Agreed.AsModEe said:I've figured with time that a lot of metal fans have stupid reasons to bash everything.
Hear, hear.Guardian of Darkness said:In which case, they shouldn't sign to the label in the first place. Or does the label force them into that too?
Agreed. They do need a better songwriter, though. I always was impressed by the band's attention to classical development, but in every song even that grows tired.I take it you aren't blaming the label for that? 'Cause that'd be fucking dumb.
yeah, lots of labels do that. They wouldnt just throw money at a band without approving of what the payed for.....although some doDissolution said:It may not be the main reason but, did you know that in Century Media, every time you record a new album, they have to aprove it before to start with all the releasing process?

the alumnus said:here's a good reason why nuclear blast sucks:
every good release they have has some sort of "collector" crap. i'm sure if they released the new dissection album there would be
a)a regular edition cd
b)a digicase edition
c)a stupid incompatable with my car cd player shaped edition
d)a re-release with bonus live tracks in a year when the first edition is out of print
e)a collector's edition with something silly added
nuclear blast is notorious for putting out all these multiple editions. look at how they handled dissection already. when the "where dead angels lie" ep went out of print they packaged it on the storm of the light's bane cd. so now a fan either shells out big bucks on ebay for the out of print ep or repurchases a cd he or she already owns. and the dissection live album that had a mere 7 tracks, one of which was an intro. add to that the fact that they put out a dvd with it that was limited release only so that they could jack up the price on it. i'm sure they'll make it a general release in 2 years just to screw the people that shelled out top dollar when it first came out.
Agreed. The bands do it themselves.Dodens Grav said:The bands do it themselves.
Dodens Grav said:It's not the record company's fault for those bands though. They chose to suck. Only Dimmu Borgir on that short little list didn't always suck.
Even if the label put pressure on them to "evolve" into a second rate version of their former selves?Dodens Grav said:Either way, it's not Nuclear Blast's fault that they suck.
