Six Inch Nails Records signs Polish Modern Metal band – Chain Reaction for the Asian release of their 2nd full-length album titled: Cutthroat Melodies.
Chain Reaction was formed in the end of 2002 as a band of friends playing together for fun. Two years later, at the moment when the band’s style was maturing, it was joined by Barton who took over the lead singer’s position. In 2006 CR’s new tracks were recorded as the ‘id’ Promo and met with great reception.
Thanks to ‘id’ Chain Reaction gained huge positive feedback in Poland and played more than fifty gigs around the country but, due to the length of the album, remained unsigned.
The band kept on working hard and in the end of 2007 recorded their first LP album entilted ‘Vicious Circle‘. They spent the next year playing loads of gigs and, finally, signed their first record deal with a new Italian label, Kolony Records. ‘Vicious Circle’ was out in stores around Europe in March, 2009 and gained great reviews, both in press and on the internet. This only strengthened the band’s belief that what they have created was good and gave them a good vibe, needed at that time, as they were finishing the writing of their second album.
‘Cutthroat Melodies‘, Chain Reaction’s second LP was recorded in the last months of 2009 and is to be released in May 2010, once again by Kolony Records. Even before its release ‘Cutthroat Melodies’ proves to be the band’s biggest achievement as ‘Twinge’, the first track from the album already won the charts for Metal channel on Ourstage.com and is included on ‘Kill City Vol.22’ compilation released by 272Records in Hollywood.
Chain Reaction was signed by Six Inch Nails Records in November 2010 for the Asian release of ‘Cutthroat Melodies’ scheduled for December 2010.
We are very happy and proud that another label noticed the potential in us, and that we will be able to get our music to more people. We really hope they like it! – Chain Reaction
