Job For A Cowboy signs w/ Metal Blade

MTV appears to have confirmed the same rumor that has been going around since March: "deathcore" buzz-band Job For A Cowboy has signed a deal with Metal Blade Records. Neither the band nor the label has issued a statement thus far. Nonetheless, the group will enter the studio later this year to record a new full-length, which should surface in spring 2007.

drunkmouthkittensmile 6/10/2006 11:14:22 AM

if you arent so serious about metal all the time, you asses would enjoy this band. sure they may take themselves seriously, but does that mean you have to? enjoy their over the top breakdowns and shitty speedparts.

xRYBREADx 6/10/2006 12:10:03 PM

i was sort of stoked on their new demo track, less BREEs and gay breakdowns. Seemed decently put together, then I saw them live. Absolute horseshit live... soooooooo boring.

threexs 6/10/2006 12:10:47 PM

From their Purevolume: "With the oldest member still in high school, Job for a Cowboy is striving to remain loyal to their D.I.Y. roots," Obviously.

It's not "cool" to hate on this band, they are fcking terrible. Everything about this band is fcking terrible, even down to it's fans. This trend will fade out soon enough and these gays will be forced to jump the next shitty trend.

Document_GraceBudd 6/10/2006 7:16:40 PM

Whoa whoa. Job For A Cowboy better than Converge? Smoking any poles lately? Even new Converge is much much better than JFAC. And I still think JFAC is alright... But Converge OWNS Job For a Cowboy.

ricky 6/10/2006 7:16:55 PM

This band are extremely boring and long, at the 5 song you only got sleep. Don't buy this album if your don't get sleep. Their material is too politics for me and I don't know Ron Reagan

This band play really tight music for their age, and when their record comes out, tons of people will buy it... and you will all still be sitting in front of your mom's computer screen complaining about it.

lesbiansasquatch 6/11/2006 1:39:40 AM

This whole BREEcore genre is the new metalcore. If you want to blame someone for making it trendy blame Despised Icon because thats who everyone is trying to copy. Just look at myspace there is hundred billion bands like this right now.

lesbiansasquatch 6/11/2006 1:39:49 AM

All you gays need to stop bitching all day long about this band. They're obviously doing something right, because they got signed to Metal Blade while your shitty band is still in your garage. Almost 90 comments? Holy fck.

phobophile 6/11/2006 12:39:13 PM

that means absolutley nothing, metal blade has been signing lots of shit bands lately. you gays sticking up so vehemently for this band makes you even bigger gays than they are.

34t4v461n4 6/11/2006 3:16:28 PM

for a band thats hated by so many... sure gets a lot of fcking attention. good or bad... it's still attention.

When a cave in threatens the lives of four miners, including a father and son, it becomes a fight for survival. The superintendent (Mimi Rogers) struggles against the ticking clock to save her crew and family from impending doom.

thealcoholic 6/11/2006 4:02:47 PM

the record will surface in spring of 2007, at which point nobody will care about this band or even remember that this was posted in the first place. ride the hype fellas. its a short and fun one.

btwrguitar 6/11/2006 4:40:41 PM

"808core...these dudes must have been really bummed at the connotation of their name after Brokeback Mountain came out"...best comment ever. Maybe the gave the owner of metalblade a BJ?

grudgeagainstastranger 6/11/2006 6:10:33 PM

It's pretty shitty when a band's concept of deathmetal is along the lines of despised icon. The scene kids needed a new "genre." It will pass. It's not going to sway me from listening to real deathmetal or grind.

SeveredinTwo 6/11/2006 6:33:34 PM

there is no such thing as death core

LetsGetSerious 6/12/2006 1:00:26 AM

this band is such fcking garbage. if you like this youre probably also digging the new underoather pretty hard too.

horrorcosmic 6/12/2006 1:02:22 AM

Job For A Cowboy tonight ( at Infest in NJ ) told me directly that they turned Metal Blade down because Metal Blade requires 4 CDs per band. Jesse from # 12 LLU also confirmed this.

phdevice 6/12/2006 5:15:27 AM

^^ That's funny...because i know for a fact that this deal is happening...unless the band is somehow pulling out at the last minute. Metal Blade has confirmed on many occasions that they're signing the band and have done all but announce it.

ikillinmydreams 6/12/2006 8:53:51 AM

what the fck ever. this band is marketable and you all know it. i don't even particularly like em but i'm not gonna hate like 90% of you gays on here do.

burzum 6/12/2006 10:09:02 AM

meh. i can take some "bree" but enough with the weak songwriting & breakdowns already.

I bet people would like JFAC more if they played everything they do now at 280bpm and used a bunch of clangy bash chords... Congrats JFAC, hope ypu read that contract at least 4 times. Haters are STILL gay.

Did someone just say BREEcore? Holy ass piss, Death Metal is officially dead. The only reason why a handful of these noobs even know a few real Brutal/Death bands is because one of the douche bags from Suicide Silence was wearing one of their shirts.

phdevice 6/12/2006 8:16:30 PM

ColeyThrash, Why does it matter how people find out about bands they end up becoming fans of? Maybe you should quit paying attention to what people wear and start listening to music. And for the record...Suicide Silence aren't douche bags.

xomertax 6/12/2006 11:33:28 PM

Deathcore eh? Why are all these bands labeled that when they sound nothing like death metal? Because they have deep growls here and there?

cancan 6/13/2006 1:22:51 AM

furby 6/14/2006 8:20:58 AM

what the hell are u talking bout? good music, even if i heard them 5 years ago, i´m sure i liked there stuff... u all talking to much bout trends and lost the focus on the music....wake up gays
