Get a life.

You're not far behind my friend. Not much else to do eh?

 

 

 

You Don't Like Reckless Love Jarred?

Or Alice Cooper?

Never been a fan. Not sure why but I never got into him. I'd rather hear Krokus version of Schools Out.

You're killing me, Smalls.

 

Not to rub salt in the wound but Change of Address is also my favorite Krokus album

Yay........

Don't sound too excited buddy! Where's my present???

Nope. Sounds like a poor mans Crashdiet or Crazy Lixx.

 

 

 

 

Hate to tell you this, as I know the band, but they made next to nothing from Spinefarm.

Simple fact is the best way for bands to go these days is self releasing because unless you are big, record labels (just like the old days) dont give a shit.

If you look at a good portion of the bands on this database who were on genuine record labels back in the day, I can bet you a good portion of them made no money or ended up in debt to the labels, and certainly got no support.

A good example is a band like Pretty Boy Floyd. They were on MCA, had some buzz around them at the time, were about to go out on a headline tour, but then the label pulled the rug out from under them and refused to finance the tour.

 

There is a chance that JB are still on Spinefarm as their profile is still on their website, but if they are doing this while still signed with the label, then the most they will get is probably a distribution deal.

 

As I said before, its good that bands now have this option because back in the day, bands got screwed over left and right, and thats why so many bands only ever released one album or have unreleased albums that are only just coming to light.

 

Bands these days have a lot more options to get themselves released than bands in the 80s. Yeah, none of them are probably gonna become mega stars now, but being on a label is no guarantee either.

I agree but in all fairness how many people had heard of Spinefarm before the Jettblack cd? I assumed it was the name of the record company they chose for themselves to release their stuff. There are labels out there that don't screw the bands over, such as Frontiers. Or as you said, they can finance it themselves and put it out on their own, which is a great option for bands today if they can afford to do it.

 

Look there is an argument for both sides and I hope they put out another killer album because I disagree with most on here and think the last album was awesome...but I ain't paying for them to do it. I will surely buy it when it comes out though.

Spinefarm are now owned by Universal, so there will always be politics involved. And as for who had heard of Spinefarm before JB? Well a certain Reckless Love might tell you otherwise.

Dont forget that Mr Cooper is also on Spinefarm these days as well.

 

Not trying to say anything bad about Frontiers, but even they are not a sure thing for artists because if it was nobody would ever leave them. An artist can only release through a label if the label wants to release them and obviously Frontiers cannot sign everyone.

I don't know who Mr Cooper is and I actually think Reckless Love sucks so JB is the only SF artist I have ever seen.

 

Frontiers would sign them I'm sure since they are better than a lot of the bands they have signed.

 

I believe he is referring to Alice Cooper.

 

Good, I don't like him either. Killer golfer though!

The album would not really have been any better because the music would have been the same. Gary just wrote lyrics to what Ed/Al had on them...no rearranging, no changing...just wrote over existing music/arrangements...Malloy would have had to do the same thing.

 

Also, I find it funny that Mitch and Gary tell the same story about them thinking they were "IN" the band when they saw the MTV thing...how could they both think that at the same time?

I also believe the album would have been different anyway. Some songs would have been better fit for Mitch than Gary. No one knows how it would have gone down or if songs would have changed. That would just be speculation.

I see no reason for him to lie about the story. He was respectful of the band when speaking of them.

Finally had a chance to just skim over these and wow, it's a shame they didn't release these on cd. What a nice collection of tracks and they sound good to me. I'm going to give them the truck sound system experience and dig further

Ugg...well, I might have expected anyone fucked up enough to do porn can't be that beautiful right? ***silence***

Anyway, a few of these girls the fucking make-up didn't even help.

Wow...what could have been. This would have been so much better than the Cherone album. Listen to the only finished track from their writing together. This whole thing is great, especially if you are fans of either.

you are only forced to have car LIABILITY insurance in case you cause damage or injury to someone else.

