a strangely melodic bent that helps it to stand out from other black metal records, an almost indie-rock quality to the melodies, somehow super catchy while at the same time being suffocatingly black & grim.

The band have already performed some live rituals, including the Blood Soaked Torment tour with Corpus Christii in October 2005 playing alongside bands like Inquisition, Merrimack, Watain, Hell Militia, Paragon Impure, etc...

SEASON GETS CYNICAL!

Season of Mist is really proud to announce that a new cult band just joined the roster. Let's welcome legendary American progressive jazzy death metal band CYNIC! Most of the label's team have been a fan of the band's milestone and so far only album, "Focus", so needless to say we at Season of Mist are all extremely excited about this new collaboration. Here's frontman Paul Masvidal's comment about the signing:

"We're pleased to be back in business with Season of Mist as our record company. They have tremendous enthusiasm and passion for our work. Our bottom line was a company that understood what CYNIC does and believes in it 100%. We found that with SOM. We're deep in the pre-production album process now and will be headed into the studio in a couple weeks to dive even deeper and start the recordings with our talented friend Warren Riker at the engineering / mixing helm. The journey of writing this record has taken Reinert and I to new heights of exploration, straight into the heart of CYNIC's soul. We're thrilled to be able to share this new work with the best fans in the world. Stay tuned."

The release of CYNIC's sophomore album, which will be out on Season of Mist fifteen years after "Focus", is set to next autumn. In the meantime, you can check the band's new MySpace profile www.myspace.com/cyniconline, on which you can hear an excerpt of the demo to the brand new track "Integral Birth"!

Shaped around founding members Paul Masvidal and Sean Reinert, the new line-up sees the return of bass god Sean Malone and the addition of Dutch guitarist Tymon Kruidenier who will also be in charge of 'death' vocals. The band are set to enter the studio this summer with Grammy Award winning Warren Riker (DOWN, SANTANA, etc.) to begin work on their long-awaited follow-up to "Focus". The album will contain eight songs, and the band are working once again with renowned artist Venosa (who created the unmistakeable cover and visuals for "Focus"), and the new album will be preceded by additional live shows, including a special appearance at Wacken Open Air, Germany, on next August 1st.

Season of Mist is happy to inform you that Finnish act CANTATA SANGUI just joined the label's roster. The band's debut album, entitled "On Rituals and Correspondence in constructed Realities", is slated for a late 2008 release. Here's singer Anna's comment on this new collaboration:

"We are happy to release our debut album through Season of Mist, known to support artistic freedom and having the legacy of standing by nonconformist acts. It is great to have a partner lubricating the cog-wheels of Leviathan for us to keep on twisting and sweetly corrupting the conformist genre boundaries with the tentacles of this lunacy sung in blood."

You can already listen to "We'll have it on us", off "On Rituals and Correspondence in constructed Realities".

Discover this amazing, two bass player band on www.myspace.com/cantatasangui and expect more news soon!

SOTHIS sign to Candlelight
Los Angeles based symphonic black metal band, SOTHIS, originally formed in late 1999. The founding members conducted an exhaustive search for Los Angeles' best, seeking like-minded musicians to complete an impressive line-up. Five years later, the band produced a complete line-up and entered the studio to record a four song self-titled demo. This demo would prove to be a critically acclaimed masterpiece that would land the band features in major magazines such as Revolver, Zero Tolerance, and Pit. The demo received almost unanimously stellar reviews, even landing SOTHIS the coveted "Best Independent" release of 2005 in Canada's own Brave Words & Bloody
Knuckles. SOTHIS embarked on a Southwest mini tour in support of the release of the demo and this successful tour would spawn the release of two limited edition live DVDs.

Metal Blade Records signs BISON!

Metal Blade Records is very pleased to announce the signing of Vancouver Canada's BISON, a band just as heavy as the beast they are named after. When BISON took its first step amps were scorched and drums were smashed. Born of the ashes of seminal Vancouver skate-thrash band S.T.R.E.E.T.S., BISON are every headbanger's dream. Their riffs are colossal and flow like a mighty river into a sea of fuzzed out shredding. Their message is punk rock angst and revolution, with the occasional nod to white wizards, the king of swine and a mythical beast called the "Stokasaurus". Their debut album 'Earthbound' captured their massive live sound on tape, garnering international recognition and a deal with Metal Blade Records. BISON is currently recording their Metal Blade debut 'Quiet Earth' with Jesse Gander (3 Inches of Blood, Subhumans, Mass Grave, S.T.R.E.E.T.S.) at The Hive Studios in Burnaby, BC and are currently slated for a fall 2008 release.

