Frontiers Records has announced the signing of Sweden's
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET.
The band was formed by drummer, songwriter and producer
Daniel Flores, who — after a few false starts of what was to become
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET — just by coincidence came across the magnificent singer
Angelica Rylin, well endowed with the right look, voice and talents, being exactly what
Daniel was searching for. The rest of
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET's lineup followed — guitarist
Daniel Palmqvist, bass player
Johan Niemann and keyboardist
Andreas Lindahl all being mentally, creatively and spiritually the right combination to complete the perfect match.
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET's sound is rich in influence and yet distinctly unique. The lush melodic cinematic landscapes reflect the diversity of the five members own musical experiences. From
Angelica's soaring vocal melodies and sweeping choruses to the explosive layers of guitars from
Palmqvist and the thrilling orchestratic keyboard arrangements painted by
Andreas Lindahl backed by the bombastic and dynamic rhythms of
Niemann and
Flores. The resulting collaborations are a work both haunting and uplifting — fuelled by the curiosity of seeing where their burning ambitions will take them.
"All of us in
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET are highly excited to be collaborating and releasing our debut album with such an experienced and talented label as
Frontiers," says
Daniel Flores.
"We feel extremely privileged to be band mates with such great bands as
JOURNEY,
TOTO and
SURVIVOR, to mention just a few," adds
Angelica. "We are looking forward to launch and to get our music heard world wide. A special thank you goes out to all our fans on
MySpace who have been so dedicated and devoted since the start in 2007."
THE MURDER OF MY SWEET's single for the track
"Bleed Me Dry" will be released exclusively in the band's home country on November 13. The band will also present the release with a launch gig in their hometown on the same day at the Roq Club.
