Yeah, we got a record deal.
Our label paid Angel (drummer for Dope) to remix one of our songs and hired the guy who does Manowar's album art to do our artwork. They also dumped a buncha money into remastering our disc.
The CD, "Be Afraid" will be out later this Spring.
We'll keep ya posted.

Thank you, sir!
For the record, our artist didn't do the loincloth cover. Man, do I wish he would, tho!!

Congrats on this, dudes! The new album is most excellent (and sounds great, BTW,) and the Manowar artist connection rules! I just picture Wretched holding up a decapitated head of his slain enemy in one hand, a giant sword or battle axe in the other, and a scantily-clad damsel in distress clutching at his thigh is his best Conan-esque pose. Well, it probably won't look like that, but it would be mighty swell. Will the original Jake Sauer art be incorporated in the packaging?

Sadly, no. I wanna use it somewhere tho. Sticker? T-shirt? I dunno. I really pushed Jake's art, but it was vetoed by Retroactive Pres. Matt Hunt. Matt does a lot of metal acts and has ties to that kinda visual artists, so he hired Jan "Örkki" Yrlund at Darkgrove Design to do it.
If you wanna see what Jan does, go to:

Supposedly, the artwork is to be done today (Mon. Feb 25th).
