AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE Split With AMERICAN RECORDINGS, Ink New Deal

April 10, 2004

AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE have parted ways with American Recordings and have inked a new deal with Nitrus Records (web site). A statement posted on the band's official message board cites "the usual (but prefacing it with 'extreme and debilitating') creative differences" for the split, which is said to have allowed the group a chance to pursue "what they originally saw in American (Recordings)…a belief in the music we write and a very hands-on, no nonsense approach."

AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE are scheduled to begin pre-production on their sophomore release, tentatively titled "Just For the Record", on May 31 in Los Angeles with producer Greg Fidelman (who engineered AHC's previous album, "The War of Art", and whose credits include MARILYN MANSON, SLIPKNOT, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS and BUSH). An October release is expected.

"This is good news for everyone…ourselves, our new label, and especially our fans," the band said in a statement. "We have a renewed sense of purpose and hope, and a batch of new songs that will rip off your face while singing you to sleep. See you on tour, pigs."
