FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH DROPS NEW COMPILATION

To mark a major milestone, multi-platinum powerhouse FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH is releasing "Best Of – Volume 1", a compilation featuring re-recorded versions of their biggest chart-topping anthems. The launch coincides with the band’s 20th anniversary and serves as a direct response to the recent sale of their original recordings, a decision made by their previous label without notifying the band or offering them the chance to regain their work.

------- "We would have loved to have had the chance to get our masters back, or at least to participate in the negotiation, but we only knew later that it had already happened. We were surprised, but not so much. This type of negotiation done behind closed doors has become all too common in the music industry. Record companies buy, sell, or trade artists' work without their knowledge or consent, treating them as mere soulless commodities. But life is like a game of chess, so when this happened to Taylor Swift, she responded by re-recording her catalog. After this bold and dignified move, his fans began to listen to the new versions as a form of protest and loyalty. We have one of the most loyal and dedicated fan bases on the planet, so I know ours will do the same." -------  Zoltan Bathory, founding guitarist of FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH said.
