Splinter Sign to Robotor Records; Debut LP Coming Soon
Amsterdam heavy rockers Splinter have been steadily offering up singles for the last year-plus en route to this eventual signing with the Kadavar-run Robotor Records. They’ve got three to their credit as of now — the last of them was issued as a would’ve-been-Roadburn-exclusive; they were set to play in 2020 — and six songs accordingly that either will or won’t be featured on their impending debut album. When that’s coming, I don’t know beyond the “later this year” it says below, but the band make a fitting first signing for Robotor, given their connection to former Kadavar tourmates Death Alley and general remember-when-it-was-just-rock-and-roll-and-that-was-dangerous-enough vibe. With their to-date unabashed poppier aspects, I’ll be interested to hear where the record goes.
You can see their “Bitter Sounds” video at the bottom of the post, and comment from the label and band follows:
Robotor Records signs Splinter
We’re beyond thrilled to announce our first signing on ROBOTOR RECORDS – ladies and gentlemen, welcome Splinter to our roster!
Lupus comments:
“A really exciting moment in our short label history. We have a long friendship with Douwe and Sander and KADAVAR have toured all over Europe with their previous band DEATH ALLEY. Together with Gertjan from BIRTH OF JOY and Barry, they have now founded the super rock n roll band SPLINTER. It is our honor to work with them!”
The Amsterdam based group will release a full-length album on ROBOTOR RECORDS later this year and we welcome you to follow their socials and stay tuned for more info to be revealed very soon!
Douwe adds:
“It’s an absolute thrill that SPLINTER’s first feat of arms is presented to you all by the cool and fresh ROBOTOR RECORDS. These guys have this (successful) sense of doing things your own way – a DIY spirit that also runs through SPLINTER’s veins. We’ve been hanging out with KADAVAR a lot over the past years, so we’re very excited to seal the friendship even further with this collaboration. And after being kept in the doghouse for so long, our imminent release now tastes extra extra sweet. It’s time to let the rubber band snap, and make it stick!”
