Metal Blade Records has announced the signing of the Slovenian thrashers NEGLIGENCE.

Negligence was formed in 2000 by Dyz and Jey, two excellent Slovenian guitarists who shared the same passion for music and decided to start working together. They soon found a proper and stable line-up and played lots of shows in their homeland Slovenia including a gig at the infamous Metal Camp festival. Between 2003 and 2005 they also released three unnamed demos.

2005 marks a turning point in the history of Negligence when they parted ways with their old singer and presented the 15-year old Alex as their new frontman. The band gathered a bigger fanbase and in 2007 Negligence independently released their debut album Options Of A Trapped Mind. The album opened many new doors for the group and got a good reception amongst metal fans and received great reviews worldwide. Following the release, the band went on to promote their album supporting some of the biggest acts in metal, such as EXODUS, FORBIDDEN, HEATHEN, SADUS and DEATH ANGEL among others.

At the end of 2009, long-time member Dyz parted ways with the band but was still part of the pre-production for the second album Negligence recorded. The folks at Metal Blade were all excited about what they heard and signed Negligence right away.

Comments the band: “We are very, very proud to become a member of one of the greatest metal record labels in the world and will proudly carry the flag of true metal enthusiasts and metal gurus which is Metal Blade Records!”

As we speak Negligence are busy with the mix of their second album which will be entitled Coordinates Of Confusion. More production details will be announced shortly.

Negligence have recently found a second guitar player – his name is Aljo - who will help increasing the sheer power the band is able to deliver on stage!

Coordinates Of Confusion is set for release for a late summer 2010 release.

Negligence is:

Alex - vocals

Jey – guitars

Aljo - guitars

Lipnik - bass

Ruzz - drums
