Blender magazine has posted their February cover story for Fall Out Boy on their website.
Drummer Andy Hurley has responded on his Twitter account with his thoughts on the article. The Tweets are below. ok, i just read the whole blender article. its not as bad as i thought, and as you guys made me feel it would be. it is misrepresenting us GROSSLY. but, mainly just pete. and that infuriates me. and the joe part, about him feeling like not a part of the band...i know that was COMPLETELY taken out of context. it wasnt said like that, and wasnt meant like that. weve talked about it. and pete was not acting like any of how he was represented. not at all. i was there. that makes me mad. that being said, i dont think i was actually represented that bad i didnt take the suicidal thing as being written in a serious way...but it is a dumb thing to write in an article a bunch of ppl who dont personally know us will read, and who take it as the gospel truth of what happened. so that was bad..but i know it was meant jokingly anyway, fuck that article. its dumb. nothing to get bent out of shape over. listen to both 'the solution' records. amazing soul band featuring nick 'royale' andersson from the hellacopters/entombed. fucking amazing. -a i never hit a door for 45 seconds. i may have been yelling, like all my friends and i do, but if i did anything that crazy, it was as a joke for everyone there-a there was no secret breakup. its all bullshit they made up for a story. they just tear pete apart on bullshit and twist our words. im not super stoked with how that article came out. it makes charicatures of us all. it makes me look crazy. -a everyone, the blender article is pure bullshit. its sensationalist bullshit made up to sell a story. its out of context quotes and it sucks-a ok, im gonna go read and hang. thanks for letting me vent about the blender article. im all good though. its seriously bothers me for half a second. haha. night-a

Not gonna lie, that video was pretty sweet. I can think of 20 other albums I'd rather see get HALF this kind of marketing push without even blinking. Then we wouldn't have to listen to the "music industry" whine about how poorly they are doing week after week, month after month, year after year due to downloading. I'd totally forgotten this sucky band existed and now I almost want to see if this album is actually any good. |
ITUNES GOING DRM-FREEPosted by Brian Shultz on 06-Jan-09 @ 06:51 PM
Apple's iTunes will soon be completely DRM-free. Digital rights management (DRM) refers to limits placed on media files, such as how many times they can be copied and to what devices or locations.
The iTunes Plus service is now DRM-free, with the entire catalog expected to be similarly unrestricted come the end of March. They've also unveiled a new pricing structure, with single songs selling for $0.69, $0.99 or $1.29. The move is being analyzed as one that will better compete with Amazon MP3's DRM-free digital store. |
