Metal Blade Records Signs Visigoth

Metal Blade Records announced the signing of Salt Lake City natives Visigoth. The traditional metal act has been blazing a path through the metal underground since their inception in 2010. The release of the "Vengeance" demo in 2010, and the "Final Spell" EP in 2012 earned the band praise from throughout the underground scene in North America and Europe. The band has entered Boar's Nest Studios to record their full-length debut with Andy Patterson. New album news will be made available soon, and until then, fans can see Visigoth live at select shows in April, May and June. Confirmed shows are on the band's Facebook Page.

According to the press release: "Visigoth plays heavy metal that hearkens back to the golden age of ironclad riffwork and powerful vocals. They pay tribute to the titans of steel that left their mark on the history of the genre, and their earth-shaking sound echoes with a deep reverence for their roots. Visigoth goes above and beyond mere imitation, making their own musical mark on the genre they lovingly embrace. In Visigoth's realm, there are no frills, no gimmicks; there is only heavy metal."
