Relapse Records signs Maruta

Relapse Records has officially signed Floridian grindcore outfit Maruta. Formed in 2006, the band released two albums with Willowtop Records before breaking up in 2011. Maruta reformed in early-2013 and will release their Scott Hull-produced Relapse Records debut in 2014. Vocalist Mitchell Luna commented on the signing: "Relapse is a label with a very diverse roster, and one that has put out several records in the past that we consider highly influential. A partnership with them just felt like the next logical choice, and we feel like we fit right in."
