[PIAS] announces deal with Ipecac
By Chris Cooke | Published on Thursday 11 December 2014
The [PIAS] artist and label services company will provide marketing, sales and distribution services to US independent Ipecac in all markets outside North America from 1 Jan next year, it’s been confirmed. The deal will include the new album from Ipecac co-founder Mike Patton’s Faith No More, their first studio release in eighteen years.
Confirming the new alliance, Ipecac’s other co-founder Greg Werckman told reporters: “Mike and I and the bands are very honoured to be joining the [PIAS] team. We have had great respect for the [PIAS] system for years. With the addition of Faith No More and their imprint label Reclamation Recordings, we felt it was the right time to step up and increase the Ipecac visibility worldwide. We have been fortunate to develop such a strong and loyal fanbase over the last fifteen years and will continue to offer unique and eclectic releases”.
[PIAS] Artist & Label Services MD Adrian Pope added: “We are very proud to start a relationship with Ipecac at what will be one of the most exciting years in their history. It’s quite special what Greg and Mike have achieved with the label in their own way and the release of a new Faith No More album will be one of the highlights of next year for both existing and new fans around the world”.
