Degradead

Degradead signed to Dockyard 1

Swedes Degradead have inked a record deal with German label Dockyard 1.
Jesper Strömblad of IN FLAMES announces them as ”The Future of Metal” – and he knows what he's talking about! Jesper took notice of them with their demo album 'Death Row' and offered them to work with him.
Degradead took their chance and went down to Gothenburg and recorded their debut 'Til Death Do Us Apart' in IF Studios. The album was produced by a team – calling themselves H.O.R.D.E, mixed and engineered by Björn Gelotte and co-engineered by Jesper Strömblad and Daniel Svensson. Result of the recordings is a piece of finest Melodic Death Metal – finding the perfect balance between Death, Thrash and catchy melodies, with their already very own signature.
The release of 'Till Death Do Us Apart' is scheduled for January 28th 2008. Make sure to go on their Myspace and check out the first two tracks of that album – the Melodic Death Metal reference 'Genetic Waste' and the rather thrashy 'Take Control' with a dot of songwriting from Metallica to Children Of Bodom.
A tour is planned for 2008 with Dimension Zero. And that's just the beginning - be sure to hear a lot more of Degradead!
