Iron Maiden's rights sold to Pophouse

By the numbers: Streaming of hard rock songs were up over 12% halfway through 2025 — compared to 5% for all genres stateside, according to Luminate.

Zoom in: The deal also includes a stake in Iron Maiden's name, image, and likeness rights. Terms were not disclosed.

Between the lines: "The catalogs of legacy acts typically generate less revenue from streaming and more from physical sales, airplay spins, concerts, merchandise sales and licensing their music for other media, like concert films, video games and comic books, all of which Maiden has done," — Billboard.
