Roadrunner Records have announced the worldwide signing (excluding North America) of Orange County’s ATREYU. The group’s upcoming new album, Lead Sails Paper Anchor, will be released in Europe on August 27th.

Vocalist Alex Varkatzas comments, “We’re excited to be on a label with a roster we respect and with such a strong track record overseas. The ATREYU / Roadrunner combination is going to really shake things up, we feel confident about this relationship and can’t wait to start crushing together!”

Lead Sails Paper Anchor was produced by GOLDFINGER’s John Feldmann (Good Charlotte, The Used, Lostprophets). The track listing is as follows:

1. Doomsday
2. Honor
3. Falling Down
4. Becoming The Bull
5. Lose It
6. Two Becomes One
7. No One Cares
8. Can’t Happen Here
9. Slow Burn
10. Blow
11. Lead Sails (And A Paper Anchor)

Drummer/co-vocalist Brandon Saller concludes, “Roadrunner has been supportive of our band for a very long time, it’s great to finally be an official part of the family. We love travelling to other parts of the world; now we have a label who will actually support us in doing so!”
