Unearth have left Metal Blade Records to hop on EOne Music for their upcoming release later on this year! A release that will feature a certain Lamb of God member.
About the label change, vocalist Trevor Phipps said:
A new chapter has begun for Unearth as we have found a few new places to call home. By joining forces with eOne (North America), Century Media (Europe), Howling Bull (Japan) and 3Wise (Australia) we will have a more focused attack from some of the most well known and respected labels in the world. We know this new beginning of sorts will bring bigger and better things for Unearth and our fans and we couldn't be more excited for the future of all things Unearth. We are currently in the studio recording some of the most aggressive, anthemic and energized metal we have ever written and we look forward to unleashing it to you all when it is finished. Expect to hear more about our new album, release dates and future world wide touring plans later this summer.
Sweet deal. At least the band are happy with the switch and there's not any bad blood between them and Metal Blade. That, and it's nice to see that they'll be getting a little more exposure with the new label! Hooray reaching audiences! Oh, and then guitarist Buz McGrath tweeted this picture of Lamb of God's Mark Morton playing bass on the record record for a bass solo. Why Mark Morton and, I don't know, Lamb of God's bassist? I have no idea, but I'll be damned if that doesn't reek of potential coolness.