Here's what BISON has to say about their new deal with Metal Blade: "We are pleased that our newly forged alliance with the dark lords of the blade has come to fruition. We shall slay with honor and wasted servitude. Using the awesome power of the riff, we shall lay waste, in solidarity with the legions of the righteous soldiers of metal. Now as one, we look to the future to conquer for generations to come."

"BISON has all the ingredients we look for in a successful band; strong work ethic, great live band, good support team and a sound straight out of a BISON stampeded, thundering and brutal" Metal Blade Records

BISON is:
James Farwell – Guitar/Vocals
Dan And – Guitar/Vocals
Masa Anzai – Bass
Brad Mackinnon – Drums

"The name is Bison, and they are heavy as fuck…" – Thrasher Magazine
"...there's no doubting that this Canadian quartet live up to the hefty billing their choice of moniker suggests" – Metal Hammer
"One listen to Earthbound tells you that the group is serious about what its doing, two listens make you forget about hair metal, and by the third listen, even the foppiest of indie-pop fans will remember why amps go up to 10." – The Georgia Straight

Two new US signings on Season Of Mist
Season of Mist hands the world two more solid reasons to either idolize or despise the US. Aligning with powerful new audio assassins, the independent label sees to it that the south rises and reigns over the hard rock / heavy metal plains. These bands of brothers take shape in two forms; the elder, bitter and rejuvenated lifers with nothing left to lose and the young, heavy, hungry southern sons of the mountain's music and moonshine.

THE SIGN OF THE SOUTHERN CROSS

With devastating demos under their sleeves and college degrees finally out of the way and on their wall, this mountain metal quartet is poised and ready to take southern culture and its heavy heritage to the masses. Seeping with infectious riffs, soulful vocals and all-around stump stomping songs, the band's debut, "Of Mountains and Moonshine", will surely lead them to headlining status at summer festivals, commercial radio specialty shows and keg party smoke circles across the country and the world.

The band comments on this new alignment:
"We're beyond excited to begin a long lasting and fruitful partnership with Season of Mist! It's a deep mark of pride to become part of a family which has brought along so many influential artists. Steeped in moonshine and almighty riffs, THE SIGN OF THE SOUTHERN CROSS' music breathes oil into your lungs while it elevates you up the Smokey Appalachia Mountains. As southern boys, we take pride in our past as we trudge on and strive to make our mark in the modern world. This effort is now strengthened by the hand of this heavy record label. We welcome all with the open arms of southern hospitality to this loud- ass, gut-bucket of American heavy metal!"

THE SIGN OF THE SOUTHERN CROSS "Of Mountains and Moonshine" is due out in October 2008. Look for the band on tour late summer, early autumn. Check www.myspace.com/southerncrossband for more information.

OUTLAW ORDER

In May 2008, the US offices of Season of Mist were nearly destroyed due to a deluge of water damage and the resulting attack of black toxic mold. Can this be a direct result of the volume voodoo unleashed by the signing of a certain southern, outlaw organization?

Yeah, sure N'awlins is located in the southern United States but doesn't mean it belongs to it. It is no longer part of the so-called, stereo-typical southern region. They have finally seceded. NOLA is now its own soveriegn nation, leading the rest of the country & even the world in a revolution of extreme music that is unparalleled. Due to the subsequent destruction of the fair hedonistic city by a bitch named Katrina, they have been freed from their restraints to begin a new crime wave in the form of OUTLAW ORDER, the Zero / Zero percent. This group of restless reprobates cultivated under the scrutiny and beat-downs of an oppressive redneck authority. Being well placed members of local New Orleans conspiracists EYEHATEGOD, SOILENT GREEN and HAWGJAW, these gentlemen have united under one negative war banner to blast the system with a twist to the N'awlins sound of rebellion and pollution. A fully realized organization, these null percenters follow no one. They do however wear the Louisiana influence on their black armbanded sleeves and shine a stolen police flashlight into the darkened rooms inhabited by law enforcement cockroaches. This is truly a new seperatist set of rules. Combining their militant safecracking skills with leading sonic boom specialists Season of Mist, the debut record, "Dragging down the Enforcer" is set to explode this Autumn.

