Aliases, the brainchild of former Sikth guitarist Graham ‘Pin’ Pinney have announced their recent signing to UK metal label, Basick Records.
The musical project came into fruition earlier this year after Pinney’s original and most noted band, tech metallers Sikth called it a day back in 2008.
“We are interested only in taking Metal on a new and limitless path, allowing the music and vocals to grow organically and exist outside the common constraints of a single genre,” Pinney said recently.
In addition, Nathan Phillips, founder of Basick Records stated the following in the official press release:
“Working with bands that push the boundaries to create a new definition for Metal, is what Basick strives for, so when I heard that Pin was cooking up a new project after the demise of SikTh, my ears naturally pricked up.
After hearing all the demos and then subsequently having my face ripped off by ALIASES’ live show at Euroblast in Germany, I just knew that we had to sign them.
Not only has Pin managed to improve upon the insanity element of his former output, he’s also managed to put together a band of outstanding musicians that totally complement this interesting and complex music. So, after a few meetings and phone calls, we finally convened at the first ALIASES show in the UK and consecrated the deal over a healthy amount of Jägermeister.
I’m totally stoked to have the opportunity to work with a band who are creating music for all the right reasons and I can’t wait to release their debut EP and Album!”
Aliases is completed by guitarist Leah Woodward, drummer Darren Pugh, bassist Joe Heaton and vocalist Jay Berast.
The band’s yet-to-be-named debut EP is set for release early next year.
