This press release was sent to me as an MS Word file. Rather than try to reformat it into a forum post, here is a PDF file of the press release, and I'm also posting pics below if people want to read it that way.

Not to stir up any shit, but I thought Bad Attitude was signed to SunCity...I just ordered their cd a few days ago.

A buddy of mine told me there was already a question regarding the two different bands with same name of BAD ATTITUDE. David (SunCity) and myself chatted about this months ago and we decided that Eonian's BAD ATTITUDE will not be released until late 2009. We could not help that there were two talented bands with the same name, but trust me ...they sound nothing alike. I think you will enjoy both bands, as I have SunCity's release as well ...GREAT stuff!

when do these actually get released?

Go to www.EonianRecords.com. Each band has their own page and most have a scheduled release date as well. For the most part, we will release between two and four CD's a month with those numbers increasing heading into 2010. Stay tuned as Dan and I are working something out for the loyal Heavy Harmonies visitors. Dan will let you all know the details shortly. Feel free to e-mail me with questions.

Can't wait for Sgt Roxx also heard some new tunes on their myspace page I've never heard before :-

Sgt Roxx

 

How about re-releasing the singers post band Monkey Cocktail cds?

Indie released on cdbaby and could sell more copies on a better distribution scale.

 

I was lucky to by the first release when they were Dying Breed from a kind soul on here and a very good price :banana:

Due to an agreement with Koch Entertainment, the earliest the releases can come out are March 19th....and I believe if you go to the website and click on the band photos, it will show the release dates.

>> Due to an agreement with Koch Entertainment <<

 

Not being a dick or anything here but I can see nothing good coming from this deal. Prepare for headache on top of headache.

 

I will normally not respond to statements like this, but this one I could not resist. I also do not want to sound like a "dick" but you obviously know the record industry better than the rest of us. I think these message boards are cool to talk about what's new, what good, etc., but there seems to be just one or two of people here that always seem to have the record industry all figured out and can obviously do things better than the ones who are actually doing it. Do you know anything about distribution? How about Koch Entertainment? You know ...it would be really easy to just make these CD's available on our website and on one or two online stores, but we want the best exposure for the bands and the label and signing with Koch is a big deal. If it means pushing things back to do things right ...then damn skippy. :headbanger:

 

If you go to our website ...we are no longer putting "guesses" on when CD's will be released. The dates will only be posted after the masters and art have been submitted to our distributors and the titles are being sold to stores. As my buddy Jim said ...the first batch will be available on March 19th. Everything has been sent to press and we are ready to finally launch this new label.

 

We hope you all enjoy!

You and I have spoken on the phone Stephen. Yes, as a matter of fact I know quite a lot about distribution, having been with ADA (Warner Bros) and well, Navarre (now E1 / Koch - the same deal you have, only I had one stepping stone cut out of the path) - for over a decade. I know how they operate, I know all about the "mysterious chargebacks" that come flying at you, and about the "buy ins" to Best Buy, Transworld and the like. I know what it costs to take a 'cut" in the Super D book. I know all about the fact that you (just as a for instance) are going to be paid LAST in the chain of command and how your first royalty cheque most likely WON'T happen until the third quarter of your agreement (and that's if you're lucky). Yes, Koch is a big deal (they also just laid off 25 employees I do believe) but you're a small company (not a slag, it's reality). Koch has a roster of some 500+ collective labels - 60% of which have been turning some sort of profit for them over the past decade. You're brand new and I doubt you have $100,000 to spend on each release (like Compendia, Sheridan Square, Bar None, Schanchie and some others have) so you're going to be one of the low men on the totem pole. I know exactly how your deal works and I'm telling you, in a year you're very likely going to have a major "what the fuck?!?!?!!!!" moment. Do I hope that you do? No, I don't want anyone to. I hope you sell 50,000 albums this year. Do I know "everything" about the music business? Of course not but I've been in it for over 20 years and it's the only real job I've ever had so I think I've learned a little bit along the way.

 

Do you know who Michael Rosenberg is? He took me to lunch - not once but twice. I've also had lunch with Bob Pickering - wonderful person - I'm sure you've at least spoken to him.

 

Good luck. I mean it.

      By TheOriginalSplash · Posted

Other than that don't ask me what there doing they did a little video of them signing contract and it doesn't include John 5 so he's not really part of Motley he's a hired gun..  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3iDklwv1PI&t=2s

      Not much information on the video's page, other than it appears to be an AI creation. Once it gets into the verse and especially the chorus, it's actually not too bad IMO.

      While I appreciate your interest in contributing to the site, most of the artists and albums you are submitting are either REALLLLLLY stretching the boundaries, or as in the case of this band, completely off the mark. No alternagrunge. No punk. No death metal/power metal (although those can be submitted to Brutal Metal). You can always start a thread asking about a particular artist before blindly submitting it for inclusion. Thanks! -Dan

      Deep Purple announce new album =1 (July 19, 2024 via earMusic)

      By whiplash1972 · Posted

      DEEP PURPLE Announces New Album '=1' - BLABBERMOUTH.NET DEEP PURPLE, one of the greatest and most influential rock bands of all time, will release a new album, "=1", on July 19 via earMUSIC. The first single will be unveiled on April 30 at midnight, a taster for the full 13 tracks of pioneering and rip-roaring rock and roll. "=1" is the band's first album with sensational guitarist Simon McBride, who seamlessly slotted in when longtime member Steve Morse left due to personal circumstances. Since 2022, Simon has already played to DEEP PURPLE audiences totalling more than half a million people. ith three consecutive No. 1 albums in their back pocket and a resurgent new energy powering them forward, this is DEEP PURPLE at their pinnacle. "Now WHAT?!" (2013),"inFinite" (2017) and "Whoosh!" (2020) have sold over one million copies worldwide, making DEEP PURPLE one of the most successful rock bands currently active. The latest studio album, "Whoosh!", reached No. 1 on the album charts in seven countries and charted in the top 10 in another 12. "=1" track listing: 01. Show Me 02. A Bit On The Side 03. Sharp Shooter 04. Portable Door 05. Old-Fangled Thing 06. If I Were You 07. Pictures Of You 08. I'm Saying Nothin' 09. Lazy Sod 10. Now You're Talkin' 11. No Money To Burn 12. I'll Catch You 13. Bleeding Obvious In 2022 came the sad news of Steve Morse's departure due to personal circumstances, but DEEP PURPLE, never a band to let a set back throw them off course, sought out the masterful skills of guitarist Simon McBride and played the year out in style, exciting crowds with a new energy and excitement. Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Ian Paice, Don Airey and Simon McBride continue with renewed vitality, pushing the boundaries of hard rock to audiences around the globe, proving that DEEP PURPLE are very much here to stay.
