Melbourne's Midnight Juggernauts have signed an international licensing deal with EMI for all territories outside Australia.
The band, who have had a massive year in Australia, have signed an international licensing deal for their label Siberia Records.
It breaks down like this, Astralwerks will get their album 'Dystopia' in the USA, Virgin will get it in the U.K. and Japan, Capitol will get it in France and EMI will take the remaining territories.
In an e-mail sent by the band to friends, they said of the deal "'...the overseas EMI deal is a licensing deal for their own label Siberia, and all the midnight juggernauts work is still produced and controlled by Siberia Records (Midnight Juggernauts) and released on this label, though distributed through the EMI network worldwide (outside of australia).
"because of this the band were able to get quite an amazing deal in regards to ownership, creative control and percentages which reflect and maintain the ''indie'' nature of their approach along the way.
"Basically the band are just happy that they won't have to compromise their path but will now get their music across to a larger audience overseas.''