 

obama care is doubling or tripling costs 85% of the country to help the 15% and it does NOTHING to help control or even restrain medical costs.

 

and if obama manages to pull off his amnesty crap (adding 11 million more people who will qualify for nearly free insurance),, you really think 11 millions mexicans are going to run out and get free condoms because obamacare will cover contraception?

It is a general comparison I was making. My point is that it's something else that is forced on us, but it's a piece of shit.

This is no different that being forced to have car insurance, other than the fact you use your fucking car every day and may go the whole year without using your insurance.

We had great prices on family insurance through my wife's job and now we are going to have to do some fucking health savings plan.

Everything is going to get jacked up by the insurance companies and small business people will have to close their doors because they can't offer it at a good rate, because they will all go up.

This may be the worst president in history...

Why the fuck put all those out and not these -

 

Hot All Through The Night

You Gimme What I need

Our Moment

Away From You

Wrecking Machine

Happy Happy Me

Within The Sleaze

Those Eyes

Out Of The Cold

Tomorrow

 

They are all killer and yet to see the light of day..................

 

I know a couple of them, but not most of them. How does a young punter get his ears on those ones?

 

 

You tube is the only way (i know of) :-(

 

Nobody has these:

 

 

I saw this on Ebay the other day. It's just someone self making a bunch of demos floating around on the internet. Sound quality of most is bad!

I had a user name to download stuff for years and now it appears to be defunct? Did they change the name again??? Frustrated...

I always liked "Against the Law" the most, followed by the debut.

Against the Law = underrated

Wow...this guys is just fucking amazing. I am a big fan and he sang his ass off on this song. Not to mention, damn guy doesn't look like he has aged a bit since 1990. Geez...

Is this song on one of his albums? I don't have Faith...can't find it anywhere.

I'll pay for them NOT to make another album ;-)

Really? You don't like them? I'm surprised...

Look I get the reason for doing it but that's what banks are for if you aren't going to use a label (though I find it hard to believe no one would want them). This is what you chose to do for a living. The climate is ever changing and record companies are going away. That still doesn't mean I am paying the band to do the album. Do I need to name the 76 bands that have had great albums then put out a turd?

I hope they get it, put out a great album and blow up huge but it ain't going to be me financing the damn thing.

Mine has been pre-ordered and still waiting for it $11.99 though with free shipping for the CD/DVD Deluxe edition is a great price though.

I have to say, I love all of their releases and Michael's solo stuff is just as awesome.

I'm not at all singling out this band, who I'm a big fan of, but I hate that we the fans must now serve as the financial department of the record label these days. There have been so many of these campaigns lately on sites like Kickstarter, PledgeMusic, Indiegogo, etc. Some fans might be honored to help, some people might consider it a fresh new alternative, but it's really just depressing when you truly think about the reason things are this way now.

Back to being positive, JettBlack rocks and I'm glad that they're making another album.

I agree. It's not our job to finance your art. Put it out and if it's good, I will buy it.

 

 

 

The one on the website won't be a collectors item...it's for download only. Bummer...

I don't have any problem with it being a download--I mostly buy downloads now anyway, as they're more convenient for my particular lifestyle--but I refuse to pay $28 for a download. That's just being greedy ... and while some of those songs are pretty good, they're not so good that I'm willing to spend $28 for them. Guess they'd rather sell a limited number of downloads for $28 than sell a lot of downloads for $9.99 or less. Their songs, their perogative ... but I'll get by without the songs, thanks anyway.

I'm not pay $28 for the cd let alone downloads. Jesus.....Just wait five minutes and it will be all over the internet.

 

It already is. I have it. PM me if you guys want it.

 

Thanks man, appreciate it!

Samples:

 

They sound a bit more like they did in the early days but it sounds a lot like "been there, heard that". Granted I am not a huge Fate fan even though I do own their early albums. To me, nothing will ever top Scratch N Sniff.
