Capitol Records signs Crooked X

Capitol Records has just signed Oklahoma youngsters Crooked X. The intense yet melodic rockers have recently confirmed the deal and the bands debut album is expected to be released January 13, 2009.

The band has toured with KISS in Europe and recently appeared on the MTV special alongside Ted Nugent "Start A Band - Rock The World."

Spencer Proffer (Quiet Riot, Tina Turner, WASP), who oversaw the album on all facets and produced Crooked X along with Michael Wagener (Ozzy, Skid Row, Poison): "They're pure to rock & roll, a magnet back into classic rock that's direly missing these days. They write melodic, timeless, powerful rock with elements of Zeppelin, Metallica and AC/DC. But it's fresh and from their perspective; for today's generation. That rang my bell loudly, being a fan who is steeped in rock & roll and has made my life's work in it. I knew I had to get involved."
