Messengers Sign To Strike First Records

Hardcore and metal label Strike First Records has signed Dallas, TX based hardcore group Messengers.  The band is scheduled to release their first EP, Anthems, for the label on November 9, 2010.  Vocalist Chad Paramore comments on the signing:

Signing to Strike First really is a dream come true.  We have followed Facedown for years and years and it became a huge motivation to us.  We have seen the bands that shine on Strike First be pushed up to Facedown, so even having this stepping stone makes us that much closer to being a part of the Facedown Family.  We already feel like we are part of the family.  The whole team has treated us with the up most respect and we could not ask for anything more.
