jailhouse Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Just got a promo E mail from Roadrunner for an exclusive stream from Kid Rock. Roadrunner must be really going downhill... I haven't paid attention to them in a while, but I remember them for some decent hardcore in the past. hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtw88 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Nothing they do could ever be worse than unleashing Nickelback upon the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexH. Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Yeah, I thought Roadrunner has always been a shitty label. What have they released that is worthwhile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headtowall Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 makes sense since RR is through Warner, and kid rock was on Lava/Atalntic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jailhouse Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 Yeah, I thought Roadrunner has always been a shitty label. What have they released that is worthwhile? Of course personal taste differ, but in the 90's they had Biohazard, Sepultura, Soulfly, Glassjaw, Obituary, Vision of Disorder, the Dresden Dolls, Madball etc. granted I know after warner bought em they started doing some more mainstream stuff, but that was in the last 10 years or so. I haven't really kept up with em since the 90s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjustinz Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/artists/ they've definitely had some good artists in the past, but it's pretty obvious their focus isn't the same it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devinr Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 they've put out some good stuff back in the day but it was always scattered between garbage releases. They released albums by Glassjaw, Vision of Disorder, King Diamond, Merciful Fate, Madball, Biohazard and Killswitch Engage just to name a few. Now they have fucking Meatloaf and Kiss on their roster. Game over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisisahiijack Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 didn't they release a token entry record way back when? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 This is a label that used to be known as Roadracer Records, and is responsible for putting out classic records by Death, Sepultura, Whiplash, King Diamond, and a fuckload more. For all the shit they do now, this is the label that brought us Beneath the Remains. Once upon a time, it was a label responsible for exporting American thrash, and most of the shit they had signed in the 80s and 90s was at least respectable, if not downright awesome.

tooclosetosee Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Slipknot, at least the self-titled if not more. The self-titled album is what I consider to be the best metal album of all time. I also haven't really listened to metal since like 2000 though.
