German thrash metallers DEW-SCENTED have signed a European deal with Metal Blade Records for the release of their upcoming, still untitled new studio album.

The band comments the signing as follows: "We are happy to finally be able to announce that we have just signed a new deal with Metal Blade for Europe! We have known the European staff at Metal Blade for many years already and considering the label's massive history in Metal as well as the fact that their current repertoire includes several cool bands that we have toured with throughout the years like Amon Amarth, Cannibal Corpse or God Dethroned, we look forward to this new co-operation and are excited about the release of our next album, which we will be recorded in the coming weeks.“

Andreas Reissnauer of Metal Blade Europe adds: “Dew-Scented is a driving force in European thrash metal. A band that delivered excellent records through the years and that is always giving 110 % on stage. Being fans and friends of the band since day one we are excited to finally be able to work with Dew-Scented in the future. The best is yet to come!”

Dew-Scented are entering Soundlodge Studios in Northern Germany in February with producer Jörg Uken (GOD DETHRONED, SINISTER, etc.), who has previously engineered the band's latest album Incinerate in 2007, to record their long-awaited new studio album. A release date is planned for May 2010.
