GRIM ORDEAL – Signs With Into The Limelight Records

Dutch metal act GRIM ORDEAL has inked a deal with Into the Limelight Records. A sophomore full length record is slated for release in 2017.

Grim Ordeal provides you with a “straight in your face!” mix of brutal, thrashing and grooving metal with some added progressive elements and a pinch of death and core. Featuring technical guitar work, gruff vocals and tempo fluctuations, Grim Ordeal has created a very unique yet recognizable sound. Grim Ordeal consists of the following members: Otto Donk (vocals), Raymond Groenink (guitar), Edwin Kral (guitar), Bryan Zwiers (bass) and Rob Pol (drums).

Based in the Dutch city of Deventer, Grim Ordeal has been steadily active for a decade. In 2011 they recorded the first 3 song demo, after which a heavy live performance period followed. During that time they played gigs as supports for the likes of Malevolent Creation, Izegrim, The Lucifer Principle, Erebus, The Monolith Deathcult and many more. These efforts culminated in a spot as the sole support for Sacred Reich’s 2012 exclusive BeNeLux club performance in Hedon, Zwolle (The Netherlands).

In July 2014, the band independently released the debut album “A Tragedy Unfolds” and the song “My Kingdom” was chosen as the opening track for compilation album “Metal Inside” Volume 1 released by Big Bad Wolf Records.

It didn’t take long for them to spark interest amongst labels to release the new album in 2017. The choice for Into The LimeLight Records was a logical step. The new album will be released fall 2017. The band and the label are working on a release and marketing plan. The digital and physical distribution will be handled by Soulfood Music Gmbh in Germany.
