Rise Of The Northstar have signed a worldwide license deal with Nuclear Blast Records.
Nuclear Blast owner/CEO, Markus Staiger, signed the group after watching them at the Summer Breeze Open Air Festival. He made the following comments on the signing:
"I was instantly blown away by the sheer power of their live performance! This is the brutality I was looking for! I immediately knew we had to have ROTNS on our roster! It is nothing but impressive what they have achieved in so little time – all on their own. Also this is another proof for the diversity of metal, the scene and our label! Samurai Spirit!"
The band then followed with:
"We are proud of this new venture between our label Repression Records and the biggest independant metal record company Nuclear Blast. ROTNS has spent years fighting like hell in the underground, and the opportunity of partnering with people who understand our artistic vision, respect our indépendant culture, not to mention defend the interests of acts that have influenced our sound, is the right move to take our band to the next level. We are proud of our debut record, and Nuclear Blast's firepower will give this album the global reach that we always aimed for."
The group have finished their debut album, 'Welcame' which was mixed and mastered by producer Zeuss (Madball, Hatebreed, Emmure), and will be released November 21, 2014 via Nuclear Blast.
