The Swedish Heavy Metal blood brothers of ENFORCER recently signed a new worldwide record deal with Nuclear Blast Records. Their new album is called Death By Fire and will be released on February, 1st.

Bandleader, vocalist and guitar player Olof Wikstrand comments: “It feels great to finally have finished this long-awaited third ENFORCER record. Now with Nuclear Blast on board we’re gonna make sure to spread it to every corner of this planet. You can expect nothing but the total, self defining ENFORCER record.”

Nuclear Blast head of A&R, Andy Siry says: “We’ve been following the career of ENFORCER since their debut album, because from there on, they formed the spearhead of a new, young generation of traditionally influenced Metal. We’re impressed by the bands consequent and authentic appearance, whether on stage, concerning their sound, their image and so on. This reminds of the atmosphere of departure and the rebellion, Heavy Metal represented at the beginning of the 80’s. ENFORCER have got that special something, represent their ideals and they know what they want. We’re looking forward to the upcoming CD and a long successful cooperation.”

2012-11-30 – HARDCORE SUPERSTAR – Swedish inventors of what is known and loved today as “Street Metal” – are happy to announce the release of a new album via Nuclear Blast in early 2013! The record is entitled C’mon Take On Me, was produced by the band, mixed by no less a figure than Randy Staub (METALLICA, MÖTLEY CRÜE, THE CULT) and will be out on the 1st of March 2013.

The band comments on the recording process: “We found this cool abandoned studio that we took over, where we spent the entire summer tracking songs in between the shows. Speaking of shows – we’ll start rehearsing in January so that we’ll be ready to play live everywhere again soon. If there’s a stage, we’ll rock it!!!”

Sacred Steel - The Bloodshed Summoning - promo cover pic!

SACRED STEEL is..

…Come on! You know who SACRED STEEL is!

What more should be said about them? Do we really need to introduce a band that has been on Metal Blade and Massacre Records, that has released eight full length albums and an additional three EPs?

Let’s just say that the new album is called The Bloodshed Summoning and comes four years after their 2009 release Carnage Victory, but for old and new fans of SACRED STEEL, this one is well worth the long wait.

The Bloodshed Summoning concentrates as  lethal s dose of heavy riffing and aggression as any serious Metal release should be made of, with moments that border on the edge of Thrash Metal.

The Bloodshed Summoning will be released February 16th  2013 through Cruz Del Sur Music on compact disc with three bonus tracks, (including one Misfits cover), limited edition vinyl and digital formats.
