Ancient Ascendant, Colonel Blast & Steel Tormentor sign with Union Back.

ANCIENT ASCENDANT
Ancient Ascendant represent the pinnacle of technical progressive Death Metal. Already working on a full-length album, they shall be releasing their EP, The Heathen Throne worldwide shortly, which will be welcomed by fans of Opeth and the like as a release of the very highest quality.

COLONEL BLAST
Debut album “For the Greater Good” is a crushing slab of Metal, heavier than a herd of elephants strapped to a Boeing 747. Citing the three Cs of Converge, Carcass and Cryptopsy as their inspiration, Colonel Blast stamp all over their competition with an intensity and individuality that demands attention.

STEEL TORMENTOR
For those who prefer their Metal a little more in the 'traditional' vein, they also have Irish stalwarts, Steel Tormentor. Having supported the like of Cauldron and Saxon, these boys have been working hard on their new album “Return Of A King” which will see the light of day in 2010, and promises to raise a few eyebrows, marking as it does an incredible step forward from their debut “Unleashed”.
