FAR SIGNS TO VAGRANT RECORDS
Here's the official press release (that I found on Lambgoat):
Vagrant Records is proud to announce that Far has signed to the label. The recently reunited quartet is currently wrapping up their fifth full-length release in The Airport Studio (Deftones) in Southern California with producer and guitarist Shaun Lopez at the helm and an early-spring release date is expected.
"We had no idea all this would happen," says vocalist Jonah Matranga. "We were just planning on getting to know each other again and playing a few shows, in between everything else we've got going on. But now, all of a sudden, the songs are coming, and it feels really good. All we've ever promised as people and as a band is that whatever we put out, whenever we come around, we're gonna mean it."
Matranga adds, "Vagrant is a label that has been smart, hard-working and great to their bands for years and years now. They know where we come from and what we've always been about, which helps a lot. We feel really lucky to be working with them."
Far got their start in Sacramento in the early '90's and released four full-length albums before disbanding in 1999 - a year after the release of Water & Solutions - a release that Alternative Press magazine named as one of the most influential records of 1998.
And here's a shitty cell phone video of their reunion show last October:

water & solutions is a great album.
This is some of the best news I have heard in a long time...
This is crap i have never even heard of these losers, i dont really see what all the fuss is about?
You're a fucking loser Steven go kill yourself.
No Big Mike that is not a good idea! How about i just go listen to some real hardcore instead! Like Earth Crisis, Shadows Fall or REVIVER!!!
