The US metal band Five Finger Death Punch have revealed that they are the latest artists to ‘do a Taylor Swift’ by re-recording their early work after their masters were sold against their wish.
The band are releasing re-recordings of early hits on two greatest hits albums, starting with Best Of Volume 1 which comes out next month. Their manager, Allen Kovac of 10th Street Entertainment has confirmed that Swift was the inspiration behind the move: “She got them to think a little bit about what their rights were. They want to be able to determine how these songs are promoted, marketed, licensed, visualized.”
