Nuendo tells us:
TORONTO - Hamilton, Ontario-based progressive metal band, VARGA, has just unleashed their 3rd full-length studio recording, 'Enter the Metal,' via the band's own label, Vargantuan Music. Currently available digitally on iTunes and Amazon.com, there are several formats of hi-resolution downloads available for purchase from the band's own vargahq[dot]com website. CD’s will begin shipping and in stores November 14th, but can be pre ordered from vargahq[dot]com until then.

Comprised of members Joe Varga (bass & vocals), Adam Alex (guitar), Sean Williamson (guitar), and Dan Fila (drums), the veteran band (originally formed in 1989) has built a large and loyal following of heavy metal fans, particular in their home country, on the strength of such popular releases as 1994's 'Prototype' (released via the Zoo label), which spawned the hits "Freeze Don't Move" and "Greed," earning the band a thumbs up on the then-popular 'Beavis and Butthead' program on MTV. After over a decade apart, Varga reunited in 2011, and issued their awesome reunion effort, 'Enter the Metal' (their first new studio album in 17 years).

The album was produced by long time friend and producer/engineer, Julius “Juice” Butty (Alexisonfire, Protest the Hero), and recorded at both Six Nations’ Jukasa Studio, and Butty’s own Silo Studios. As the band's leader, Joe Varga, states, “In this collection of music, you’ll hear a return to our metal and progressive roots with songs laden with heavy licks, crazy time changes and insane vocals.”
