Up-Front Works (label)

UP-FRONT WORKS Co., Ltd. (アップフロントウォークス) is a record label company that handles the releases of acts under UP-FRONT GROUP. While music released exclusively under UP-FRONT WORKS are typically either indie releases or digital releases, the majority of UP-FRONT GROUP acts release their music under one of UP-FRONT WORKS's subsidiary labels.

As of May 2019, many of these indies releases are now handled by the newly established subsidiary label UP-FRONT INDIES instead, and the UP-FRONT WORKS label itself is now considered to be a major label.
