Metal label?

If you were in a metal band what record label would you want to be signed to? I know a lot of my favorite bands are signed to the same Record label like Century Media so that would be my choice..

P Diddy's Bad Boy Entertainment

Metal Heaven! I think they have been putting out some of the best metal...

Good Pig Bad Pig, and if not them the AFM.

I wouldn't really mind, as long as they put us out there

Probaly Metal Blade because it would be cool to be part ov such a historic metal label.

He does. Even the albums he releases on the other sub-labels are really solid. I've liked everything he's released under the Sensory label, though. Even the stuff by Canvas Solaris, and I'm not a huge fan of instrumental music. But Canvas Solaris just have something those other instrumental bands lack. What it is, I don't know; but it's awesome.

I will have to check them out. I have been on a instrumental psychedelic kick as of late with bands like hidria spacefolk and quantum fantay. Heck even the other label stuff he stocks for the distro is great. I am eyeing the new Moon Safari cd that he is re-stocking..

PANORAMIC LONG-RANGE VERTIGO
SINUSOID MIRAGE

Those two are good examples of the bands range, even though there are no vocals. If you can dig those, you should like their other albums. They have a new one coming out through Sensory soon, too. If you're interested, their first two albums can be had on clearance at Tribunal Records (here and here) for $3.99 and $7.99.

SPV
AFM
Nightmare

Locomotive for me! Or Massacre!

Wargod48

At one point I would have said Century Media but I am really liking Locomotive (semi-big label) and Nightmare (small label-although they have sold over 2 million albums since 1990) these days.

Does it really matter at first, if they like take you to the top would you care?

Intense, Combat(R.I.P), Nuclear blast, Metal blade. It dosnt really matter though to me.

If you're in a band, make sure you don't handle negotiations with a label. Yes, of course it matters at first!

Retroactive isn't just for dinosaur bands anymore.

Roadrunner so they could re issue our album a week after it comes out, then again a year later remastered, then 5 months later remixed, 2 years later remixed and remastered, 1 year later remixed and remastered with a bonus dvd, then last but not least 4 years later a box set including the original version of the album, remastered version, remixed version, remixed and remastered, a bonus dvd, bonus live songs, and extensive booklet with lyrics rare pictures, liner notes writen from someone weve never heard of before, and a rub on tattoo
