7TH PLAGUE To Sign With METAL BLADE RECORDS

February 3, 2006

Cleveland's 7TH PLAGUE have accepted an offer from Metal Blade Records for a four-album recording contract. The band will be signing the record deal on Wednesday, February 8 during a dinner at Westlake, Ohio's Dave and Busters and are extending an invitation to all interested press to come to the signing.

7TH PLAGUE came into full form in July of 2004. All of the members are currently 17 years old, still in high school and have made huge advances with their music and talents in less than two years. In a short amount of time the band has performed with bands such as CHIMAIRA, MACHINE HEAD, DEVILDRIVER, THE HAUNTED, BYZANTINE, ALL THAT REMAINS, THE AGONY SCENE, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD, CHILDREN OF TRAGEDY, STILL REMAINS, and others.

Recently, the band completed a demo with Hardcore Marketing in-house producer Don Debiase (GATLIN, APG). The band then had their manager Neil Sheehan from HM, Inc. shop the demo to several record labels. In October of 2005 the band learned through Sheehan that Metal Blade was putting an offer in on the band. In January 2006 the band received initial copies of their negotiated contracts and accepted the mutually agreed upon terms.
