KINGDOM OF SORROW Sign To Relapse Records
Relapse Records has announced the signing of Jamey Jasta and Kirk Windstein’s KINGDOM OF SORROW.
Jasta (HATEBREED, ICEPICK) and Windstein (DOWN, CROWBAR) came together some three years ago to create KINGDOM OF SORROW, and in that time put together an album’s worth of crushing American metal. Relapse will give the band’s long-awaited debut album its proper worldwide release this coming February.
Upon signing, Jasta comments: “I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am about Kingdom Of Sorrow! There’s been 2 and a half years of questions, rumors and speculation surrounding this and now we can finally move forward! We’ve signed a worldwide deal with Relapse Records!!! It’s an honor. Kirk and I could not be happier, I’ve always been a big fan of the label.”
Jasta continues: “I can’t wait for the world to hear this record. It crushes!! I pushed myself to become a better vocalist and wrote and expressed myself lyrically in a totally different way than I have before. Kirk has never sounded better! His tone is like a 747 filled with tar crashing into a lead mountain. We should press this CD on plutonium because it really is that HEAVY. It was so much fun working on this record. There was no other motive than to have fun and make a unique and different record for the both of us while keeping it heavy, mean and rockin! I think everyone is going to be really surprised!”
Windstein adds: “We’re just so happy to have this come out…finally! We had a great time putting it together and we’re just so proud of it. Its super heavy, man, it just crushes! Everyone I play it for, their jaws drop. And after three years, it feels good to know now everyone can hear it.”
The KINGDOM OF SORROW album was recorded at Planet Z Studios in Massachusetts with producer Zeuss (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL) and will include 11 tracks. KINGDOM OF SORROW preview tracks can be heard now via the band’s official MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/KingdomOfSorrow.












It always amazings me, not really. That with so many great bands out there. These record labels sign shit from other side project bands. Just disgraceful

I really agree with you. This is almost too funny. Why would a long time “player” like Kirk join a Hatebreed prototype band?!
because there better than mike and his wannabe ass and hatebreed prototype is Hardcore incase you dumb fucks forgot
This album will be the hardest and heaviest album ever. Jamey and Kirk know what Metal is and they show it with Kingdom Of Sorrow. Release it already!! Hatebreed is the best Metal band in the universe. Crowbar is the second best! Keep up the hardcore Metal Kirk nad Jasta!!!
