After a lot of touring europe the band released their first full length record “And I won’t stop until you’ve lost everything you ever loved” on UKs Lockjaw Records in 2006. With awesome reviews by the well known music-press (Kerrang, Big Cheese, Visions, Ox, Greenhell) As a two times winner of the Ernie Ball Battle of the bands (in 2006 and 2007) Parachutes played the Rockstar Taste of chaos – Tour in Munich and Saarbrücken.

The year 2008 was the year of the dawning of „vultures“ the current full length record of Parachutes (out on Redfield records / Cargo on the 15th february 08) With Phil Hillen (SU2 Studios Illingen / Powerwolf) as their producer and Troy Glessner (Spectre Studios / Norma Jean, Underoath, He is legend / Beloved / Emery / Haste the day) for the mastering Parachutes brought their music to a new level. The Artwork is provided by Mark Krämer of ME23 (Deadlock, Caliban, Fear my thoughts)

But Parachutes had more in mind for 2009. After the succes of vultures and a lot of touring it was again time to set the sights on new songs and a new record. A bit rougher, a bit darker, a bit dirtier with an more mature sound. That is “the working horse” Parachutes always considered themselves not as the shining star of the team but as the hard working defender who plays for the team. Keep your eyes and ears open for the new and upcoming record “the working horse” out on Redfield Records on September 25th 2009. Again Phil Hillen and Troy Glessner took care of the bands sound and this time the artwork will be made by the awesome sons of nero (Unearth, Every time I die, Senses Fail…) www.sonsofnero.com