Band members and their other illegal affiliations:

Michael D. Williams (EYEHATEGOD, ARSON ANTHEM) - vocals
Brian Patton (EYHATEGOD, SOILENT GREEN) - guitar
Gary Mader (EYEHATEGOD, HAWGJAW) - guitar
Joey LaCaze (EYEHATEGOD) - drums
Justin Grisoli (ex-EYEHATEGOD) - bass
OUTLAW ORDER "Dragging down the Enforcer" is due out in October 2008 with a simultaneous road attack. This is your final warning. Check www.myspace.com/outlaworder for more information

Roadrunner Records is pleased to announce the signing of three eclectic, up and coming new bands to an already diverse roster than includes heavyweights such as Nickelback, Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Dragonforce, and Theory of a Deadman.

Roadrunner welcomes Dommin, Mutiny and Port Amoral to the fold.

Los Angeles-based goth rock quartet Dommin was discovered by Dirty Icon Productions, a company founded by producers Logan Mader, former guitarist of longtime Roadrunner artist Machine Head, and Lucas Banker. Led by the enigmatic frontman, guitarist and songwriter Kristofer Dommin, Dommin puts a uniquely refreshing spin on the romantic, dark goth sound, bringing a unified voice to the brokenhearted, conflicted swarm of melancholic music fans who prefer to look at the glass as half-full. Veteran A&R rep Monte Conner signed the band to the label and was quick to express his excitement, saying, "Dommin comes across as very fresh and unique in today's landscape. Kristofer Dommin is their secret weapon. His vocals are absolutely compelling, and this is especially evident live where you can feel the power, passion and emotion of every word he sings." Dommin's line up is rounded out by keyboardist Konstantine, bassist Billy James and drummer Cameron. Check out the swell of black-hued, stormy and mysterious goth rock and their video clip of fan favorite "My Heart, Your Hands" on the band's heavily trafficked MySpace page. Look for the band's Roadrunner debut, produced by Dirty Icon Productions, this winter.

New Jersey-based Mutiny, a band of young turks who play like a troupe of seasoned shred veterans and who plucked their singer from Blackpool, England, thanks to the wonders of MySpace, have also been added to the label roster. The thoroughly metallic outfit was unearthed and signed by A&R man Mike Gitter, who was blown away by the band's live firepower. Gitter says, "The band was playing at a level so early in its career that most bands never touch. With the addition of [vocalist] Chris Clancy, they verge on unbeatable. Mutiny are truly the graduating valedictorians of Generation Guitar Hero." With members ranging in age from 18 to 23, Mutiny's line up is rounded out by bassist Andrew "AJ" Jacobs, guitarists Brandon Jacobs and Lu Obregon, keyboardist Drew Stavola, and drummer Bill Fiore. The Mutiny crew will spend the next few months toiling diligently in the Jacobs family's basement and they won't come out until they have an absolute metal classic on their hands. Turn your ear to their progressive-for-the-new-generation of metal songs posted at http://www.myspace.com/mutinynj.

Winnipeg, Canada's melodic metal band Port Amoral also joins the Roadrunner family. The group formed in 2004 and is comprised of a tandem of brothers, vocalist/bassist Jared Weiss and guitarist Eric Weiss. The line up is rounded out by guitarist Andrew Campbell and drummer Matthew Hallick. Port Amoral were also signed by Conner, whose interest was initially sparked after hearing demos produced by Canada's John Paul Peters (Comeback Kid, Waking Eyes) and taking in the energetic live show. "Port Amoral know how to craft songs with hooks and smart arrangements and their developed level of writing made me take notice," explains Conner. For a taste of the guitar mastery that turned Conner onto the band, check out a demo of the complex mini-epic "Villains" at www.myspace.com/portamoral. The band will record its Roadrunner debut with Colin Richardson (Bullet for My Valentine, Trivium, As I Lay Dying) for a winter 2009 release.

Metal Blade is proud to announce the signing of Kenosha, Wisconsin's LAZARUS A.D.!

