Animosity signs with Black Market Activities[views:3278][posts:1]______________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 7:35pm - the_reverend ""] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Animosity signs with Black Market Activities We are proud to announce that San Francisco based death metal /hardcore band Animosity has officially joined the BMA roster. The band will enter Castle Ultimate Studios with engineer Zach Ohren to record their new full length, Empires starting March 9th. Artwork will be handled by Paul Romano (Mastodon, Nasum). According to the group, Empires is a natural and interesting progression from their first disc. "We have matured as musicians and people over our years as a band. We are beginning to find our true musical voice. Empires is an entirely more advanced album in all respects and is more progressive." The group released one previous album on Tribunal Records in 2003 entitled Shut It Down. Look for the band on tour in April with Into the Moat and Psyopus across the US. The band is available to tour for the remainder of this year and we are currently taking tour-packaging suggestions for the rest of 2005. It is unfortunate that we must also announce that the band's rehearsal space in Watsonville, CA was robbed on the evening of February 9th. "All of us are extremely upset and pissed off by this huge setback, but it will not hold us back from rocking," said Animosity front man, Leo Miller. Despite the tragic circumstances, the band is still optimistic about the signing and what the future will bring. "We are proud to be teamed up with some of the best current bands in the underground aggressive music world. BMA is currently the most genuine and dedicated label in our community and with their strong work ethic and close band/label relationship, it was the perfect fit for Animosity." Bands give up their lives to drop everything to give their dreams a shot by taking their show on the road. As many of you know, there is so much overhead and start up expense in touring that traveling musicians tend to be among the poorest people of them all. Anyone willing to steal from those attempting to follow their dreams should be punished severely. Your help in catching these scumbags is extremely appreciated.
