Obey The Brave sign to Epitaph
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 18 June 2012
Obey The Brave, the newish Canadian metalcore band led by former Despised Icon frontman Alex Erian, have signed to Epitaph Records ahead of the August release of their debut album ‘Young Blood’.
Confirming the deal, Erian told CMU: “I remember listening to my Pennywise and Rancid cassettes back in high school and daydreaming endlessly about being in a band and touring the world. If someone would have told me back then that I’d sign one day with the label that started it all, I would have never believed it. It feels unreal but my boys in OTB and I are definitely up to the challenge. We’re extremely honored to now be part of the Epitaph family and are looking forward to many years of pure fucking destruction together!”
To celebrate the signing, the band recently posted the video to ‘Young Blood’ track ‘Get Real’ on the good old YouTuber-net, which you can watch here:
