KillingTheMessenger-2016

EMP Label Group and EMP Underground are proud to welcome San Diego’s KILLING THE MESSENGER to the roster! The band’s upcoming full-length album “Fuel To The Fire” will be released on July 22, and the band will be joining Next To None and Arise in Chaos on the EMP Underground tour this Summer.

KILLING THE MESSENGER is for fans of: August Burns Red, For Today, Killswitch Engage, Trivium, and Parkway Drive.

In March, Southern California metal-core staples KILLING THE MESSENGER released their first single in over a year “Fuel To The Fire” on all major digital platforms. This debut single served as the first glimpse of their upcoming full-length album of the same name, the follow up to their wide successful self-released “What Matter Most”, which had brought the band to the forefront of the San Diego metal scene, earning their spot as a top draw since it’s release in 2014.

The band enters their second album cycle with confidence, looking to break out into the scene on a national level. “We wanted to find a balance between continuity and progression. We never wanted to change our sound but achieving that and also creating something new isn’t an easy task! We feel we hit the nail on the head with this album”, says band frontman and founder Ahren Gray. Their confidence is validated by an ever-growing team backing them up, who quickly caught the eye of David Ellefson‘s newly formed EMP Underground imprint. Through the work of this newly assembled team, and the raw talent and passion of the band, KILLING THE MESSENGER has demanded the attention of both fans and strategic partners, having recently announced endorsement relationships with Schecter Guitars and Sinister Picks. All of this has laid the groundwork for an incredibly ambitious album cycle. As guitarist Jon Arbar says, “We couldn’t have dreamt of what this album has become. So many hours have gone into writing, rewriting and collaborating on these songs and I’m truly proud of what we’ve produced. The heavy, the soft, the deep and complex, we tried to encapsulate it all to give the listener a truly memorable product.”

Comments KILLING THE MESSENGER:
We are so extremely excited to announce our signing with EMP Label Group & EMP Underground, owned and run by the prestigious David Ellefson of Megadeth! It’s taken us some time to find the right match but we truly believe this partnership is going to help us in ways that are extremely unimaginable. That being said, we’re excited to release the second single off of our new record titled ‘Savior’. Check it out HERE.

Preorders are now officially available at this location.
