GODHEAD
At the Edge of the World
Driven Music Group/Ryko/Warner Music Group

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
 by Anne Ryan

Combining various musical styles that include industrial, goth, prog, and nu-metal, Godhead strikes a hit with their latest release. With 13 new tracks and five remixes totaling 80 minutes in length, the CD is as intimidating as it is impressive.  The title track brilliantly showcases singer Jason C. Miller's deep and often brooding vocal talents alongside Ty Smith's richly intense drums.  The first single, "Stay Back," offers a classic numetal sound with a riveting melodic chorus and introspective lyrics. "Consumption" is riff-filled, and includes a hooky melody that leaves it ready for radio.  Don't miss the remixes at the end, which offer a very different perspective .. songs.

Ryko Distribution Announces Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Driven Music Group

06/11/08

Ryko Distribution today announced an exclusive distribution agreement with Driven Music Group to distribute all physical and digital releases from Driven Music's artists in the U.S. and Canada.

Driven Music Group was created by Brian "Head" Welch, a founding member, songwriter and guitarist from the multi-platinum rock band KoRn, music industry veteran Mark Nawara and entertainment law attorney Greg Shanaberger. As a member of KoRn, Welch won two Grammy Awards and sold more than 30 million albums. Welch's upcoming solo debut album Save Me From Myself is scheduled to be released by Driven in the Fall of 2008 and will be distributed by Ryko Distribution, along with other Driven releases by Flotsam and Jetsam, 40 Below Summer, Crossbreed, Godhead and Soil among others. Ryko Distribution is headquartered in New York City and is a Warner Music Group company.

In making the announcement, John Esposito, President and CEO of WEA Corp., Warner Music Group's U.S. retail sales and marketing company, said, "We are thrilled to sign this agreement with a young, dynamic company such as Driven Music Group. We look forward to offering Driven the ability to tap into WEA's extensive retail distribution network and get its artists' music out to consumers."

Jim Cuomo, President of Ryko Corp., added, "Independent, genre-specific labels like Driven play an integral role in the business today and this partnership offers them the ability to benefit from our reach and expertise in the independent music community."

Welch added, "I am so pumped to finally get my music out there to my fans. It reminds me of the excitement that I felt when I signed my first record deal with KoRn years ago. I'm equally excited to have a solid system set up to help other artists get their music out to the world. Everyone at WEA/Ryko has already made me and my partners feel so welcome and we truly feel blessed to be a part of the WEA/Ryko family."
