DERELICT Sign With Year Of The Sun Records; Announce Debut Album Release Date
April 21, 2009, 15 years ago
Montréal based metallers DERELICT will release their debut album Unspoken Words on May 19th via Year Of The Sun Records. The band just signed with the label, as well as Kerosene Media and are now preparing for a set of Canadian tour dates.
The group is currently streaming tracks from their forthcoming debut online at this location.
"We're really excited about getting this album out on a national scale. We're really proud of Unspoken Words and it's a great feeling to know that there is a label that believes in the music as much as we do," says Derelict's vocalist Eric Burnet. "We've always had as our goal to combine far-ranging elements of metal and music in general, and we feel that with Unspoken Words we've gotten much better at doing that. We'll hit you with some brutal death metal, but infused with catchy melodies surrounded by progressive chaos and completely unexpected influences. I think our sound has diverse enough elements to appeal to fans of GOJIRA, CRYPTOSY or even old school fans of CARCASS. There's something here for every metal fan and that's something that's very important to us.”
Unspoken Words was mixed and mastered by Chris Donaldson (CRYPTOSY, THE AGONIST).
