October 16th, 2019

Gothenburg, Sweden-based melodic metal band Amaranthe have signed an album contract with Nuclear Blast Records, confirming this development on October 16th, 2019.

Guitarist Olof Mörck commented: “It feels amazing to unveil our cooperation with the giants at Nuclear Blast! Ever since we held our shiny new Nuclear Blast CDs in our teenage hands back in the mid-90s, they have been at the forefront of bringing the best of the best to the metal scene, and to have them as partners is a dream come true! They are not only massively experienced in the metal scene, but also wonderful people and it has been a pleasure getting to know them. We are already nailing down great plans for the future, and things are looking brighter and stronger for Amaranthe than ever! Keep your eyes open for our next leap forward together in the near future!”

Nuclear Blast Records’ Managing Director Marcus Hammer added: “We’re more than happy to welcome Amaranthe and Kult Management to the Nuclear Blast family. I’ve already been following the group for a while as they’ve been touring with some of their new label mates. Being both great musicians and humans, that have a clear vision and are supported by an experienced team in the back, it was a no-brainer to try to win this outstanding band for our roster. Now we’re stoked to be the new partner at their side pursuing one goal: adding a successful next chapter to their already shiny career. The future looks bright for both, Amaranthe and Nuclear Blast.”

Amaranthe’s line-up is as follows:

Elize Ryd (clean vocals)
Nils Molin (clean vocals)
Henrik Englund Wilhemsson (harsh vocals)
Olof Mörck (guitar and keyboards)
Johan Andreassen (bass)
Morten Løwe Sørensen (drums)

Fifth studio record Helix was released in October 2018 via Spinefarm Records.
