Back in November of last year, we came across quite an intriguing local metalcore band. Their music was hardcore yet melodic and had just enough kick ass to keep the metal fans happy and still not scare away those who oppose the "screamo" movement. Just listening to their music made you realize that they just had "it," whatever the proverbial "it" is. We were lucky enough to interview the Janesville, WI based band to share their story and spread their infectious music. At the time of the interview, we kept thinking that there are a very select few bands around the area that seem to be heading in the right direction to achieve every local bands goal, getting signed. This morning Serianna proudly announced that they had signed with Bullet Tooth Records.
"We are excited about working with Josh and Bullet Tooth records because of the history that Josh has had with helping bands be successful. Since Josh used to own Trustkill records, his track record for establishing bands cannot go unnoticed. We're excited for Bullet Tooth to help us with our next step in our music career and get our music out to as many people as possible! Its funny for us to think that four years ago we were playing Bullet For My Valentine covers, only to be signed by the same guy responsible for discovering them," guitarist James Milbrandt said.
After years of playing music and sharing a passion for metal, the boys of Serianna finally were able to achieve a goal that many bands only dream of. But they admit that the hard work has just begun. Serianna has a new album in the works that will be released under Bullet Tooth titled "Inheritors."
"It feels like a relief to finally get to that point. We know now that it's just the beginning of the hard work to come. It will be nice to have our music reach all new areas of fans with the support of the label. I'm excited to see what this summer/year brings us. I am really excited to get this cd out! I would release it now if I could. I would say early part of summer we'll be shooting for, so next couple months. We've been sitting on these songs and cd for awhile now and its time for everyone to hear it!" bassist Lee Milbrandt said.
CONGRATULATIONS to Serianna from HRR and the best of luck in the upcoming future!
