BLOOD EAGLE – Sign With Nuclear Blast Records

Danish death metal act BLOOD EAGLE have signed a deal with Nuclear Blast Records. The group features current and former members of Mnemic, Volbeat, Hatesphere, Illdisposed, and Raunchy.

Blood Eagle comment: “We are honored to have signed with one of the world’s leading record labels, Nuclear Blast Records! The excitement level of Blood Eagle finally finding the right home to release new material, is higher for us than we can ever express. There are people who want to hear this band, as was evident in the reaction to our performances on multiple European festivals in the last couple of years. We are excited and grateful to be working with the guys at Nuclear Blast, as they will help facilitate and take the Eagle to the next level with strength. On a musical note, we took all our inspirations from Napalm Death, Bolt Thrower, Morbid Angel, and a tad (like 2% Mastodon) and threw them into the musical cooking pot. The result is our new release.”

The band’s new album, To Ride In Blood & Bathe In Greed I, II, III will be released as three EPs, today (September 20), October 18, and November 22 via Nuclear Blast.

The band recorded in total 5 songs with Tue Madsen at the Antfarm Studios in April 2012, but chose to release only 3 of them.
