Australian metallers Terminal Sleep have signed a record deal with Nuclear Blast Records. Speaking on the signing, the band said:
“It is a privilege to be welcomed into the family amongst so many legendary bands we grew up listening to, and fresh new bands we have on repeat. We could not be more excited to bring in the new era of Terminal Sleep with Tommy [Jones of Nuclear Blast] and the whole team at Nuclear Blast!”
The aforementioned Jones, who is label manager and A&R for the American arm of Nuclear Blast, offered:
“Last year a pal of mine hit me with a link and said ‘check this out’. It was to a few unreleased songs by Terminal Sleep from Melbourne, Australia. One listen and a bit of research and I was all the way in! Last January, I saw the TS crew from down under in Hamburg Germany …and holy hopping kangaroos, I was completely blown away! Bec was in full on beastmode and I thought she was going to eliminate the entire room. A must see. I am ecstatic to usher in Terminal Sleep to the worldwide Nuclear Blast family! LFG, don’t sleep!”
The deal arrives with the premiere of their new track, “They Circle Below”. Check out the video below and purchase/stream the track here. The clip was directed by Jack Fontes and edited by Tom Drizners. Speaking of the single, vocalist Bec Thorwesten said:
“The song explores the journey of navigating one’s self-doubt and the drowning pressure of self-set expectations; overcoming mental turmoil and the only way out being through.”
