I agree, and I don't think the distribution deal has had any effect on the rights to the songs that were recorded before that contract was signed. I got a copyright complaint for posting a snippet of LOAP on social media last year and it came solely from UMG, so it seems like they're still the sole owners of the rights to the older stuff.
