King Parrot - New Label Confirmation


Aussie metallers King Parrot are happy to announce the new label signings. The band joined the family of Housecore Records for North America, Agonia Records for Europe, and EVP Recordings for Australia, which will release their upcoming new album this spring. It was recorded by Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down) in Nodferatu's Lair Studio. More details will follow.

Agonia Records issued the following announcement about inking a new record deal with King Parrot: "We're pleased to announce the signing of the Australian one-of-a-kind thrash metal/grindcore/punk entity, King Parrot. Hailing from Melbourne, the band released debut album Bite Your Head Off in 2012, which gained high praise for its stand-out musical performance layered with black humour and nowadays rare, yet unique creativity.

"King Parrot's upcoming new album was recorded by Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down) in Nodferatu's Lair Studio and is set to land this spring via Agonia Records in Europe, Housecore Records in North America and Rocket/EVP in Australia."

On the new deal, the band commented: "Everyone at King Parrot is excited at the prospect of working with Agonia Records for Europe. We've heard nothing but excellent reports from other acts on their label and believe partnering with them in Europe will see us hit the territory more often. They believe in the band, and with this new album containing our best work to date, we want to spend a lot of time touring in Europe. We are currently undertaking our first Europe tour now, and getting a great response, so when this new album comes out we hope to be here a whole lot more. Bring it on!"
