Rancor
Rancor sign with Xtreem Music; 2nd album 'Dark Future' out in April
Spanish thrashers Rancor have signed a deal with Xtreem Music for the immediate release of their sophomore album 'Dark Future' which was recorded during the last months of 2012 by the band themselves under the production of their guitarist Vasco Durán being mixed and mastered at Rock Lab Studios by Dan Díez.
In March 2nd, the band released a mini CD entitled 'Raining Bombs' containing an unreleased song from the same sessions as well as an album track ('Dark Future') plus two old re-recorded song. This EP is exclusively sold only through the band on their official website and live shows.
'Dark Future' contains 9 slabs of intense thrash metal in its purest form, blending aggressive riffing with a great sense of melody creating memorable songs dragging varied influences that might remind you to bands like Mortal Sin, Overkill, Slayer, old Metallica, Testament, early Annihilator and the Bay Area sound. Album cover art has been made by comic artist Vito Sicilia, who did an awesome job which for sure is a plus for this brilliant album.
Rancor is already working on upcoming shows to present 'Dark Future', some of them supporting (again) UK's legend Onslaught.
Release date for 'Dark Future' is scheduled for April 15th. You can visit the band's official website at www.rancor.es or their Facebook at www.facebook.com/RancorThrash, and also listen to an advance song on the following link: http://youtu.be/NMwtoIg4OpY
