FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND haben bei Roadrunner Records unterschrieben (weltweit, EX-US / CA / UK).
Roadrunner Senior VP International Wally Van Middendorp sagt zum Signing: We are looking forward to working with Funeral for a Friend and value their understanding of the importance of New Media approaches in our campaigns. Overall we are very encouraged to be taking their developments further in our territories and share a strong global focus.
At the risk of it sounding like a calculated press release I can honestly say that Roadrunner Records were THE label that got me into hard rock and heavy metal growing up. Having come full circle and established our own record label, it feels great to be working alongside people who have been responsible for putting out some of my favorite records of all time - Ryan Richards, Schlagzeug
Look up Heavy Rock or Metal in the music dictionary and you'll find the name 'Roadrunner Records' next to it - they helped define both those genres by releasing a ton of classic albums that sit at the top of my list of favourites! It's gonna be amazing to work with them and am looking forward to a successful relationship together - Darran Smith, Gitarre
