CENTAURUS-A Signs To LISTENABLE RECORDS

December 3, 2008

German technical death metal maestros CENTAURUS-A have inked a deal with Listenable Records. The band's debut album, "Side Effects Expected", will be released in March 2009. The CD is described as "a collection of rapid and savagely melodic death metal" which was recorded with producer Jacob Hansen (RAUNCHY, INVOCATOR) at Hansen studio in Ribe, Denmark.

CENTAURUS-A got its name from a galaxy. The band says, "It is one of the most interesting and peculiar galaxies in the sky, and is a strong source of radio radiation (therefore the designation Centaurus A); it is actually the nearest radio galaxy. Centaurus A galaxy has swallowed another galaxy similar to ours about 2 billion years ago."

The band was formed in 2000 and released three demos prior to signing with Listenable: "Last Step Line" (2000),"Nimbus" (2001) and "Narcotic" (2003).

CENTAURUS-A is:

Johannes Henke (vocals)
Hernan Martinez (guitar)
Maik Matanovic (guitar)
Michael Ahlgrimm (bass)
Patrick Schroeder (drums)

CENTAURUS-A's "Drop Off" video can be viewed below.
