Hackneyed recently inked a deal with Nuclear Blast Records. The group's full-length debut, "Death Prevails", was produced by Roger Gr�ninger and mastered by Achim K�hler and is scheduled for release on July 25.

According to a press release, "These five youngsters are just as convincing as Morbid Angel must have been when they released their first album back in the day! Not only is the band already a bright star in the sky of extreme metal but is also the youngest band Nuclear Blast has signed ever since. Probably Hackneyed are also the youngest death metal act on the planet as the average age of the band members is just 16 years (guitarist Devin being just 14 years old!), but already shredding and grooving as hell ? mark these words!

"Being founded in early 2007 the band has already achieved to play an amount of successful shows as well as draw attention from several bigger bands and also of Achim Ostertag (organizer of Germany's Summer Breeze festival and Ceo of Silverdust Records) who presented the band to the deeply impressed Nuclear Blast staff that signed them right away!"
