On a moonless night, metal powerhouse Nuclear Blast dared to gaze into the pitch black abyss and summoned one of the most vicious and menacing forces roaming the European death metal scene to join their ranks. Both of them are proud to announce that ABORTED have inked a contract with Nuclear Blast!
ABORTED have announced their first single right in time for the kick-off of their North American Tour with LORNA SHORE. “Infinite Terror” will come to haunt your dreams, destroy your ears and musically seal the devilish deal that Nuclear Blast and ABORTED have closed to spread the word of brutal death metal all around the world!
Sven de Caluwé comments: “We couldn’t be more excited to announce our signing to Nuclear Blast — one of the premier labels for extreme music with tons of label mates we love. We are very excited to see where this mad caravan leads to next! After a very long and solid partnership with Century Media, it was time for us to try something new.To celebrate our signing with Nuclear Blast and the upcoming monster of a tour with our friends LORNA SHORE, INGESTED and more, we decided to unleash a new single. ‘Infinite Terror’ will obliterate all your senses on October 19th. The song is inspired by ‘Event Horizon’ and marks the debut of new guitarist Dan Konradsson (OPHIDIAN I, UNE MISÉRE). Expect something dark, imposing, and HEAVY as fuck!”
Jaap Wagemaker, A&R Nuclear Blast Europe, adds: “Nuclear Blast is very excited to announce the signing of Brutal Death Metal maniacs ABORTED. ABORTED is one of the pioneers of the genre. Originally founded in Belgium, they have come a long way from the death/grind underground to creating a very successful, unique brand of horror-themed, cinematic extreme metal that’s highly compatible with today’s tech death and deathcore scenes. ABORTED have influenced a lot of bands worldwide, and for many bands being invited to go on tour with ABORTED meant the start of a successful career. ABORTED worked on their status even more by releasing classics such as ‘The Necrotic Manifesto’ and ‘Retrogore’ which somehow managed to surpass that album and showcased what the band is capable of: lifting Death Metal to a higher level of intensity, atmosphere and brutality. Nuclear Blast and ABORTED are looking forward to keep pushing the boundaries of high class Brutal eath metal together in the future!”
