Sumerian Records drops Sea of Treachery

Sumerian Records and San Diego, California metal band Sea Of Treachery recently parted ways. Essentially, the label lost confidence in the band following a host of line-up changes. For their part, the group no longer felt that Sumerian was the appropriate label home. Regardless, Sea Of Treachery has entered Lambesis Studios in San Marcos, CA with engineer Joseph McQueen and producer Daniel Castleman (As I Lay Dying) to begin work on their sophomore release, "Wonderland." Additionally, the group has announced the addition of clean vocalist/bassist Chris Paterson (ex-Jamie's Elsewhere) to their roster.

So they get dropped and say "oh Sumerian wasn't right for us anymore anyways". Somebody is butthurt.

THANK GOD! A "clean vocalist"...I was worried it would be the same thing over and over again.

MOVE132 9/24/2009 5:14:11 PM

Good they were going to drop from Sumerian anyways. Sumerian Records treats them like shit they deserve better!

Arson_Our_Savior 9/24/2009 5:14:15 PM

wow... should have settled there differences in beginning with the original line up, then write better music with less un-inspired breakdowns.

Glad Sumerian dropped them. The were the weakest link, by far! Saw em with The Funeral Pyre and Antagonist, who killed them on stage. This band just doesn't belong anywhere, really.

Facethrasher0 9/24/2009 8:34:25 PM

Music of Treachery *two thumbs down*.

Facethrasher0 9/24/2009 8:36:41 PM

It wish they would have been actually killed on stage.

xDIx 9/24/2009 10:50:44 PM

horrible band singer had to move to CA to find new members bc no one wanted to be in this band

HBDad 9/24/2009 10:54:23 PM

Clean singer = the wuss that usually drags a band down. Only a small handful of bands have clean vocals that don't suck.

Chaosweaver 9/24/2009 11:29:42 PM

Toured with them last summer, within 6 months they had no members that we toured with left in the the band. Total lineup switcheroo.

NCE 9/25/2009 12:31:17 AM

"Yeah Sumerian droped us cuz we had too many line-up changes. By the way! Did we mention we got a new singer?" hahahahaha

Gforce 9/25/2009 12:37:53 AM

Knowing the current SOT line-up, the backing that they have, their talents, and the lead guitarist's song writing abilities, your speculation is way off base. (continued below)

Gforce 9/25/2009 12:38:17 AM

Save whatever dignity you have left - Save your opinions for when you hear their new album and then you can attest to the fact the you are just a bunch of miserable bitches because you just don't have it yourself! ENJOY!

TrentAHR 9/25/2009 12:41:16 AM

BEST NEWS I HAVE HEARD ALL DAY! NOW IF ONLY THEY WOULD BREAK UP!
