MASSACRE Sign Deal With Nuclear Blast Records
April 20th, 2021

Florida-based death metal band Massacre have signed an album contract with Nuclear Blast Records, confirming this development on April 20th, 2021.

Regarding the deal, vocalist Kam Lee said: “I would first like to give my appreciation to Nuclear Blast for signing Massacre. It’s a long time dream of mine to be a part of the metal family under the Nuclear Blast flag and I am even more so grateful that it’s with my signature band. We have a lot of plans for the future of Massacre, and what a great place to be making such a proper return other than one of the best independent metal labels in the world.”

Bassist Michael Borders added: “It’s a privilege at this point in our careers to be associated with the big name in metal labels. We did our best to make this a proper Massacre release, an authentic sounding representation of a band we started over 30 years ago.”

Meanwhile, Nuclear Blast’s U.S.A. general manager Gerardo Martinez stated: “For many of us at Nuclear Blast, Massacre is one of our favourite bands, and instrumental in the formative years of death metal and with their debut album alone. It paved the way to many artists to follow. It’s an honour to be working a brand new record with Kam Lee on vocals after nearly 30 years!”

The band’s as-yet-untitled fourth full-length studio album is slated for release in Autumn 2021.

Massacre’s line-up is as follows:

Kam Lee (vocals, Akatharta / Nattravnen / ex-Bone Gnawer)
Mike Borders (bass)
Rogga Johansson (guitar, Paganizer / Rib Spreader / Revolting / Johansson & Speckmann / Dead Sun)
Jonny Pettersson (guitar, Ashcloud / Gods Forsaken / Wombbath / Nattravnen / Henry Kane)
Scott Fairfax (guitar, Memoriam / As The World Dies)
Brynjar Helgeton (drums, Crypticus / Johansson & Speckmann / Just Before Dawn / Gods Forsaken)

Third studio record Back From Beyond was released in March 2014 via Century Media Records.
