Tim "Sorrow" Yatras (ex-Woods Of Desolation, Austere and Grey Waters among others) will have a busy year ahead of him. Prophecy Productions has welcomed Germ from Australia to its artist roster. Germ signed a long-term contract with Prophecy, also encompassing re-issues of the entire Germ back catalogue. Tim plans to spend 2014 composing and recording material for what will become the third full length Germ album, and the first album to surface from the partnership with Prophecy Productions.

While the idea for Germ was created over ten years ago, it wasn't until 2012 that the first releases surfaced, in the form of debut full length album Wish, and follow-up EP Loss. Germ returned in 2013 with a new full length album, Grief.

Tim Yatras: "I'm extremely excited about the new partnership between Germ and Prophecy Productions. I grew up listening to many of Prophecy's releases, from the 1990's all the way up to the present day, and to now be working with a label whose artists have been a huge part of shaping who I am as a musician today is an honor I can't even begin to describe!"
