Danish melodic death metallers COMPOS MENTIS have issued the following update:

"After a long period of contacting labels, discussing back and forth, thinking over various possibilities etc., we have signed a contract with the Danish label Strange Ears who will release our third album, Our Kingdom Of Decay, in Denmark and online on June 22nd.

So why have we chosen Strange Ears? Well, for starters we have previously worked with them in booking matters and have been more than satisfied with their efforts! Mainman Steffen has followed us through many years and it is reassuring to have him represent our music as we know that he is enthusiastic about it.

Another things is that we expect Our Kingdom Of Decay to appeal to a wider audience (but fear not, O metal freaks out there - it might be the most hard-hitting album from Compos Mentis so far!) and therefore it is perfect that Strange Ears is not only a metal label, rather it represents a wide range of different music genres.

In other words we are looking very much forward to collaborating with them! More info on the album itself will follow...

Cover vote / contest...

We have had two covers made for the new album, one with a portrait of The Little Mermaid and one with Holger Danske. For this reason we are running a vote / contest, where you can send us your opinion on which cover you like best and which one you would like to see on Our Kingdom Of Decay.

Visit ourkingdomof.dk to see the cover artworks, state your opinion and, hopefully, win CD's and t-shirts!

Concerts...

We have begun booking concerts for the autumn and so far it seems to be going just fine! A mini-tour with SCAMP and DESTROYERBOY is being set up as we speak and more is to come.

For now, however, only the following concert is confirmed and official: June 27th - Kloeften Festival, Haderslev."
