With 20 years of touring the world, massive record sales, and defining a musical genre under their collective belts, Riverside California’s, Suicide Silence have returned to where it all began. Century Media Records, the label that released their debut full length The Cleansing in 2007, 2009’s No Time To Bleed and 2011’s The Black Crown.

Guitarist Chris Garza had this to say:

“I can’t believe how far we’ve all come since the band began 20 years ago. Today we’re back where it all started — writing music together in the same room where the first three albums were created. We’re incredibly excited to be working with Century Media Records once again as we enter the next chapter of our career.”

Mike Gitter, Century Media vice president of A&R, said this:

“Suicide Silence has long been an important band in heavy music, not only being the band that really put ‘deathcore’ on the map but a band that has continued to redefine themselves and beat the odds at every turn. The new music I’ve heard from them has all the intensity and earmarks of their past while continuing to push into the proverbial red.”

Philipp Schulte, Century Media vice president and global head stated:

“It feels great to welcome Suicide Silence, undeniably the most influential deathcore band ever, back to Century Media Records. Working with them again feels like reuniting what was never meant to be divided. We’re happy being the band’s supporting label home again. No pity for the cowards!”

The band has just announced a co-headlining run with Carnifex on the “Chaos & Carnage” tour with Lorna Shore, Upon a Burning Body, Angelmaker and Distant. The tour commences May 15 and until June 4.
