Hamburg-based Sludge and Stoner Metal unit HIGH FIGHTER have signed a worldwide deal with Italian label ARGONAUTA RECORDS. Currently putting together the final songwriting touches, the band's hotly anticipated second album will be released in the Spring of 2019!
Says Argonauta's CEO Gero Lucisano:
"Today I'm beyond stoked to welcome HIGH FIGHTER in the Argonauta family. I remember how their album "Scars & Crosses" has been on heavy rotation here in our head-quarters for many months, and still is an "evergreen" listening these days. Moreover, thanks to the fact they are an hard working band always on tour, I got the chance to see them on stage, where I saw a captivating band with an uncontrollable energy, top professional attitude and awareness of their own means. Speaking with the band, I immediately got we are both moved by the same type of enthusiasm and it'd be such a lack of synergy to not join forces for their new album, which I can already grant it will be totally massive!"
After
their ciritically acclaimed debut EP 'The
Goat Ritual',
self-released in the end of 2014, followed by numerous shows all over
Europe including festival appearances at Wacken Open Air, Summer
Breeze, Desertfest Berlin & Antwerp, Sonic Blast, Stoned From The
Underground, Up In Smoke and many more, as well as numerous gigs on
tour with bands alike Ahab, Conan, Crowbar, Mantar, Corrosion of
Conformity, Elder, Downfall of Gaia, Mammoth Storm, Brant Bjork or
Earth Ship to name just a few, HIGH FIGHTER
released
their first full-length 'Scars
& Crosses'
in June 2016 with Finland's cult label Svart
Records.
"We have met Gero a few years ago at a show in Italy, and we immediatly felt his passion and love for the underground heavy music scene.“ HIGH FIGHTER vocalist Mona Miluski comments. „Over the past few months, I also got the chance to work closely with Gero due to my daytime job in the music industry, and I have probably not met many people like him before in this very tough business.

His
passionated but also very professional hard work for versatile, heavy
bands not only impressed me but the entire band, when Gero made us an
offer we could not refuse. We have and always will be very grateful
for what Svart Records did for us and our first album, but musically
we feel a step to sunny Italy with a label that represents the
direction we currently go with our new album has been a great choice
and move. We can't wait to start recording in Berlin at the Hidden
Planet Studio with our dear friend Jan Oberg (Earth Ship) in the
beginning of 2019, and unleash our second full-length baby with
Argonauta Records next Spring!“
