Metal Anarchy

Frontiers Label Group imprint BLKIIBLK Records have announced some new signings. Cro-Mags, Forbidden, Nunslaughter, Thrown Into Exile, and Unto Others will now be working with the label.

Mike Gitter, global head of A&R for Frontiers Label Group, said the following:

“I’m proud to announce my joining the Frontiers Label Group team and helming BLKIIBLK. Frontiers is a company of passion. The mission statement is simple: to establish BLKIIBLK as a force on the heavy and extreme music spectrum that spans the gamut from the mainstays and driving forces of the genre to the most modern of metal to the grimiest of the underground. The common denominator is pushing boundaries with records and bands that are nothing short of vital, no matter what stage in their career.

This is just the beginning. Expect surprises at every turn, but the common denominator will remain pretty consistent. Expect everything to go for the throat.”

All five bands also commented:

Cro-Mags‘ Harley Flanagan:

“I’m looking forward to a new chapter for myself and Cro-Mags. I’ve never felt better in my life about my future, my music or my new partnership with BLKIIBLK. I’m ready to kick ass.”

Forbidden:

“When Forbidden was ‘reborn’ in 2023, we knew we were going to write new music. That excited us. We also knew that we were in no rush to be signed or obligated to anything that didn’t feel ideal. Well… that situation has finally revealed itself.

We are elated to announce that Forbidden has joined forces with one of our industry’s biggest champions of heavy music & our old friend, Mike Gitter at BLK II BLK / Frontiers (Megadeth, Biohazard)!

Mike recently left Century Media to take over A&R at BLK II BLK & envisioned Forbidden as his first signing. It’s the perfect home for all parties.

Forbidden & Mike Gitter all have histories & wealth of experiences to pull from. We’re older, wiser & learned from our collective pasts. This situation couldn’t be any more perfect. We’re presently recording our first album in 16 years with enthusiasm & fire! Can’t wait to share it with everyone.”

Nunslaughter‘s Don Of The Dead:

“We’re ready to start the next chapter of our blasphemy as a band. We’ve garnered our Satanic legions over the years and a countless number of releases. With the current lineup, we’ve taken Nunslaughter to some seriously insane places I never expected when I started this band as a teenager. We’re now taking things to a new level with our new congregation at BLKIIBLK while never turning our back on the underground.”

Thrown Into Exile:

“We couldn’t be more happy to be working with Mike Gitter and BLKIIBLK Records, his A&R credits in metal are legendary and we look forward to what we will do together.”

Unto Others:

“As we continue to work on our 4th full-length album as a band, we are happy to follow our good friend and talented A&R man, Mike Gitter to his new home at BLKIIBLK/Frontiers. May the coming year and upcoming album be a big one for all of us!”
