Hong Kong label Nowed Records announce signing of NYC metal band Vibrater.
“NYC metal band Vibrater have inked a deal with Nowed Music Records for their debut studio album, titled “New Era Of Terror” scheduled for worldwide release on Tuesday May 16. Featuring fierce artwork by David Moreno, the band’s 10-track label debut was recorded, mixed and mastered with Jesse Ketive (ex-Emmure) .With the announcement, the band has also released a brand new song, “It’s The Move,” and music video.
Emerging from the depths of New York City and featuring founding members of industrial metal veterans Bile, newly formed hardcore metal band Vibrater are ready to take back their position as front runners & innovators in the global theatrical metal scene with their debut album. Vibrater combines the styles of EDM-influenced metal with old school punk and hardcore origins to create a sound that is altogether heavy and unforgiving.
Vocalist Kirk “Slash” Farrington comments: “After not seeing one another together in decades, we started talking. I was already working on music with Jesse Ketive and after bringing them up to speed we all thought it would be awesome to reunite fully and collaborate on new material and in addition to what Jesse and I had already started. Before we knew it, we had recorded a 10 track blistering and ultra-brutal melodic masterpiece!”
Farrington adds, “I’ve always admired Jesse’s signature seven-string sound and knowledge of the perfect melodic-yet-brutal song structure like no other. He’s basically the breakdown master, so when I had the opportunity to collaborate on this new venture with him, I knew it would be mind blowing.”
Ketive adds, “[Vibrater plays] a mix of new and classic sounds and vibes, ranging from beatdown to electronic insanity. This should be a fun ride in the pit!”
Nowed Music Records head of A&R and label manager Kent Tong: “Vibrater is the band we’ve been waiting for.They have taken hardcore back to its roots; crushing riffs, huge choruses and consistent pummeling rhythms.We’re super excited to be working with a band that is as unique as visionary!”
