Launched in Stockholm as a solo project by guitarist/vocalist Olof “Enforcer” Wikstrand, Sweden’s high energy heavy/speed metal band ENFORCER have signed a worldwide deal with Nuclear Blast Records.
Death By Fire, ENFORCER’s third full-length album and Nuclear Blast debut, is slated for release in early 2013.
“With Nuclear Blast on board, we’re gonna make sure to spread the new music to every corner of this planet,” states Wikstrand. “You can expect nothing but a total, self-defining ENFORCER record.”
Having come a long way since the two-song 2005 Evil Attacker demo that launched the band into the metal scene, ENFORCER released their first full-length album, Into The Night, in 2008. They first toured North America in 2009 with Cauldron and in 2010, delivered their sophomore effort, Diamonds. No strangers to the bigger stages, they’ve played their loud, NWOBHM-infused metal to audiences at Metalcamp, Bloodstock, Hole In The Sky, Dynamo, Keep It True, Rockstad: Falun, and Hells Pleasure festivals.
This February, ENFORCER will open for NWOBHM greats ANGEL WITCH and Swedish metallers GRAND MAGUS on the “Hunting Across Europe” tour.
