Revered purveyors of their own critically celebrated style of doom-infused progressive rock/metal, Pallbearer, have expanded their relationship with leading metal label, Nuclear Blast Records, announcing that they've signed a worldwide deal and that Nuclear Blast will be the worldwide home for the band's highly anticipated fourth full-length album.

The band commented: "We are very honored to announce that we have signed a worldwide record deal with Nuclear Blast. We had the great privilege of working with them on the European distribution of our previous album, and it was quite clear that this was the next logical step for us. We greatly look forward to continuing our work with Monte Conner and his legendary team at the label, as well as being included amongst a truly unparalleled group of some of heavy music's greatest artists of the modern era."

In timing with the signing announcement, Pallbearer have released a new single, "Atlantis", as part of Sub Pop Records' recently revived 'Sub Pop Singles Club'. The single is available for streaming here.

The band has also announced a handful of summer dates, including shows with Baroness and two special homestate shows where they will be performing Sorrow And Extinction in its entirety.
