Boston Hardcore act, Death Before Dishonor has re-signed to Bridge Nine Records and is working on completing their next full length. Vocalist Bryan Harris explained:

We really feel at home at Bridge Nine. The label has supported us since day one and when it was time to go label hunting, we heard some people out, but it was a no-brainer for us to stay with B9. They’ve seen us grow, they’ve grown with us, and in the last few years, they’ve grown to become that ‘next level’ label a band like ours would want to be on at this point in our career.”

The band entered The Outpost with producer Jim Siegel (Dropkick Murphy’s, American Nightmare, Unseen, Blood For Blood) three weeks ago to being recording their yet-to-be-titled upcoming full length, which is expected to hit stores in late July from Bridge Nine.

Also, although he has been playing with us for about 5 months now, I guess we will take this time to officially announce the addition of our good friend (the American War) Matt Schuerman as our new guitarist/vocalist.

We have been working hard with writing new songs and we are very excited to share them. We will be going in to record an 11 song, soon to be named full length during the first couple weeks in May with our friends Andy Cook and Eric Cronnstein (sp?). Updates soon! Also, check out Matt’s band,American War, on tour right now!

They released Sam [7 inch] in 2008 and So Long, Soggy Dog in 2007.
