MNRK Music Group has acquired metal label Prosthetic Records, including its extensive catalogue. 

“This strategic move marks a bold expansion of MNRK’s commitment to heavy music, as Prosthetic Records will now operate under the esteemed MNRK Heavy umbrella,” said a statement.

Founded in 1998, Prosthetic Records has released music from acts including Lamb Of God, The Acacia Strain, Septicflesh, Venom Prison, and many more.

As part of the integration, select artists will transition within the MNRK family, while new talent will join the expanding roster. There are upcoming releases from Pupil Slicer and God Alone.

Scott Givens, MNRK’s SVP of rock & metal, said: “Prosthetic Records has been a trailblazer in the metal scene. This acquisition is a strategic step in MNRK’s continued investment in heavy music and aligns perfectly with our vision for MNRK Heavy.”

MNRK Heavy plans to amplify the legacy of Prosthetic Records through digital platforms, physical formats and special releases, including anniversary reissues, remastered editions and curated collections.
