Agent Steel Ink Deal With Mascot Records

California-based metallers AGENT STEEL have inked a deal with Holland's Mascot Records.

The label has issued the following: "Mascot Records has inked a deal with legendary metal band Agent Steel to further strengthen it’s growing metal roster. The band are currently in the process of finalizing the songs for the new (yet to be titled) album that will be produced by Bill Metoyer (SLAYER, DARK ANGEL, HELSTAR). Release is scheduled for first quarter of 2007 with a tour (with label mates VICIOUS RUMORS) starting in March."

Guitarist Juan Garcia states, "The recording of the new album is coming along great; vocals are finished and sound killer! Guitar tones are heavy! Drums tracks are solid as ever! And the bass tone will make Cliff Burton proud. Ten new songs, some minor touch ups and some guitar solos still need to be completed before Bill Metoyer mixes down the new tracks.“
