The 69 Eyes sign new deal, and look forward to a great future at Atomic Fire Records

Having been haunting stages all over the World for thirty three years, Goth 'n' Roll pioneers The 69 Eyes seem to be a truly immortal part of the Dark Rock / Metal scene. Widely known as the Helsinki Vampires, the quintet gained several platinum albums with 'Blessed Be' and 'Paris Kills' and not only reached the No.1 spots on the single and album charts in their home country of Finland, but also plunged the World into a sinful cosmos of love, death, and melancholy, outliving any other band emerging from the goth hype of the early 2000s.

By developing their sound further into Sleaze Rock on 'Devils' (2004) and 'Angels' (2007) and not shying away from pitch black Elvis allusions in singer Jyrki 69’s dark voice and unique onstage dance moves, the band has established a Worldwide following. Over the course of over three decades, The 69 Eyes has toured relentlessly throughout Europe, America, Asia and Australia and released twelve full-length studio albums. Today, The 69 Eyes announces their signing to Atomic Fire Records (Worldwide excluding Finland). Get your Vampire teeth sharpened as news songs and tours are in the horizon, so watch this space for more news.

“We are back in a full swing! Our paths here in Helsinki crossed with our old A&R guy Gabi Hakanen who was with us when we released our highest selling albums 'Devils' and 'Angels', so as he heard our new demos, we sort of just continued like right after last time. So, he got us in his label's studio right away at Vallila Music House (Hanoi Rocks' Sami Yaffa, Ville Valo and Agents). Simultaneously, we also hooked up with the brand new Atomic Fire Records label which has our classic former Nuclear Blast dream team there, so this ‘new’ and fresh beginning for THE 69 EYES sounds like a dream, really! new big-time rocking music comes out very soon!”. - Jyrki 69 (The 69 Eyes)

“We are more than happy to welcome our beloved Helsinki Vampires, the most unique and by far coolest Gothic band in Hell and on Earth. We worked together for more than ten years and their four latest studio albums, and will continue now, reunited under the Atomic Fire banner. This feels like coming home to all of us and we are honored to continue our long term relationship.” - Markus Wosgien (CEO / A&R - Atomic Fire Records)
