URGEHAL Signs With SEASON OF MIST's UNDERGROUND ACTIVISTS

June 9, 2009

Norway's black metal masters URGEHAL (featuring ex-KVIST members and current members of VULTURE LORD, CREST OF DARKNESS, ASMEGIN, FORGOTTEN REALMS, and BLOODSWORN) have inked a deal with Season of Mist's Underground Activists division.

Commented the band: "We're glad to announce the signing with Season of Mist's Underground Activists. After 17 years of existence it's about damn time to spread this Satanic perversity through something greater. The Underground Activists division fits us perfect with the total freedom and underground spirit we always aimed, but with a major distribution and support. We're looking forward for the future co-operation with Season of Mist, and remember comrades, the real black metal is still underground."

URGEHAL's sixth, as-yet-untitled album will be released in early 2010.

URGEHAL will join forces with U.K.'s black/thrash/death metalheads SPEARHEAD and the Los Angeles-based black metal band EYES OF NOCTUM (which is fronted by Weston "Arcane" Coppola Cage, son of actor Nicolas Cage) for a U.S. tour in late/summer early fall. The month-long trek is expected to kick off around September 10 in Boston.

URGEHAL celebrated its 15 year-anniversary in 2007 by releasing the album "The Eternal Eclipse - 15 years of Satanic Black Metal".
