In the midst of an extraordinary career as drummer for multiple heavy metal legends such as FIFTH ANGEL, HEIR APPARENT and NIGHTSHADE, Jeffrey McCormack was thrown a curveball. It was suggested that Jeffrey hum some melody lines on demo material he had been working on with Seattle guitarist Craig Church. It was immediately and overwhelmingly decided that Jeffrey would become the lead vocalist for the band, which got named SCREAMS OF ANGELS. Once the material had solidified, they recruited Jeffrey’s longtime friend, Kai Chinn to take over the drum duties, followed shortly after by bassist Anthony Rivera, rhythm guitarist Rollie Fisher, and former HEIR APPARENT bandmate Op Sakiya on keyboards, all veterans of the historic Seattle heavy metal community. Though the band seemed complete, guitarist Craig Church became increasingly busy with his other musical endeavors, including guitar duties with Pamela Moore (Sister Mary from QUEENSRŸCHE's Operation: Mindcrime), so he resigned his post. Enter Alan Nesbitt on lead guitar, and the band was ready to bring its energetic brand of melodic power metal to the masses.

Screams Of Angels debut album Into The Warzone has been scheduled for release on December 27th, via Skol Records. The album is comprised of a collection of high-energy metal anthems such as its title track, a fast paced homage to Marvel comics The Punisher, the galloping epic 'Cycle Of The Moon' and the snarling metal monster 'Eyes Of The Serpent'. Into The Warzone - like all other Skol Records releases - will be distributed in North and South America via Shadow Kingdom Records. Title track is also available as a free single and can be downloaded from this location.
