Victory Records signs As They Burn

Victory Records have announced that they have signed a deal with French progressive metalcore band As They Burn.

The label had the following to say about the band:

"Emerging from the streets of Paris, France, As They Burn was formed by bassist Ronald Pastor, guitarist Fabio Meschini and drummer Milton Bakech in 2007. Vocalist Kévin Traore, known for his chillingly aggressive vocals, was enlisted shortly thereafter along with guitarist Hoby Arinosy. As They Burn was complete and ready to bring their music to the masses. Their first album "Aeon's War" was digitally released on June 20, 2011 and was the start to a colorful beginning. The band recently added Bastien Jacquesson on keys/ machines, finalizing their lineup as they prepare for their Victory Records’ debut album, due out in early 2013. They've honed in on their skills and sound to bring fans a powerful and intense album that demonstrates fierce vocals, insane rhythms and catchy melodies that will captivate the metal community worldwide."

Bakech comments, "Being part of the Victory Records family is such a great pleasure and honor. We've been giving it our best for a long time trying to make our dreams come true. We want to thank everyone who has supported us over the years. This means the people behind, on and in front of the stage, you are a part of this and it is just the beginning! Love is the law."
