News : Dead City Ruins sign to AFM Records
Melbourne’s Dead City Ruins have announced a new signing to Germany record label, AFM Records. The label is home to a variety of heavy metal and hard rock artists, including; Orden Ogan, Gus G, Ross The Boss, plus Australia’s Truth Corroded and Vanishing Point. The label is based in Hamburg, Germany and has been active since 1993, signing the likes of Doro, Masterplan, Iron Savior, Annilhator and Udo Dirkschneider among others. The news of the signing was made public via the band’s official Facebook page.
Frontman, Jake Wiffen comments:
It has been a wild ride for DCR (Dead City Ruins). To be honest there has, like all bands, been so many highlights and so many pitfalls that have at times completely consumed me and I’m sure all members of this band.
Finally, after so much hard work and risk, so much sacrifice and dedication, we can announce that we have signed to AFM Records out of Hamburg Germany.
With this final piece to our puzzle, I feel we have locked down what all bands require to be successful. Besides the hundreds of other things needed within a band to facilitate the best chance of success, number one being the ability to not kill one another, these three things are most important: Manager, Label and Booking.
I’m proud as hell to be a part of the AFM family and I look forward to the future of Dead City Ruins and our upcoming full-length album.
Thanks to our fans, family, mates and everyone who ever did anything to help us along the way.
In 2014, Dead City Ruins released their debut self-titled album with overwhelmingly positive reviews from fans and media. If you have yet to experience this album, we strongly recommend you click here and start listening.
