Giant

Giant Records was founded in 1990 by Irving Azoff and was initially part of the larger Warner Music Group. The label primarily focused on rock and pop music, quickly gaining recognition for its diverse roster. During the 1990s, Giant became known for signing notable artists such as Van Halen, Faith No More, and the Goo Goo Dolls, contributing to the era's rock scene. The label also explored country music, signing artists like John Anderson and the duo Big & Rich. In 1999, Giant Records was absorbed into Warner Bros. Records, leading to a decline in its distinct identity. Despite its relatively short lifespan, Giant's impact on the 1990s music landscape remains significant, particularly in the rock genre. The label's legacy is marked by its contributions to the careers of several influential artists and its role in the evolution of popular music during that decade.
