In December 2009 Mama Group was acquired by HMV who had shown no interest in this part of the corporation therefore the label Best Before Records was taken over by label manager Anthony Shaw and became a fully independent label distributed by PIAS Entertainment Group in the UK and Europe. After separating from its parent company, it continued to develop a strong label identity and effectively launching several new artist careers including ‘Dananananaykroyd’, ‘Johnny Foreigner’, 'The Heights' and ‘The Morning After Girls’. Taking on further bands like Sharks, 22, Mutiny On The Bounty, ACODA and most recently Death and the Penguin and American Fangs. Shortly after in August of that year, Best Before Records, along with many other PIAS distributed independents, lost a large portion of their stock in the fire stirred by the London Riots that subsequently put the label in jeopardy and brought them to the brink of bankruptcy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Best Before Records」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
