I'm still thoroughly confused by the whole Kiyoharu and Kuroyume mess. Like, how did Kiyoharu own the rights to Kuroyume in the first place? Doesn't Avex take tight control of their bands?

Then again, Kuroyume got away with anti-pop songs, so maybe Kiyohar was able to negotiate things where he'd own the rights to Kuroyume when they signed to Avex?

  Yeah it's all down to contract, Kuroyume as an act had been popular for almost a decade at the point of signing with AVEX. The label also took over all of his solo stuff and SADS work too, so to them Kiyoharu is what you call a "life-r" (someone who remains with the company even when doing different acts and projects) He's someone respected enough on the scene and in the business that it's not unwise to leave him with creative control and save a fortune on his contract by not insisting on buying his name(s) (something that he could just refuse and look for a less tight-fisted company.
  
  this is a guess
  
  Idk shit about the music industry, everything I know about contracting and promotional rights is from profashional rassling.
