SLAVIOR SIGNS WORLDWIDE DEAL WITH INSIDE OUT: : : :
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Slavior signs worldwide deal with Inside Out Music – album to be released in early 2007
Slavior, the new band of former Fates Warning/Warlord drummer Mark Zonder has inked a worldwide deal with Inside Out Music for the release of their self-titled debut album due in early 2007.
A versatile, melodic hard rock/metal act, Slavior’s debut album features elements familiar to Zonder’s progressive metal past, but also introduces a wide array of influences including reggae, hip-hop, and modern rock. Rounded out by Michael Schenker Group guitarist/keyboardist Wayne Findlay, ex-Tribe Of Gypsies singer Gregg Analla, and newest member, ex-Steve Vai/ Ring of Fire bassist Philip Bynoe. Slavior is a band that has been a long time coming...
“For a long, long time, I’ve always wanted to put something together that was based on the drum parts” begins Zonder. “It is very difficult to take a crazy drum idea and try to apply it to someone else’s idea. Most of the time it turns into a mess. If you start with the drum part, and build from there, it seems to work out. With Slavior, the songs are so accessible and groove-oriented, after 15 seconds, anyone should be able to lock into it.”
The band had originally inked a deal with Greece’s Black Lotus Records, but financial turmoil eventually caused the label to fold, leaving Slavior to re-evaluate matters and come to their initial choice of labels, Inside Out.
“You hear the old saying, ‘when one door closes, another opens’ and I think that is the case here,” relates Zonder. “Inside Out was always one of our first choices. I’ve known Jim (Pitulski, Inside Out America President) for 20 years now and to come to his label is certainly something we’re excited about. Even after we inked our deal with Inside Out, we heard from other labels that we were in contact with that congratulated us and said that IO was a classy label. That’s always a good thing to hear.”
Pitulski and Inside Out are eager to start working with Slavior.
“Mark Zonder has been a friend and colleague for many years and I have long admired his incredible skill as a musician,” comments Pitulski. “It is with great pleasure and pride that we now welcome Mark and Slavior to the Inside Out family. The release of Slavior represents a unique challenge for Inside Out in that its sound is not necessarily typical of what we've come to be known for as a label. We're looking at this release as an opportunity to push our own boundaries just as Slavior themselves are pushing the boundaries of modern music.”
Look for Slavior to hit stores in early 2007.

SLAVIOR: All Access Magazine review..

There is something very special about the brilliant self-titled debut release from the band called SLAVIOR. Gregg Analla (Tribe of Gypsies/Seventhsign) on vocals, Mark Zonder (Fates Warning/Warlord) on drums, Wayne Findlay (M.S.G./Vinnie Moore) on guitars, keyboards and bass. The quartet have created a musical masterpiece that is deep and emotional. The production is incredible, the music crystal clear, crisp and tight. It's rare to find a release that has zero flaws, but this band is among one of the best balanced, and most inspiring efforts I've heard in quite a long time. I could go on forever about how brilliant this band is, but to truly understand, you must experience it for yourself. Like a fine wine or high end audio system only those who listen carefully or those who know will be able to detect the sheer genius in the songwriting and the musicianship of this band, a band called SLAVIOR. - The Atomic Chaser, The DRP/ All Access Magazine
