Morbid Angel splits with Earache

[NAD]

From Morbidangel.com:

Morbid Angel and World Management would like to clear the air with the announcement that after more than 15 years and 9 albums and one EP the band and Earache Records have parted ways on future recordings. We will be exploring all interested labels as well as other options and and will make a decision on a new release for 2005 in the next few months. Currently we are still in the final phases of tour commitments for Heretic. We wish Earache continued success in selling our catalogue and have an obvious professional vested interest in this. We wish to thank all of the Earache employees past and present for their work on Morbid Angel’s releases. We are looking forward with excitement to the future.

They were one of the original Earache bands weren't they?

Off to Century Media they go...

Fuck that, Sanctuary needs to step up to the fucking plate. I don't know I just think they are of that caliber. But to answer Nad's question, they were one of the premier Earache bands.

So we lost some more label mates... No chance for free Morbid Angel tickets in the future for me then . Oh, well. Hope they find a good home.

They'll probably end up on Nuclear Blast to everyone's chagrin, when they're not hawking genericism they try to pull in the veteran defectors...

unsumed ... I like your band ... I am a sucker for melodic, catchy tunes and you definetelly fit the bill

As far as MA, wish a new label and some good producer would pump some fresh blood into them.
