WAR OF AGES Extends Deal With FACEDOWN RECORDS

April 7, 2011

Pennsylvania's WAR OF AGES has extended its deal with Facedown Records for another album. The band will enter the studio this fall to record the CD for an early 2012 release.

Known as an unstoppable touring machine, WAR OF AGES' summer will be packed with activity. They will soon be announcing U.S. summer tours to go along with their headlining European summer tour, which will include European festivals. They will also appear at Cornerstone and Sonshine destivals during Facedown Night.

Commented Facedown labelhead Jason Dunn: "I am beyond excited to continue our relationship with WAR OF AGES. I view them as a flagship band for Facedown and one of the hardest-working bands in metal today. From our start with them in 2005 on Strike First Records, these guys have proven themselves as individuals and as artists. Every album they write gets better than the previous and it’s an honor to be able to work with them on their upcoming fifth album and to have them headlining night 1 of Facedown Fest and Facedown Night at Cornerstone festival."

Added WAR OF AGES frontman Leroy Hamp: "We are honored and excited to continue our career with Facedown Records! In 2005 Facedown looked to the north western tip of Pennsylvania to find five passionate guys who loved to play music with a purpose. We promised to work hard and do so with honor and integrity, holding onto every value God has given us. With six years of album writing, touring, ups and downs, bumps and busies, Facedown stood behind us, pushing WAR OF AGES every step of the way. As we grow as men, every album gets better and better due to the strong foundation Facedown has built. We are blessed to not only call them our label, but family!"
