AFTER ALL news Feb 2005 Articles / Bands' News Date: Feb 06, 2005 - 10:44 PM AFTER ALL SIGN RECORD DEAL WITH DOCKYARD 1 OK, here's the big news... After All signed a multi-album deal with German label Dockyard 1, the new company of Dirk Putzke, Christine Stephan (both ex-Sanctuary/Noise Records) and Piet Sielck (Iron Savior). The CD-version of the new After All album "The Vermin Breed" will be out on March 21st. As reported earlier, "The Vermin Breed" was recorded and mixed by veteran producer Harris Johns (Voivod, Helloween, Kreator), at the Spiderhouse Studio in Berlin, Germany. "The Vermin Breed" CD contains 9 new tracks and some bonus material. Several songs were already presented live during After All's European campaigns with Anthrax and Overkill. The new record clearly displays the growth of the band, both live and in the studio. The musical direction After All introduced on "Mercury Rising" has now been finetuned. That makes "The Vermin Breed" one sheer thrash attack. Be prepared... "THE VERMIN BREED" TO BE RELEASED ON LIMITED VINYL And another record deal... German label Killer Metal Records will release "The Vermin Breed" as a limited edition of 500 LPs on blue vinyl. The vinyl release will have exclusive artwork. Street date is March 21st as well. AFTER ALL ON TOUR WITH AGENT STEEL Following the release of "The Vermin Breed" on March 21st, After All will embark on a European tour as special guests of US masters of metal Agent Steel. The tour takes the bands to Holland, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Italy and Austria, with stops on the Raise Your Fist and Keep It True festivals.
