ERRATUM: We apologize to Marty DePietro and Fivebyfive Records for the error that slipped in our April Newsletter about ownership of the Label. The Article should have read: Fivebyfive Records, based in Sudbury, ON and headed by Marty DePietro is becoming completely independent from Umbrella Label OMERTA. They have just signed Brooklyn’s (N.Y.) “As Judgement Day Approaches”, bringing their roster to 20 bands around the world and growing.
