Transcend Records today announced the signing of one of Britain’s most promising young metal acts – Rise To Remain.
Despite only forming in 2008 the band has made a massive impact on the UK festival scene and live circuit, kicking off with an appearance at Download festival in the same year swiftly followed by a vicious set on the Bloodstock main stage.
On the strength of these performances the band were offered opening slots on both the Trivium and Haunted tours as well as the Five Finger Death Punch tour in February.
The guys have also shared stages with the likes of Soulfly, Exit Ten, Anterioir and Sylosis and blitzed fans with a string of their own headline dates throughout the UK.
Rise To Remain came of age at the inaugural Sonisphere festival earlier this summer where they managed raise their own bar by laying waste to the Bohemia stage with a double ‘wall of death’ performance!
Frontman Austin Dickinson said: “As a new band we want to do things our own way – not follow the crowd. And we want to be our own entity instead of trading quality for quantity, so to speak.
“For the sake of our longevity, it’s crucial that we get the right people, our own people, behind us. Transcend Records, boasting a stellar roster already, absolutely came through for us and are the ideal label for where we are currently at. We’re incredibly happy that Rob and the rest of the Transcend team are working with us, and we can’t wait to unleash hell with them!”
With their highly anticipated debut mini-album already in production, Rise To Remain are perfectly positioned at the forefront of the UK’s breaking metal scene. Catch them while you can!
