IMPIOUS recruited by METAL BLADE records! - 12 February 2004
Metal Blade proudly announces the signing of Swedish Death/Thrashers IMPIOUS!
IMPIOUS have released three albums so far, on Black Sun and Hammerheart Records. “We saw the band live when they toured with Necrophobic in early 2003 and they kicked MAJOR ASS! We see many shows each year, but this was one of the few moments we felt completely blown away”, says a spokesperson of Metal Blade Europe. “We didn?t get into the albums they released before very much, but the pre-production with five brand new songs they sent us in late 2003 showed an explosion in songwriting and intensity. Much, no, MUCH better than all their previous stuff!”
IMPIOUS hail from Trollhattan, Sweden – the city that already brought the Deathrace Kings THE CROWN to the world of Metal. The music of this quintet is an intense and sharp combination of Death and Thrash Metal!
“We are very excited about signing to Metal Blade. To be on the same roster as some of the finest bands in the extreme metal industry just feels fucking awesome. Very few record labels have such a good reputation, such an amazing history, and such a bright future. We’re definitely looking forward to be a part of all that”, says guitarist Valle Adzic about the new collaboration.
IMPIOUS will continue writing new songs and plan to head into the studio in the summer – their Metal Blade debut should be released in October 2004. Stay tuned!
IMPIOUS line-up:
Martin Akesson – vocals
Valle Adzic- guitars
