Long-running, progressive death metallers Pestilence, originally established in the Netherlands in 1986, have signed a worldwide record deal with Agonia Records, courtesy of Hadeon Records. The band is currently working on their new album, titled Exitivm.

Founder and vocalist/guitarist Patrick Mameli said about the signing: "Pestilence and Hadeon Records (the band's own imprint) are very excited to be joining forces with Agonia Records in an exclusive, worldwide agreement to explore new pathways in writing history together."

Pestilence's last album, Hadeon, was released to acclaim in 2018, taking everyone by surprise with a nod towards the band's early death metal years, yet still nourishing their experimental expression. The next Pestilence album is always a mystery, in a good way, so stay tuned for more news surrounding their debut release for Agonia Records.
