De Novo Dahl sign to Roadrunner Records - no plans to tour with Type O Negative
Roadrunner Records proudly announces the signing of Nashville’s pop stunners De Novo Dahl. The name, a combination of Latin for “the new” and the last name of creative and visual author Roald Dahl (James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), translates roughly “the new Dahl” – which is a good way to describe their collective approach to music.
The first picture is a screen grab from the mostly-metal Roadrunner Records' homepage. The second picture is one I took of De Novo Dahl at Cake Shop. A match made in heaven?
Roadrunner Records, who actually (well obviously) are branching out, is also the home of Dresden Dolls and the new New York Dolls record (Dahl, Dolls, Dolls). They also used to be the home of Type O Negative, and Type O have a new album coming out on their new label SPV on March 13th. Supposedly this is the cover to "Dead Again":
Peter Steele is in fact alive and well. Listen to De Novo Dahl at MySpace.

If you went back to 1991 (he height of my mullet headed years) with a picture of that band and told me that they would someday be on the same label as Exhorder, Death, Deicide, Floodgate, Suffocation, and Malevolent Creation, I would have beaten you with a BC Rich Warlock

years ago, roadrunner signed a boston band called "the sheila divine," who were incredible but didn't fit anywhere on roadrunner's roster list. after their first CD they were cut. if you want to hear an amazing, amazing CD, pick up TSD's "new parade." it's fantastic.

"New Parade" is a great album. Was it on Roadrunner? If thought they were on Arena Rock. Why aren't they are Arena Rock anymore?

the major reason DND is getting a healthy amount of press over this is this unusual label/artist marriage. genius!
