THE PSYKE PROJECT Signs With LIFEFORCE RECORDS
February 21, 2008Lifeforce Records has announced the signing of the Danish act THE PSYKE PROJECT. The band's Lifeforce debut, "Apnea", which will be released June 30 within Europe and July 8 in North America, was produced by Tue Madsen (HIMSA, RAUNCHY, MNEMIC, ABORTED, AUGUST BURNS RED) and "demonstrates an overwhelming connection to extreme music and is the epitome of the ever expanding and evolving musical outlook for Lifeforce Records," according to a press release. "THE PSYKE PROJECT has demonstrated a unique approach to metal and hardcore that expands our knowledge of the genre and catapults it into future."
"Apnea" is nominated in the "Hard Rock" category at the annual Danish Music Awards (the Danish Grammy Awards equivalent). The 40th Danish Music Awards show will be held Saturday, February 23 in at Tivoli in Copenhagen, Denmark and will be broadcast live on MySpace.
Commented Rasmus Sejersen of THE PSYKE PROJECT: "We are very pleased to announce that we have signed a world wide record deal with the well-respected and ground-breaking metal label Lifeforce (Germany/US). We've been listening to Lifeforce artists since we were kids so we are happy to be a part of the family."
Formed in 2001 in Copenhagen, Denmark, THE PSYKE PROJECT's main motivation for playing this type of music emerges from a profound love for the dark and brutal sound of hardcore and the sincerity and honesty in the statements made by most bands from this scene. THE PSYKE PROJECT seeks to create an intense chaotic sound mixed with heavy riffs and beautiful epic passages.
