Mercenary Statement, July 2nd 2004: ( taken from www.mercenary.dk)
"We are extremely proud and honoured to be able to announce that we have
entered a multi-album worldwide deal with Century Media Records. Signing
with the label has always been a dream for us - not only as a label but as a
statement that Mercenary has entered a new rank in the world of Metal Music.
Century Media Records is and has always been a stamp of approval and quality
and we will make our very best efforts in every area to live up to this
compliment shown to us by The Century Family!"
Century Media Statement July 2nd - 2004:
MERCENARY: Emerging initially in the '90s and after multiple line-up changes
and stylistic re-definitions, it was their classy 2002 album "Everblack"
that garnered MERCENARY worldwide praise and attention. The Danish band
developed a name by mixing elements from both epic Power Metal and
progressive passages with melodically aggressive Thrash/Death Metal rhythms.
Their multi-layered vocals that range from clean signing to extreme
shouting give the band a unique edge, always suitably supported by walls of
atmospheric keyboards. Developing their trademark sound a step further,
MERCENARY have managed to create a very own and challenging metallic style
with their new album "11 Dreams", to be released August 23rd through Century Media Records in Europe.
Guitarplayer Jakob Mølbjerg comments on the newly signed deal as follows:

"11 Dreams" comes with a crystal clear production courtesy of Jacob Hansen
(Hatesphere, Invocator, Raunchy, etc.), stylish artwork by Niklas Sundin
(Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, Arch Enemy, etc.) and includes a surprising
cover version of Kent's hit-single "Music Non Stop". Fans of stand-out bands
like Nevermore, Angel Dust, Evergrey, Into Eternity and others along those
lines will nod with approval about the extremely high quality offering delivered by MERCENARY.
