I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN SIGN TO EPITAPH .

I was already a fan of Australian metalcore band, I Killed The Prom Queen so to hear that they have signed to Epitaph and are working on their next album due for release in 2014 was great news! 

Here's what guitarist and songwriter of the band, Jona Weinhofen (Briefly a member of Bring Me The Horizon) had to say about the news: 

“We are absolutely ecstatic to join the Epitaph Records family. Having worked with the label previously with Bring Me The Horizon, I knew exactly what Epitaph was capable of and that it would be the perfect home for I Killed The Prom Queen. Epitaph is already the home to so many of our heroes such as Converge, Refused, Pennywise and Every Time I Die, and has helped launch our good friends Parkway Drive, The Ghost Inside, Day Of Contempt, Letlive. and more. To say that we are a part of this family is truly an honour.”
 


They have been working on and recording their album in Gothenburg, Sweden which seems like the ideal place as it has definitely seen it's fair share of metal bands over the years. In addition to that they have been working with Fredrik Nordström who has been a part of the production for other metalcore and hardcore bands like Bring Me The Horizon, At The Gates, In Flames, Dimmu Brogir and Architects. 

“We are dying to get this album out and into the hands of old and new I Killed The Prom Queen fans everywhere. To me this record feels as though I Killed The Prom Queen never took a break and is a natural progression of the band. You will hear hints of our side projects and new influences, but make no mistake, this is an I Killed The Prom Queen record through and through. Its fast, melodic, heavy, catchy and we have added a couple of new elements which really bring it up there with the level of music being created these days.”
