Record Label

Linkin Park

Linkin Park are part of Warner Bros. Records, who are one of the biggest record labels in the world. It is part of Warner Music Group, who are the third biggest major music companies worldwide. They have artists from a wide range of genres signed to them such as trance DJ Paul Oakenfold, social conscious rapper Talib Kweli and hard rock band Disturbed.
Linkin Park signed a deal with Warner Bros after years of working independently, and released their successful first album Hybrid Theory on it a year later.

Our band

We have looked at a variety of record labels for Fall Line to be a part of, such as Epic Records, Universal and Sony. We ultimately decided on Roadrunner Records, who are a subsidiary of Warner Music Group. Founded in 1980, these have largely had a focus on signing metal and hard rock acts. They have many artists similar to Linkin Park in their roster, such as popular ensemble Slipknot, who also have nu-metal influences in their earlier work like Linkin Park, as well as lesser known more contemporary acts like Hail the Villain.
