In my opinion, AFM is one of the few labels today that care for artist development, their team is really passionate about what they do and they have fresh and exciting ideas. We briefly worked together on Firewind\u2019s Immortals<\/em> album for the North American territory and now I\u2019m looking forward to the full scale collaboration on my next solo album.\u201d<\/p>\n

AFM Records A&R representative Timo Hoffmann shared the following words, meanwhile: \u201cAfter releasing Firewind\u2019s latest studio album Immortals<\/em> in North America earlier this year, we are beyond excited that Gus decided to make AFM the new label home for his solo career as well. No words needed to praise the man\u2019s qualities \u2013 Gus was a household name and highly acclaimed musician \/ songwriter long before he joined Ozzy\u2019s band. Ever since its inception, he is the driving force behind Firewind and in addition has established a solo career, delivering outstanding up-to-date hard rock with finesse. Fans can look forward to a fantastic new Gus G. album which will see the light of day in April 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n

Second studio record Brand New Revolution<\/em> was issued<\/a> in June 2015 via Century Media Records in Europe, Australia and South America, with North American release taking place through Dismanic \/ eOne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
