According to Hits Daily Double, Sanctuary Records, under the newly installed leadership of Bob Cahill, is moving over to RED Distribution in the U.S. Sanctuary has been under the BMG, then Sony BMG, banner for over six years.

Sanctuary will release the new IRON MAIDEN album, "A Matter of Life and Death", on September 5. The CD will also be available as a limited-edition special deluxe format which contains a bonus DVD. The DVD contains nearly an hour of documentary footage plus videos and photos all shot while the band were making the album. The documentary, titled "The Making of A Matter Of Life and Death", directed by Matthew Amos ("Early Days", "Death on the Road" DVD documentaries) features candid video footage shot largely by producer Kevin Shirley himself during the recording of the album giving a real behind-the-scenes look at life in the studio. The bonus DVD also features the full 7:21 minute video promo for "The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg", and a special intimate filming of the band recording "Different World" in the studio. "A Matter of Life and Death" will also be available as a limited-edition double picture disc vinyl in gatefold sleeve, and as a digital download, available through the newly launched official IRON MAIDEN digital store, where you can buy single tracks, a bundle, or an album for your PC, or your MP3 player.

It's genetic 4 any Brit to buy Maiden, so I'm putting cash aside for it now. Although I must say, I didn't like that "Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg" much.
