Los Angeles based metallic hardcore band, ALPHA & OMEGA has signed to 6131 RECORDS for their debut full length. The band previously released their “Devil’s Bed” 7″ on the label. ALPHA & OMEGA have entered the studio with Paul Minor (H2O, Thrice, Unbroken, New Found Glory, Unearth), who is engineering, mixing and mastering the as of yet untitled album.

Guitarist Aaron Jamilli, commented, “We are really excited to be going into the studio to record our first full length. This record is definitely going to be hard hitting with a few surprises. I feel we have hit our stride and found our sound musically as a band.”
