Good lord, what is Epic thinking...
The Spinal Tap of "emo," The Juliana Theory, have announced that they have signed to Epic/Sony Records:
"It was a difficult decision, but after all the deliberating, we chose Epic Records and are very excited about our future with them....Everyone at the label seems to have a good grasp on our music and our vision as a band."
I personally despise this band, but news is news. I just pray that these guys don't make it big. To read the band's full statement, click on "Read More."
We are currently writing and demo-ing songs for our third full length
record. It will be released on our future label home, Epic Records. Yes,
rumors have been circling around all over the place, and we are signing
with Epic/Sony Records. It has been a long and difficult journey
deciding where our new home would be, but we made our choice. First of
all, we want to thank all of the kind people from all of the labels who
drove us around and took us to eat and hung out with us. We really
loved everyone that we met and got to know. It was a difficult
decision, but after all the deliberating, we chose Epic Records and are
very excited about our future with them. We also want to say that
everything is still positive between us and all of the people at Tooth
and Nail. We want to thank everyone there for all of their hard work
and dedication. We know how rumors and false truths can be spread, so
we wanted to put all of them to death before they are born. We are still
on good terms with everyone at Tooth and Nail. So anyways, back to Epic
records: We feel very comfortable with our decision and are happy about
our new home. Everyone at the label seems to have a good grasp on our
music and our vision as a band. It was very important for us to find a
label that would not want to mold us or change us at all. We know that
Epic understands what we are and what we hope to be, and we know that
they will only try and help us achieve those goals. We will keep writing
the songs that we want to write the way that we want to write them. We
feel that this move will be a positive one for both the band and all of
our fans. We will keep you posted on how the writing and recording of
our new record is going.
