Screaming Ferret Wreckords Gets Fontana Distribution Through Warcon Enterprises Screaming Ferret Also Joins Forces With Vyagra Music

Screaming Ferret Wreckords, LLC. - the New England-based independent metal label that is home to such varied acts as Nuclear Assault, Meliah Rage, Beyond the Flesh, Divinity Destroyed, the Ben Jackson Group and new signing, Try Redemption - has made an arrangement with WARCON
Enterprises to be distributed through their Fontana Distribution deal.

WARCON, the label that has been making waves among
punk rock and post-hardcore circles, has received much attention with their participation in the Taste Of Chaos tour and the recent signing of hard rock stalwarts Helmet. This unique relationship promises to extend the reach of Screaming Ferret Wreckords, giving a much-deserved push and greater impact to their hard-working artists.

WARCON co-founder Bob Chiappardi states, “I’m excited to welcome Tim Koukos and Screaming Ferret Wreckords to our WARCON family of distributed labels. Screaming Ferret represents our first metal music label signing. While
WARCON specializes in post-hardcore music, we have the resources and knowledge to successfully promote & distribute
a wide range of music including metal, punk, etc. We look forward to a long and successful venture with Screaming
Ferret Wreckords.”

Screaming Ferret Wreckords president Tim Koukos says,
“I’m excited and honored to be working with Bob Chiappardi
and the WARCON camp. There’s no question in my mind that their experience and expertise will bring Screaming Ferret Wreckords and its affiliates all the tools and relationships needed to continue the growth of our company.”

Upcoming Screaming Ferret releases include a live DVD recorded during Nuclear Assault’s performance at the 2005 Louder Harder Faster Festival.

The DVD will feature three hours of footage, including the
thrash legends’ complete live set, as well as vintage footage,
two new music videos, two unreleased songs, in-the-studio footage, slide shows and interviews.

Screaming Ferret Wreckords has also begun working with Vyagra Music, based in Allentown, PA. This joint venture will present the upcoming release of a solo album by Seven Witches/Savatage/Bronx Casket Co. guitarist Jack Frost as well as a new DVD from Seven Witches.

About Screaming Ferret Wreckords:

New Hampshire-based Screaming Ferret Wreckords, LLC,
was formed at the turn of the millennium by metal fans that
play in bands and know what they would want from a record label. With experience in all aspects of the music industry,
SFW has already accomplished their goals of building a killer roster of diverse heavy bands, and becoming a recognized
entity in the industry. By building a top-notch support team of radio and media promotion experts, as well as prominent distributors, Screaming Ferret has the personality of a small indie label, but the power of larger labels in the metal niche market.

SFW’s full-spectrum artist roster includes such veteran metal acts as Nuclear Assault, Anvil and Meliah Rage as well as a wealth of exciting new talent. The 2006 release schedule promises to be a powerhouse, featuring bands that uniquely represent every genre of metal, from death to doom to power to metalcore and beyond.

Screaming Ferret Wreckords is run by musicians, sound engineers and music fans, not by accountants, investor groups, billionaires or legions of shareholders. These are people who are in the music business because they love it, they know it, and they live the lifestyle.
