Century Media Records is proud to announce that it has signed Swedish modern metal band ORBIT CULTURE. The quartet comes from the small Swedish town of Eksjö, which lies between the famous metal cities of Gothenburg and Stockholm.
ORBIT CULTURE combine riffs that are equal parts thrash, death metal and industrial with captivating hooks and a layered atmosphere that invites comparisons to Gojira, Metallica and Static-X, all while creating something entirely their own.
ORBIT CULTURE’s 2023 album “Descent” and subsequent EP “The Forgotten” topped many year-end lists, including Metal Hammer, which called the album “an impressive interweaving of modern metal’s most effective and exciting strands.” Extensive worldwide tours and numerous festival appearances paved the way for something big.
ORBIT CULTURE sagen:
“Century Media is home to some of today’s biggest metal bands out there and we couldn’t be any happier to be part of their roster. We look forward to bringing you new music in the future and working closely together with Century Media’s world class team!”
“Watching ORBIT CULTURE’s rise to becoming one of the greatest new metal bands in the world and now working with them is inspiring,” explains Philipp Schulte, Century Media Vice President and Global Head. “I’ve personally been a fan since the beginning. They are part of both metal and Century Media’s future in a very exciting way.”
Before ORBIT CULTURE begins work on their next LP and Century Media debut, they will tour North America with legendary metal acts Machine Head and Fear Factory as well as newcomers Gates to Hell on the Slaughter The Martour tour. The US and Canada tour continues the Swedish band’s extensive work in the territory, which has already included tours with In Flames and Avatar, and ORBIT CULTURE garnered an enthusiastic following and a high placement on Sirius’ liquid metal “Devil’s Dozen” annual charts XM brought. At the time of this announcement, the band is at #1 on Sirius CM’s Liquid Metal charts. After the US tour, ORBIT CULTURE will embark on an extensive European tour appropriately titled “Descending Into Madness”.
Mike Gitter, Century Media Vice President of A&R, North America:
“We are beyond excited to be working with ORBIT CULTURE and their team at 5B (Management),” adds. “They’ve carved an indelible mark on the worldwide metal scene through vision, determination, and hard work. They’re not merely a band leading the charge for extreme music right now – they’re a band that will lead that charge for many years to come.”
