The cult US metalheads Axemaster from Ohio, which are surely well-known to friends of American steel with Blessing in the Skies and Death before Dishonor, have signed a worldwide deal with us. The new album is entitled Overture to Madness and will be probably released in 1st quarter of 2015.
Bandstatment:
Both the production of and release plans for the new Axemaster album have been long and challenging tasks; but this deal is obviously a HUGE step toward the release of "Overture to Madness" (a goal that has taken a lot of time and effort). Located in Germany, Pure Steel is a HIGHLY respected company internationally. So with Axemaster's past accomplishments and fan base, it's a perfect combination of band and label!
Guitarist Joe Sims said: "We are really proud to be signed with a great company like Pure Steel and be label-mates with classic bands like Omen and Halloween. It's fitting that the label is from Germany because the fans from that part of the world have always been some of the most loyal supporters of Axemaster! I have always said that our new material really deserves to be released, distributed, and promoted properly by a good company, and it's great to know that that's definitely going to happen!!!"
We will surely continue to keep everyone updated on the progress of the album as well as any important band news...........
LINE-UP:
Geoff McGraw - vocals, rhythm guitars
Joe Sims (Dream or Nightmare, ex-Inner Terror, ex-Reign, ex-The Awakening, ex-Latem) - lead guitars
Denny Archer (ex-Reign) - drums
Jim Curtis (ex-Inner Terror) bass
