Alpha Omega Management has announced the signing of the legendary Bay Area thrashers Trauma to its roster family.
Trauma was formed in 1980, having in their original line-up the iconic Cliff Burton on bass guitar, before joining Metallica in 1982. The band quickly became well known throughout California, playing at all the legendary venues, and their first ever recorded track “Such A Shame” was included on Metal Blade Records, Metal Massacre II album in 1982. Their Scratch And Scream (1984) album has long been considered a classic heavy metal collector’s item. Shrapnel Records remastered and re-released the album in October 2013, and Trauma reformed with a new lineup for the album re-release. In July 2014 Trauma played at the Headbangers Open Air Festival, furthermore the same year Trauma signed a worldwide contract with Pure Steel Records. Their latest effort Rapture And Wrath was released on February 27th, 2015. The band released a video of one of the new songs, “When I Die”, in February 2015. Trauma is currently writing material for a new album and is in the process of securing live touring dates.

The album will feature original band members drummer Kris Gustofson and guitarist Jeff Jones. Mike Palombi who joined the band last year will be handling the lead vocals.
