In addition to the new DOYLE LP, EMP Label Group will also serve as distribution for ALL Monsterman titles, WORLDWIDE, including LP and CD reissues of Doyle&#8217;s previous release ABOMINATOR, the upcoming release from longtime LA Industrial metal standouts Dead Girls Corp., and more.<\/p>\n<p>  <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<p>EMP, the label vessel of Megadeth bassist David Ellefson, with operations headed up by former Corporate Punishment President\/A&amp;R\/Marketing exec Thom Hazaert, home to artists including A Killer\u2019s Confession, Motograter, Heaven Below (featuring Patrick Kennison of Lita Ford\/Union Underground), Broken Teeth, Doll Skin, Helstar, Cage9, Green Death, Arise in Chaos, former Faith No More vocalist Chuck Mosley, and many more, started out with deep ties into the Doyle camp, according to EMP\u2019s Hazaert.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI worked really closely with Bruce (Miyaki \u2013 Doyle\u2019s Manager) and Monsterman on (Doyle\u2019s 2013 release) Abominator, and I was actually the marketing director out of the gate on that release. Over the years, I\u2019ve stayed involved, and we\u2019re all good friends, and with David Ellefson, who also had a great relationship with Doyle, eventually as EMP came to fruition the conversation inevitably came up about seeing if there was a fit there. With everything else going on in all of our Worlds, it took a bit of a detour to finally get here, but I can\u2019t express how excited we are to finally be able to put this all together. The legacy of someone like Doyle, who is such a legendary talent, is always such an amazing gift when it comes to putting out records, especially for a label like EMP, where we are all HUGE, genuine music fans. And there\u2019s really not many out there who can hold a candle to Doyle, in terms of talent OR legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>EMP President David Ellefson agrees. \u201cI\u2019ve always loved Doyle and we\u2019ve had a great relationship that goes back a long time. We\u2019d started some talk last year when Doyle and Alissa (White-Gluz) came out to do some stuff with Metal Allegiance, and it just became an ongoing conversation over the past year. Now that it\u2019s official, we\u2019re extremely excited to be able to not only push out this new Doyle record, which is amazing, but all the killer Monsterman titles via EMP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Says Doyle: \u201cWhen Dave came to me with an offer for our new CD As We Die it was a no brainer. He has been a good friend of mine for 20 + years, and has never done me wrong, and in this business that\u2019s unheard of. We didn\u2019t want to release it ourselves on Monster Man, we wanted a bigger push and EMP has a lot of exciting things happening in 2017 that will do that for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Doyle, the current project of Von Frankenstein, with Cancerslug vocalist Alex \u201cWolfman\u201d Story, and a current lineup rounded out by bassist Brandon Strate and drummer Brandon Pertzborn, continues the lineage of Doyle\u2019s former projects, pairing crushing metal riffs with ferocious Punk Rock swagger and the theatrical intensity one would expect from one of the reigning kings, and erstwhile creators, of Horror-Core.<\/p>\n<p>DOYLE has recently announced an extensive EUROPEAN TOUR in February 2017, including several dates in the UK, Germany, Austria, Italy, Hungary, and more.
