Chavis Records has announced the signing of DC4, the Los Angeles-based hard rock band featuring former DIO guitarist Rowan Robertson alongside brothers Jeff Duncan (ARMORED SAINT, ODIN) on lead vocals and guitar, Shawn Duncan (ODIN) on drums and Matt Duncan on bass. "Explode", the latest effort from DC4, saw a very limited release late last year year and will be reissued with an all-new package design and new artwork.

"Explode" was produced by Joey Vera (ARMORED SAINT, FATES WARNING).

Jeff Duncan and Shawn Duncan of ODIN fame and notable for their appearances in "The Decline Of Western Civilization - The Metal Years" formed DC4 with brother Matt Duncan in 1995 and released their debut EP, "Mood Swings", produced by Joe Floyd (BRUCE DICKINSON, WARRIOR). In 2001, DC4 released "Volume One", which was produced by Joey Vera. Robertson, who is best known for his dynamic guitar wizardry on DIO's "Lock Up The Wolves" album, joined the ranks in 2006.

DC4 will hit the road later in the year in support of "Explode".
