May 20, 2005F5, the new Phoenix-based band featuring former MEGADETH bassist David Ellefson, ex-SICK SPEED vocalist Dale Steele, drummer David Small, and guitarists Steve Conley and John Davis, have inked a European deal with Holland's Mascot Records. The band's debut album, tentatively due in August, will be the first major release under license from Ellefson Music Production.

Songtitles set appear on the CD include "Fall to Me", "Bleeding", "What I Am" (EDIE BRICKELL AND THE NEW BOHEMIANS cover),"Hold Me Down" and "Dissidence".
