Metal Blade Records has welcomed back CRIMINAL to the label's worldwide roster.

I've had a very close relationship to the label from when they sent me vinyl promos for my fanzine in the eighties, to when they offered us to release our second album in the U.S. and Europe in the nineties, to when I worked for them myself in the '00s. I'm very good friends with all of their staff, so I'm really happy they asked us to come back, and I am proud to say we are coming back with one of our best records to date!" More details about CRIMINAL's upcoming album will be revealed soon, but in the meantime, Anton has given fans a preview of what to expect: "The new album sounds really pissed off and aggressive.
