I've said it once, and I'll say it again, "I wouldn't be surprised if Roadrunner snatches em up after this record."

why not? it will only boost their profile. saying this is extremely selfish and overall dumb-witted. the guys have to make a fucking living, and signing onto a label which will not hinder ANY ARTISTIC EXPRESSION (as we've seen examples of in Opeth and Porcupine Tree signing to roadrunner and not changing anything about their creativity and uniqueness) is something i'd be extremely happy about.

I'd love to see Katatonia get the recognition they deserve.

I say let them sign to Roadrunner if all it will do is get them better tours, exposure, and album sales.

nymphx · November 10th, 2009, 03:53 AM

Roadrunner is a great label with great bangs assigned to it.
I just hope they don't get influenced by the wrong people ... but they're pretty solid so i guess they won't.

also, i have always seen Katatonia as a band in the shadows.. and i pretty much liked that about them to be honest.
and if they sign to Roadrunner i'm sure they'll step out of the shadows so that everyone can see 'em.. and i guess i gotta get used to that ^^.

but yeah, they deserve the recognition idd.

stefan86 · November 10th, 2009, 04:37 AM

Roadrunner is a bullshit nü metal label full of pathetic bands, but if it gives the Katz more money it'd be okay if no masks and hip hop beats start showing up ;P

Lisra · November 10th, 2009, 09:13 AM

Huh.

# Cradle of Filth (2004-present)
# DragonForce (2005-present)
# Dream Theater (2006-present)
# Lynyrd Skynyrd (2009-present)
# Megadeth (2006-present)
# Opeth (2005-present)

Definitely balances all the nu metal they have?
Whatever.. I trust the katas enough that they don't let themselves get ruined by a label change... not all labels are that evil. Roadrunner has enough big sellers, they can afford sth different.

i want to see stefan's reaction to this post

stefan86 · November 10th, 2009, 10:41 AM

Not nu metal, but still pretty much crap

Dauthus1973 · November 10th, 2009, 11:36 AM

I'm off to see Ghost Brigade & Paradise Lost live in Utrecht in a sec. It's gonna be great. The last Ghost Brigade is sharing the number 2 spot in my yearlist with Dredg, and Paradise Lost is @ number 5 at the moment...

BlueSky · November 10th, 2009, 11:56 AM

PT
Opeth
They used to have Type O Neg

and lets not forget da greatest band of all timez ... Nickelback! ... no .. no that's not right .. I mean Nickelcrap.

Edit: Just like any label they have their fair share of crap, but they still have a few top acts. I think Roadrunner would really boost people's awareness of the band.

After it stood in my sisters closet for 11 years I've now watched Fucking Åmål. What a wonderful movie.

Ladies, if inclined for something for the heart, watch it. And force boyfriends too.

except for Opeth i totally agree, new CoF could not possibly suck more cock

but at the same time roadrunner get more shit than they deserve, they have good bands....

Grumble Grumble · November 10th, 2009, 05:43 PM

Ive never been big into the whole i hate label X and love label X, so i cant really say anything of merit. But i dunno chalk it up to the shit bands on RR(with a few exceptions) but i dont want Katatonia on there. I dunno granted i got into them in late 05, ive always viewed katatonia as our/my little secret, granted yes they deserve WAAAAAAAAAY more recognition and respect and adoration than they have, but i just dread seeing a hipster emo piece of shit viewing katatonia as the flavor of the week if they got big. Again i dunno, ive always been kind of a dick when it comes to music, i love what i love, and if you listen to shit music(rap/emo etc) i will talk shit about said music, im just kind of a mean person by nature, but i got plenty of folks who love me :P,tangent bah. But yea while i want katatonia to be HAYYYYYUUUUUGGGGEE i dont want the potential following of bandwagon folks to jump on them.

Bah, if you think what i said is complete retarded shit, im sorry but im just ranting.

Dauthus1973 · November 10th, 2009, 06:25 PM

I saw (only) 20 minutes of Ghost Brigade tonight and they blew me away. Incredible stuff! Inspiring as well... They got better.

Grumble Grumble · November 10th, 2009, 08:02 PM