Originally known simply as Lazarus, the band has been pummeling audiences with their brand of modern thrash since the spring of 2005. Have no doubts that LAZARUS A.D. is a Thrash band, but merely in attitude as their sound is no simple throwback to the 80s bay area sound. They breathe a breath of fresh air into modern thrash with intelligent, memorable riffs, mid-tempo grooves, and high-flying solos. In January of 2007, the band recorded 'The Onslaught' with Chris Djuricic (Soil, November's Doom, Michael Angelo Batio) at Studio One. James Murphy (ex-Death, Testament) handled mastering duties and is now re-mixing the album for its worldwide release via Metal Blade Records.

"We are extremely stoked about being a part of the Metal Blade family. It is a great home for us, and we know together we are going to accomplish everything we have set out to do and so much more. When the record is released, I don't think we are gonna see home much, we plan to tour for pretty much the rest of our natural lives!" LAZARUS A.D.

"With the growing number of young aggressive thrash bands rising up across America, we were struck down by the sheer brutality and innovative sound of Lazarus A.D. We brought James Murphy onboard to mix the new album as Metal Blade gets ready to unleash the onslaught that is Lazarus in early 2009." Mike Faley, Metal Blade Records

LAZARUS A.D. is:
Dan Gapen - Lead Guitar/Vocals
Jeff Paulick - Bass/Lead Vocals
Alex Lackner - Rhythm Guitar
Ryan Shutler - Drums

Punish Yourself et 1969 Was Fine signent chez Season Of Mist

Après quatre années de collaboration fructueuse, Punish Yourself quitte Active-Entertainment pour rejoindre Season Of Mist – le seul label basé français capable de leur assurer un réel développement à l’international. C’est sans doute ce qui a toujours manqué au sinistre gang cyberpunk fluo : un relais efficace pour dépasser le succès d’estime reçu à l’étranger par leurs albums précédents, insuffisamment promus/distribués hors des frontières nationales. Il suffit pourtant de passer sur leur page myspace lire quelques commentaires pour voir à quel point le public aux quatre coins du monde est prêt à subir les derniers outrages soniques et visuels… Le groupe est actuellement en train d’enregistrer un nouvel album, Pink Panther Party ; un disque sale, sombre, monumental, produit comme d’habitude par vx « cheerleader » 69 et qui traitera de sujets aussi variés que la politique internationale, le sens ésotérique de la télé réalité, les conspirations de backroom et la réincarnation de Vishnou sous forme de bombe atomique de poche. Attendez vous à une avalanche de beats carrés et de guitares vicieuses… En attendant, Seasons Of Mist réédite la discographie complète du groupe sous forme de trois doubles CDs : Cult Movie/Sexplosive Locomotive ; Gore Baby Gore/The Voodoo Gun Night (live DVD) ; Crypt 1996-2001, qui reprend les deux premiers albums du groupe (Feuer Tanz System et Disco Flesh Warp 99)

Il vous en faut plus ?

Dans les valises de Punish Yourself, Season Of Mist signe aussi leur side-project psychédélique 1969 Was Fine (les quatre PY, leur tour manager à la basse et Cyril Laurent, déjà invité sur Gore Baby Gore et Cult Movie, au sax) pour la sortie de leur premier album longtemps attendu, « … But 666 is alright » (produit lui aussi par vx) en Janvier 2009 – préparez vos oreilles à fondre sous les assauts space-garage-goth’n’roll de ce combo prêt à tout… A classer entre Monster Magnet, Chrome, Suicide et les Cramps !

L’attaque sonique est déjà en route…

Sinon c'est cool pour eux, mais c'est pas vrai que SofM est le seul label français qui peut gérer l'international... y'a Listenable qui le fait très bien aussi.

SOM & HDK

Season of Mist is happy to let you know that the label just inked a deal with new Dutch project HDK, whose main man is no other than AFTER FOREVER co-founder, main songwriter, guitarist, and grunter Sander Gommans. Needless to say, we're very happy to welcome him to the Season of Mist roster! Here's the man's comment:

"I've been working very hard on my project HDK for several years, so it was very important for me to find a label that is specialised in the more extreme side of metal, but also experienced in the style of AFTER FOREVER. I already worked together with Season of Mist when they released the first AFTER FOREVER albums in France, so I know they will do a good job for HDK as well. My project is a mix of all kinds of metal styles, the label has to be able to give it its full attention in order to promote this the right way, and I feel confident Season of Mist is able to do that perfectly!"

HDK's first album is slated for an early 2009 release, so stay tuned for more news soon! You can also check www.myspace.com/sandergommans
