Zoroaster signs to a major label!

Yes men!
… Well if you want to get technical about it, Zoroaster has signed on with E1 Music (formerly Koch), which is one of the largest (if not the largest) indie labels in the country, and is distributed the world over. So it’s just as good as a “major.”
And it’s about damn time, too. The so-called loudest band in Atlanta has been working its tail off by touring relentlessly and self-releasing gorgeously packaged LPs on the group-run Terminal Doom Records for a good long while now.
“As much as we love and want to keep doing things ourselves we keep running into road blocks that signing on with a label might help us overcome,” says vocalist/guitarist Will Fiore. “So we figured fuck it. Let’s do it.”
In the meantime whether or not the vinyl version of their latest album, The Voice of Saturn, will materialize on Terminal Doom Records or somewhere else remains to be determined.
The trio of Fiore, Brent Anderson (bass/vocals) and Dan Scanlan (percussion) is currently on the road with Gojira. The group is slated to enter the studio in early 2010 with producer Sanford Parker (The Gates of Slumber, Pelican) to record their label debut which will most likely hit the streets in the summer of 2010.
