Century Media re-signs Dark Tranquillity

Melodic death metal outfit Dark Tranquillity have signed a new worldwide record deal with Century Media Records. Here's what the band says about the deal: "We are exceptionally satisfied to announce that we've chosen to continue our cooperation with Century Media for another three albums. After lengthy negotiations with several prolific labels, the dotted line was finally signed and we have full confidence that we've made the right choice and that there are some excellent years ahead – both for us and for Century Media." The group's new album, "Character," will be released in January, but in the interim, the group will release a four-song EP entitled "Lost To Apathy." The EP will also include a music video directed by Roger Johansson (In Flames).
