Nomeansno leaves Alternative Tentacles
with this info from the AT newsletter: "Nomeansno to leave Alternative Tentacles - Nomeansno have informed us that they are leaving Alternative Tentacles Records after a 15 year relationship and over a dozen releases. The split is amicable, yet the label feels shocked, saddened and bewildered by the announcement. There wasn't any voiced disappointment by the band, rather, the band and their management decided to merely end the arrangement. They said that they wanted to control their records. But heck, thats how it goes! This is the music industry (well, kinda). Effective April 15, 2002, Mordam Records, our distributor, can no longer distribute the Nomeansno catalog, rendering the entire catalog no longer available to the public. (That is the bewildering part as they haven't announced a new label or distributor. So their items will be effectively out of print.) (Also included is the Hanson Brothers album. Not included is the Jello Biafra & NMN release.) We will continue to sell our remaining stock (what's left of it) through ourmailorder for the next few weeks until we get rid of it all. So, ALL NOMEANSNO LPs on SALE for $4.99 until supplies last AND ALL NOMEANSNO CDs on SALE for $7.99 until supplies last. We wish the band the best of luck in the future."
