ATTACKER Record Label and Release Date Announcement.

It's Official! After much deliberation, the US Metal Band have Re-Signed with Sentinel Steel Records! The New Jersey based label is one of, if not, THE most respected Heavy Metal Record Labels in the industry today. SENTINEL STEEL is the very label that helped to relaunch the noteriety and popularity of the Lords of Thunder back in 1999 with the re-issues of the classic “Battle and Helms Deep” and the “Second Coming” albums!

The bands newest album “THE UNKNOWN” will see its official world-wide release on TUESDAY APRIL 11th on CD and CLASSIC VINYL!

Now here's an exclusive for ATTACKER fans! Regarding the release, ATTACKER and SENTINEL STEEL wish to announce that copies of their newest album will be on sale at the very site where the band solidified their comback and that will be at the KEEP IT TRUE FESTIVAL at the Tauberfrankenhalle in Laude-Konigshofen, Germany on Saturday April 8th before its world-wide release on the 11th!!

We now present to you a statement from SENTINEL STEEL owner and founder, Denis Gulby:

“The Sentinel Steel label is very pleased to renew our relationship with ATTACKER. The new ATTACKER album, “The Unknown”, is a massive step forward for the band, from songwriting, performances and production, and Sentinel Steel is proud to be associated with this traditional power metal monster.

With both the label and the band being based in Northern New Jersey, and the friendship we have built up over the years, it only made sense for Sentinel Steel and ATTACKER to once again join forces and continue where we left off with the “Battle At Helm's Deep” and “Second Coming” CD reissues.

Please watch for the European release of ATTACKER's “The Unknown” on April 8th, 2006 in Europe (at the Keep It True Festival) and April 11th, 2006 for the rest of the world”.

Just a reminder, ATTACKER will be on tour, in Europe, starting on Saturday September 16th where they will headline the SWORDBROTHERS FESTIVAL in Andernach, Germany. Stops will also include Italy, Greece and Belgium! The European trek will be sponsored by EAT METAL RECORDS.

Stay tuned and remember, if you can't wait for your copy of “THE UNKNOWN” get yours before the world does at KEEP IT TRUE on Saturday April the 8th!!
