CHIMAIRA Sign With eOne Music; New Album Due This Year
January 24, 2011, 13 years ago
Veteran Cleveland metal act CHIMAIRA has signed a new record deal with eOne Music for North America, South America and Japan.
"We would like to thank Scott Givens and eOne. We are excited to start the new decade with a team that believes in our music, has our back and thinks outside the box. eOne are one of the very few labels out there who still give a damn about the genre and Chimaira are proud to be a part of that. Expect great things in 2011," says frontman Mark Hunter.
Chimaira released their album, The Infection, back in 2009 with hit singles 'Secrets Of The Dead' and 'Destroy And Dominate', which claimed the #30 spot on the Billboard Top 200 chart. Their most recent effort was a three disc live DVD, which also features a documentary about the band called Coming Alive.
Over the past ten years, the band has sold close to 500,000 albums. The band is currently in the studio working on their next full length, which will be released later this year.
Chimaira is Mark Hunter (vocals), Matt DeVries (guitar), Rob Arnold (guitar), Andols Herrick (drums) and Chris Spicuzza (keyboards, samples, backing vocals ).
