Both the band and label are proud to announce a deal that will see them continue to partner together.\n<br \/>\n    \u201cSolid State has always been an important part of Demon Hunter,\u201d said Demon Hunter singer, songwriter and co-founder Ryan Clark. \u201cThey helped market the band before we\u2019d even started writing our first record and they continue to push the band further with each new album. From the very beginning, Solid State has allowed Demon Hunter to do things our own unique way and they\u2019ve become a vital part of the band\u2019s existence. Re-signing was a no-brainer for us.\u201d<br \/>\n<br \/>\n    The first Demon Hunter album emerged in 2002. It\u2019s cover, like all subsequent releases (including their live album), was emblazoned with a now iconic symbol that\u2019s been tattooed, spray painted, sculpted and otherwise creatively displayed by the band\u2019s devoted following ever since. The group blended devastating heaviness with melodic hooks long before it was fashionable.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n    With close to half a million albums sold around the world, Demon Hunter\u2018s unique connection with their fans and steadfast commitment to the presentation, message and musicianship of their output continues to invigorate and inspire. Demon Hunter, Summer of Darkness, The Triptych and Storm the Gates of Hell are all landmarks in the genre. 45 Days chronicled fans across the world (and in the Armed Forces abroad) whose lives have been touched in empowering and breathtaking ways by Demon Hunter\u2018s sound and fury.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n    \u201cI am elated to have the opportunity to continue to work with Demon Hunter,\u201d remarked Solid State \/ Tooth &#038; Nail Records president and founder Brandon Ebel. \u201cDemon Hunter is a core artist for the Solid State \/ Tooth &#038; Nail family. Ryan Clark is an extraordinary songwriter, musician, artist and friend. We\u2019re looking forward to supporting Ryan and the Demon Hunter team on future projects and further developing the Demon Hunter brand worldwide.\u201d<br \/>\n<br <\n    Demon Hunter\u2018s latest album, The World is a Thorn, debuted with the group\u2019s highest placement on the Billboard 200 chart thus far, signifying the continued passion of the \u201cHunters\u201d and the \u201cBlessed Resistance,\u201d as their official fan community is called. They\u2019ve helped introduce bands like August Burns Red, Haste The Day and Oh, Sleeper on their headlining tours. They\u2019ve been a mainstay at major Christian festivals. And last year they were direct support to As I Lay Dying.\n<br \/>\n    With a new batch of songs at the ready, sure to inspire those who\u2019ve drawn close to Demon Hunter classics like \u201cNot Ready to Die,\u201d \u201cFading Away,\u201d \u201cUndying,\u201d \u201cCarry Me Down,\u201d \u201cTie This Around Your Neck\u201d and more, Ryan Clark and Demon Hunter will return to producer \/ longtime collaborator Aaron Sprinkle in November to begin work on what will become their sixth album.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n    \u201cWe\u2019re knee-deep in the writing process and the songs are sounding as intense as ever,\u201d Clark revealed. \u201cWe\u2019ve always made an effort to stay true to our sound, but we like to push the boundaries of that blueprint with each release. These new songs have a lot of varying influences: from viking metal to classic thrash; grooving 90\u2032s rock to stompy hardcore. Our goal, as it is with each record, is to blend these influences into one cohesive but unique Demon Hunter album.\u201d&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/demonhunter\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/demonhunter<\/a><br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: The PRP<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/demonhunter\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/demonhunter<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Den Headz, DEMON HUNTER have re-signed with Solid State and have issued the following press&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=22012"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22012\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=22012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=22012"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=22012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
