<a href="/wiki/Hard_rock" title="Hard rock">hard rock</a> music. Founded in the Netherlands in 1980, it is now a division of <a href="/wiki/Warner_Music_Group" title="Warner Music Group">Warner Music Group</a> and is based in New York City. Formerly seen as one of the most powerful independent metal labels of the 1980s and 1990s, it would eventually become a massive host of metal acts; most seen in <i><a href="/wiki/Roadrunner_United" title="Roadrunner United">Roadrunner United</a></i> and the following live concert. Since then, the label had continued to put out major releases, though by the 2020s, most major acts had left the label and it had been acquired by Warner Brothers, being relegated to something much smaller than before. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Roadrunner_Records&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The label was launched in 1980 in the Netherlands. Roadrunner's initial business was importing North American metal-band recordings into Europe. In 1986, Roadrunner opened its US headquarters in New York City and later opened offices in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, Denmark, Russia and Canada. Early successes included albums from <a href="/wiki/King_Diamond_(band)" title="King Diamond (band)">King Diamond</a> (the first Roadrunner artist to enter the <a href="/wiki/Billboard_200" title="Billboard 200">Billboard Top 200</a> albums chart) and <a href="/wiki/Annihilator_(band)" title="Annihilator (band)">Annihilator</a>. The label also handled early <a href="/wiki/Metallica" title="Metallica">Metallica</a> releases in the Scandinavian region. The end of the 1980s saw the release of two albums that are now considered classics of their respective genres: <a href="/wiki/Obituary_(band)" title="Obituary (band)">Obituary</a>'s <i><a href="/wiki/Slowly_We_Rot" title="Slowly We Rot">Slowly We Rot</a></i> and <a href="/wiki/Sepultura" title="Sepultura">Sepultura</a>'s <i><a href="/wiki/Beneath_the_Remains" title="Beneath the Remains">Beneath the Remains</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The 1990s saw the arrival of acts such as <a href="/wiki/Cynic_(band)" title="Cynic (band)">Cynic</a>, <a href="/wiki/Deicide_(band)" title="Deicide (band)">Deicide</a>, <a href="/wiki/Life_of_Agony" title="Life of Agony">Life of Agony</a>, <a href="/wiki/Machine_Head_(band)" title="Machine Head (band)">Machine Head</a>, <a href="/wiki/Suffocation_(band)" title="Suffocation (band)">Suffocation</a>, <a href="/wiki/Type_O_Negative" title="Type O Negative">Type O Negative</a>, and underground <a href="/wiki/Grunge" title="Grunge">grunge</a> rockers <a href="/wiki/Willard_(band)" title="Willard (band)">Willard</a>.

Sepultura's 1993 album, <i><a href="/wiki/Chaos_A.D." title="Chaos A.D.">Chaos A.D.</a></i>, became the first Roadrunner band to crack the <a href="/wiki/Mainstream_Top_40" class="mw-redirect" title="Mainstream Top 40">Top 40</a> on the <a href="/wiki/Billboard_(magazine)" title="Billboard (magazine)">Billboard</a> album chart.
