SUMERIAN RECORDS DROPS SEA OF TREACHERY, BECOMES HIGHER % TRVE SUMERIANCORE

 Friday, September 25th, 2009 at 11:30am by

sea of treachery“Reliable news source” Lambgoat is reporting that San Diego, CA-based deathcore-ish band Sea of Treachery have either been booted from or left Sumerian Records, depending on who you ask. I’d never heard of this band, so in due journalistic diligence I did my research. I’d like to posit the following theories for why Sumerian kicked the band to the curb (because, really, why would any band leave a label with as much current clout as Sumerian?):

  1. They suck.
  2. They aren’t Sumeriancore.
  3. The most popular song (by far) on their MySpace page is a cover of Paramore’s “Misery Business.”

Apparently the band is un-phased, as they’re currently recording a new album and have a mammoth U.S. tour booked for the fall.

Less bands like this and more bands like Periphery k thx.

          Sarcasmia is my favorite band on Victory. Not too many seem to have heard of them though.

            the only two bands on victory that are any good are Between the buried and me and Darkest Hour.

    if you “did your research” you’d realize they’re from cincy ohio, not san diego.

    • http://www.vadercabinets.com Tim-o-tato

      Theyre based in SD now I believe, since they have been recording with Andrew Glover (bass player for Winds of Plague)….It’s all about the OC!!! lol

        yeah yeah yeah. i guess so. you move to a city, you’re not from there. what a bunch of turds. your time is short when you start covering Paramore. haha!

        • http://www.vadercabinets.com Tim-o-tato

          True that, if your covering songs by a band that is still playing that 5 out of 7 days a week on tour, then where the hell do you go from there….
          But ANY publicity is good publicity these days…

    “research” ~ barely!
    a research is when you actually listen to them and not just look for their most popular song.
    they’re actually pretty good, im not a big fan of them but they’re still pretty good.

      Yeah I liked them too. I was a fan of them before the name change and the signing to Sumerian. I like their first album quite a bit. Not too much of a fan of their new stuff once they started adding the clean vocals. Disappointed that it didn’t work out with Sumerian for them, but it happens.

    Definitely Sumerian’s weakest link. Band sucks live, too. Just an all around failure.

  • metalguy

    like um but always thought they didnt fit in with the death-prog-core teen prodegy bands on sumerian

  • bobbys

    they got the boot because jerry their manager was once winds of plagues manager but ash from sumerian swooped them and now theres animosity between ash and jerry. therefor ash gave them the boot because he only signed them as a favor to jerry…and they suck..

    • Ziltoid
