Takeover is really getting busy now

[i12dude14]

They've signed Staring Back,Bracket,and Paperface.The latter 2 bands are releasing albums on Takeover towards the end of the year,and Staring Back will hopefully release early next year.I think Takeover did a good job of adding(esp.Staring Back)3 good bands.

I LOVE Staring Back, and was so happy to hear they signed them. And I hadn't heard anything about Bracket in a while, good to know they were picked up by a better label than they were on.

Staring Back are good stuff, and real nice guys.

the new bracket is bland and boring. I think ben just signed them cuz they were a favorite fat band. I don't blame fat mike for dropping their asses

[InRecoveryARFWD]

Keep in mind who Fat Mike also dropped.






Fat Mike couldn't tell you the difference between Mozart and John Phillip Soussa.

yeah.you are RIGHT!maybe that´s why he has a big label running that´s selling tons of records.


douchebag.

Apparantly you didn't get what I was saying. Fat Mike dropped Inspection 12. All the Fat bands sound the same, and that's why they got dropped, because they were doing something different.

I know that Fat Mike dropped i-12.he didn´t like get rad. even though I love get rad I understand him.I wouldn´t put out a record that I don´t like either.

all the fat wreck bands sound the same? yeah right, that proves that you don´t know anything about music or the fat wreck rooster.or can you really say that against me!,lagwagon,love equals death,the subhumans,sick of it all,the soviettes,the epoxies,good riddance,etc. all sound the same. common that´s a lame prejudice. "all the fat bands sound the same" I heard that a million times before and it´s just not true.

[GreatScott]

originally i was pissed as hell when fat mike dropped i12. i mean look what happened, we lost pete to yellowcard! But now it's quite clear why. The album starts out too slow. I know fat mike was concerned whether or not i12 could tour, ,but there's truth to fat's point that it wasn't "punk" enough.

anyways, fat wreck sucks now. he keeps signing shitty bands that are made up of hasbeena from older fat bands. and it's hard to argue that most fat bands don't sound alike. But i will say that AGainst ME! is the greatest fat wreck signing since propagandhi. Hands down!

You really should learn some more about the Fat Wreck rooster before you talk shit about it.

Fat Wreck has a rooster?

[i12dude14]

It looks like something is up with Staring Back.On their myspace,they say they're unsigned to take over and they aren't gonna release a record at all.This is a wild guess,but this may have something to do with the whole Ben and Yellowcard situation,since Ryan Mendez played with YC over in Japan,I wouldn't be surprised if Ben was out and Ryan is in.But it's just a guess,could be totally wrong.

Yeah, and you know nothing about it

[InRecoveryARFWD]

Oh lighten up. There's more to life than Fat Wreck bands.
