Artist description Since 1988 Century Media Records has consistently become one of the world's leading independent metal record labels, with seven current offices worldwide.Delivering quality releases from an array of artists that span thegenres of traditional, goth, death, black, power metal andhardcore, Century Media's influence on the world's currentmetal scene(s) has steadily increased throughout this decade. Flagship artists such as Samael, Tiamat, theGATHERING, Moonspell, Iced Earth and Stuck Mojo have been around since the label's early days, while newcomers to the label such as Skinlab, Lacuna Coil and Cryptopsy have vaulted from cult phenoms to viable contenders in the last couple of years. As the world's metal genres continue to grow and expand on themselves and past accomplishments, the visibility of the music itself becomes brighter every year, and every year Century Media continues to push the boundaries and propel their artists into the public eye. Annual hard rock/metal festivals such as Dynamo Open Air in Eindhoven, Milwaukee Metal Fest in the US, Wacken and With Full Force in Germany, and of course Monsters Of Rock continue to attract more fans each time, and each year more and more Century Media bands appear at these festivals. As well as marketing and selling music from all Century Media artists, the label's Los Angeles operation distributes albums and music from over 80 other independent labels from around the world (many of which would not have distribution in certain territories without CM), making the Century Media Mail Order department one of the busiest branches that the company currently has going. As the 20th century comes to a close and the metal realm continues to gain momentum throughout the world, Century Media is leading fans to musical fulfillment with the best of all genres of heavy music. The new millennium seems to have most of the world guessing about what the next year will bring, while CM is already making plans for musical world domination. So please, continue on....
