New York’s PIVOTAL ROCKORDINGS (Relocated from Florida) has announced that Eden Fire, the debut album from Swedish metallers SONIC SYNDICATE, will be re-released through Koch Distribution in the US and Canada on December 9^th.

For a side of SONIC SYNDICATE that many have not yet experienced – a band unshaped and untouched by the mainstream music industry, Eden Fire is not only a mandatory incredible album filled with cult classics and fan favorites, but also a piece of history that documents the beginnings of a young underground band on the edge of its explosion to fame.PIVOTAL ROCKORDINGS owner Leevan Macomeau comments:

“This album started it all for the band as well as for our record label so when given the opportunity to give this release the proper North American distribution that it never received, we were more than ecstatic.  We are looking forward to cooperating with France’s LISTENABLE RECORDS and North America’s KOCH DISTRIBUTION in order to bring our catalogue to the masses!”

Eden Fire was originally released on September 13^th, 2005 and the band has since released 2007’s Only Inhuman and 2008’s Love And Other Disasters via NUCLEAR BLAST records.
