Tragic Hero signs Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

Official press release: Tragic Hero Records is pleased to announce the signing of New Milford, CT's Brighter Than A Thousand Suns. The band's label debut, Survival Machines, will be recorded in Baltimore, MD with Paul Leavitt (All Time Low, Senses Fail, Circa Survive) and will be released on September 20, 2011. Brighter Than a Thousand Suns have been quick to build a name for themselves with energetic verses, epic choruses and bone-crushing breakdowns which quickly reached out to fans across the Northeast. Since forming in 2007, the band has appeared on the Vans Warped Tour and was featured in AP Magazine before they even released their debut EP "The Demon Haunted World", produced by Paul Leavitt. During that time, the band also kept busy with regional touring, recording and appearances on the PacSun Tour with Saosin. With Angelika Hirtler's fire-spitting screams and soaring melodies, Alex Anderson's haunting voice, Matt Richter and Randy Roswell's intricate rhythms, genre-bending guitar riffs and ghostly ambient textures, they bring something fresh and honest to the table with a strong work ethic to match.

It's quite obvious that they put as much thought into their songwriting as they did thinking up that god awful band name. It's obvious and i didn't even listen to it. I just know.
