| Tuesday, May 25, 2010 - Virgin Steele Signs With SPV/Steamhammer | SPV/Steamhammer has announced the signing of U.S. metallers Virgin Steele.The worldwide deal includes the release of a new studio album, which is due by the end of October 2010, and the reissue of the band's entire back catalogue - from "Noble Savage" onwards. The back catalogue will be made available throughout 2011, with faithfully restored covers and booklets, bonus tracks and liner notes.
Commented Olly Hahn, A&R at Steamhammer: "It's an honour for me and the label that David DeFeis (vocals) decided to make his march to the Olympus with us. The band deserve to stay on top of the metal genre and we are more than willing to pave the way together with the band!"
DeFeis added: "We are honoured & proud to announce that we have just signed a new recording contract with the Hannover, Germany-based label Steamhammer/SPV Records. The incredible dedication and commitment to our genre and the understanding of what Virgin Steele is really all about convinced us that this was the true home for the band. In a way, we have actually come full circle, because when 'Noble Savage' came out, it was in fact released on Steamhammer/SPV, so it is a kind of homecoming for us. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with SPV, and in fact we are planning on issuing the new album this coming autumn.
BY THE GODS... there is a ton of work to do!" |
