Distorted Sign to Candlelight Records

Distorted had signed a distribution deal with NMC Records (IL) and Bad Reputation (French label) for its debut album, which was released in May 2006 to great plaudits throughout the metal world. Their brand of progressive and melodic death metal found them being compared to bands of the quality of Dark Tranquility, Opeth and Nevermore, all encompassed within a middle eastern flavour thanks to the exotic vocals of lead vocalist Miri Milman.

To promote the release, the band continued to play in their home country and they also played outside of Israel for the first time - touring France, Belgium and Holland with Aborted during February 2007. The band’s next appearance outside their home country will be at the MFVF 5 (Metal Female Voices Festival) in Belgium which will take place at Wieze on 20th October 2007.

Distorted signed a three album, worldwide deal with Candlelight records in July 2007 and are presently working on their second album. Recording is set to start during the end months of 2007 for an early 2008 release.
