JUNIUS Signs With Prosthetic Records
March 8, 2011, 13 years ago
Prosthetic Records has announced the signing of Boston's JUNIUS, described by Rolling Stone as, "a perfect hybrid of NEUROSES and THE SMITHS."
The band, formed in 2003, has previously released material on Radar Recordings and The Mylene Sheath, amongst others and will begin work on their third full length this spring.
Junius has an extensive touring history in North America and Europe, and has shared stages with the likes of MASTODON, BAD RELIGION, VALIENT THORR, HOWL, ORBS, ROSETTA, TOMBS, GOD IS AN ASTRONAUT, IREPRESS and many others.
The band will be appearing at Austin's South By Southwest Festival next week, and have April dates in Europe.
Junius commented: "We've been excited about working with Prosthetic since meeting most of the guys in LA on tour last year. We're grateful that we seem to have good luck in finding people who are equally passionate, motivated and most importantly, believe in what we're doing enough to commit their time and effort to allow us to continue doing what we love to do. We're definitely looking forward to some very exciting and interesting years ahead!"
