I've heard that the American record label Warner Bros. Records has been changed its name to Warner Records since last May after 15 year royalty-free license to the Warner Bros. Shield logo and name has ended. That's why its parent company Warner Music Group was sold by Time Warner (now WarnerMedia) in 2004.

Sadly the Warner Bros. license has been expired.

That was a shame wasn't it?

Warner Bros. Records may be gone but not forgotten and I will always remember that former logo.

I thought I couldn't believe it.

I wish AT&T-owned WarnerMedia (formerly Time Warner) or Warner Bros. should buy Warner Music Group sometime in the future.

Anyway hello from Ireland 🇮🇪

And it would be nice if they used the Elektra name again, that was a great label, as is Atlantic.

The sun has sunk down into the horizon, not only for Warner Brothers Records but for for the music industry itself.

Warner Bros.

Warner

WB

The record label not affiliated since 2004 made a great decision. the iconic Warner Bros. film and TV studio uses all three anyway i.e Warner Animation or Warner Channel, they were founded by the four Warner brothers (Harry, Albert, Sam, and Jack Warner).

For 61 years It was called Warner Bros Records
I think they changed the name because maybe the rights to the Warner Bros name and shield logo expired and they had to rebrand since Warner Music isn't owned by Warner Bros Pictures anymore

imagine turning yourself from a shield to a cut off circle

[stevenhoshiko]

You probably paid millions of dollars to a graphic design company, and they gave you a circle. I hope you kept the receipt.

Change the logo, people are not liking it and you know this... At first I thought this channel is hacked because of the logo!

[dinosaur]

My guess is that the record label didn't want to spend money for a license renewal (from the Warner Brothers movie studio) to continue using the Warner Brothers name and logo. In reality, there hasn't been an actual Warner Brother at either company since 1967 or 1968, when Jack Warner retired.

By the way, Warner is an Anglicized version of Wonskolaser or Wonsal according to Wikipedia.

Remember, Zappa was signed to Warner Bros. for 8 fuckin' years. 😁

Thank you by the way for allowing me to do something nobody's ever done before on that scale.

Warner Bros. Entertainment already own WaterTower Music. To avoid brand confusion, Warner Bros. Records was renamed Warner Records.

[stevenconrady]

I'm sorry but the new logo looks kinda lame.

[steadfastcoward]

All we are saying is give Jac Holzman and the Erteguns a chance. Elektra Atlantic Records Group (EAR)...Sounds Fantastic!

[hotfudgeypasta]

Okay cool but when will there be a release date for the Dark Nights Metal soundtrack

[Merdicano]

Very interested about this, the home of my favorite music artists, I'm looking forward to see what brand new artists they will bring; although you could have done better with the logo

Good things lie ahead! Congrats on the nee change.
