Die amerikanischen Tech-Death-Pioniere ATHEIST haben einen weltweiten Vertrag mit Agonia Records abgeschlossen. Das neue Studioalbum der Truppe – und damit der Nachfolger des 2010 erschienenen „Jupiter“ – soll Mitte bis Ende 2018 erscheinen.
ATHEIST-Mitbegründer, Sänger und Gitarrist Kelly Shaefer, gibt zu Protokoll:
„2018 will mark our 30th year of making records. ATHEIST will embark on a very important album with an important new label along with a great team behind us, including Extreme Management Group. I feel confident that together, and with their anticipated dedication to bringing ATHEIST to a new level, the band will be poised for a crushing, new record! We cannot wait to begin this new chapter“.
Agonia Records zeigen sich ebenso beglückt:„We’re beyond excited to welcome ATHEIST to our roster. This is a band of extreme talent and bold creativity, a band lauded for their invaluable contribution to the death metal genre. They’ve been there in the early years and paved the way for countless acts playing progressive/technical death metal nowadays. We feel honoured to help them pave the way for next generations to come“.
