Philly hardcore act Reign Supreme mentioned in a recent interview that they are leaving Deathwish Inc. They will be releasing their new EP entitled “”Sky Burial” on Mediaskare Records. Here’s what they had to say about the upcoming EP,
“I think a lot of hardcore kids will talk shit, but lets be real here, we’ve never done well at united blood, we don’t tour with the newest hype bands every year. Those kids dont like us anyway, FUCK EM. Kids who do like our band will be siked, and I think they will be glad to have some heavy new jams from us. The new stuff is a little different from our older stuff, but I think its way angrier, and more mature. Its just meaner.” When asked about the decision to change labels they said, “Yeah, its not a very popular move, to leave deathwish. I think we just honestly felt like we weren’t going to be a band much longer if we didn’t start trying some new shit out. That meant changing our approach to songwriting, surrounding ourselves with new and supportive people, and just being prepared to take a chance. Mediaskare is a label that a lot of bands we play with are on, and they’ve always treated those bands very well. I guess we thought it was time to put out our music to a new audience, and try to step out of our comfort zone a little bit.”
The band’s last release, “Testing the Limits of the Infinite,” came out in 2009.
