"It's always been and always will be our biggest goal to keep our roster as diverse and exciting as possible. SURROUNDED BY MONSTERS is a band that will contribute these two elements and we are extremely amazed to be working with them from now on! Keep your eyes peeled, your ears open and LET CHAOS REIGN!"

Added SURROUNDED BY MONSTERS guitarist Lee Dudley: "We're very excited to work with a label that's willing to support a band that is doing what they love no matter how weird or different the music is. We're ready to take over the world. WYLD STALLYNS!!!"

Stated keyboardist Traci Pason: "We are all beyond stoked and extremely grateful to get to work with such an amazing label. I've never drank so much champagne in my life."

Commented Bradley: "I couldn't be more excited about working on this album for my longtime friends in SURROUNDED BY MONSTERS.
