Roadrunner Records, Inc.
The label was founded by Cees Wessels in Amsterdam in 1981 in order to license US hard-rock music for European release. Since its founding, Roadrunner has expanded internationally; today it has operations in about ten countries around the world. In 2007 Warner Music Group purchased a 74% stake in parent company Roadrunner Music Group B.V. for about $74 million. The music from this label seems to be going a thousand miles an hour. Roadrunner Records is one of the top heavy metal imprints in the US, sporting such talent as Nickelback, Korn, Rob Zombie, and Dream Theater.
