Being in a funeral doom metal band does not mean you can't have a sense of humor. Indeed, that's one of the messages the German horde Ahab showed through a comical set of photos via their Facebook page, and as the band has put it: "As music business is a dirty business find here an 'educational' comic how to better NOT sign a record deal." Not only that but they have also officially announced their contract renewal with Napalm Records.

Not much is known about their new album yet, but a new deal usually means a new album is coming. Recently, Ahab confirmed via Twitter that they are recording the first demos for the next album.

Max Riedler (The Captain of Napalm): "Thank you Ahab! I'm happy to be roadie for such an innovative band. I'm looking forward to navigate the seven seas with you on our Napalm cutter!"

Sebastian Münch (Steersman and A&R Manager): "We feel absolutely happy, proud and extremely doomed to announce, Ahab have renewed their partnership with Napalm Records! Ahab is arguably one of the most unique and original bands within the Napalm band roster! Everytime I listen to Ahab I feel I am getting sucked into the depth of an endless stormy ocean.... and I have to admit I quite enjoy that feeling!"
