+ RELEASE iNFORMATiON +
-----------------------
Roadrunner Records has evolved -- over a staggering 25-year history -- from an unassuming Dutch import company into one of the most innovative record labels in the world. Fiercely independent since its start, graced with a passionate staff, and incomparable musical talent, Roadrunner has achieved something that many labels seek and never attain, let alone maintain for a quarter-century: brand recognition. The Roadrunner logo has come to mean two things to millions of fans around the world: a high standard of quality in musicianship and presentation, and an unwavering commitment to the best, most unique, and most intense in the
hard rock and heavy metal genres.

Just as Roadrunner has taken the lead so many times on the artistic side, finding and developing acts that have literally changed the face of heavy rock, so too has the label come up with a brilliant and inventive way to celebrate its 25th anniversary. Paying homage to its past, giving a nod to its future, and framing both in the most creative terms possible Roadrunner is poised to release an album of original new heavy music, played by some of the genre's best and
most highly-regarded practitioners.

"In June 2004, Roadrunner's owner, Cees Wessels, asked me to come up with an idea to celebrate Roadrunner's 25th anniversary," recalls A&R visionary Monte Conner. "I knew that for it to be really special, we would need to come up with a record that involved many musicians, one that was truly a collaboration on a grand scale, with songs written by, played by and sung by different people. An album that would cover the entire history of Roadrunner and feature some of our most legendary artists from the past, right up to and including musicians from our newest signings."

The idea was formulated to create four "teams" -- each headed by a "team captain." Each team would consist of a core of musicians -- two guitarists, bassist and drummer -- who would lay down basic tracks for four original songs written by the team captain. Each song would use a different vocalist, and no player could appear on a tune by another team. The team captain would select a studio in which to cut the instrumental tracks, while the singer was free to record where it was convenient for him and was also instructed to come up with lyrics and a vocal melody on his own.

Roadrunner United was thus born in August of 2004. The label now had a year to assemble this vast and complex project, and the first things that were needed were the four cornerstone musicians -- the team captains. Several criteria were established: the captains had to be comfortable in the studio and know how to produce music, they had to be primary songwriters in their own bands, they had
to be well-respected names in the metal field, and they had to encompass the Roadrunner history from its past to its future. The four captains -- Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison, Machine Head frontman Robert Flynn, former Fear Factory guitarist Dino Cazares and Trivium frontman Matthew Heafy -- filled that bill admirably.

"I thought it was a great idea and was really excited about it, because it was a chance to work with a lot of artists that I really respected while I was growing up," says Jordison. "I was just honored to be kind of the first guy they asked." Like Jordison, Cazares was flattered to be considered: "It's definitely a compliment to be a team captain. I've been with the label since 1992, and we
were a big part of Roadrunner history." "It was awesome," says Heafy about the experience of being selected to oversee one-quarter of this ever-expanding and important project. "Being able to see different musicians in the studio, and they way they work and play, was really cool."

In the end, an astounding total of 56 musicians from 44 different bands were utilized on the album, an amazing organizational feat and a sign of the respect and that each player had for each other and the label itself. "I've heard some of the tracks from the other 'teams,' and they're fuckin' unreal," says Jordison. "This thing has come out better than anyone expected. When the captains wrote the material, they wanted to make it the best possible, and when you brought all these guys in to play, they wanted to do the best possible. Everybody stepped up."

[Carn]

Ik moet helaas toegeven dat de nummers van Johnny Jordaanzoon eigenlijk boven de rest uitsteken, met de nummers van meneer Heafy op de 2de plaats.

[Stevill]

Ik zie al een aantal goeie namen in dat lijstje van je RRsletje.

Misschien moet ik maar een keer de wijdere broek aantrekken.

[FaZ]

ziet er zéér goed uit

Erg vet idee, al die nummers met verscheidene artiesten.
Jammer dat Jeff Waters niet een plaatje heeft geschreven. Dan had ik het misschien nog gehaald

Ga het nu maar eens even checken.
