Official press release:
Metal Blade Records is happy to announce the signing of Swedish death metallers Evocation to its ranks.
Evocation have released four full length-albums since their debut Tales From The Tomb in 2007 and the band is up and ready to release a new studio album in the first quarter of 2017.
Comments Marko Palmén of Evocation: "We are extremely proud to announce the signing of a new world wide recording agreement with Metal Blade Records. Evocation will from this day on be part of a legendary roster consisting of bands such as Behemoth, Bolt Thrower, Cannibal Corpse, Mercyful Fate etc. For us it was a natural choice to join Metal Blade Records since we already since several years had a successful co-operation with them for the licensing of Evocation's first three albums in the US and Canada. Metal Blade is also a label that is widely known for its commitment within the Death Metal scene which for us means a lot. On behalf of Evocation I can only say that we are very pleased to have found a new home for the band. Huge thanx to Brian Slagel, our old friend Andreas Reissnauer and all the people at Metal Blade for making us a part of the Metal Blade family!"
