monk0nuggets Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 No wonder no one will respond to me or answer the phone. "I want to give everyone an idea of where things stand with LMMG as of now and where things will be in the future. At this point LMMG will not be able to continue to provide distribution services for labels. We had hopes for the last several months that we'd be able to find a way to move forward but the triple hits of an expensive merger, a dying business and a bad economy have made it impossible. We are hoping to be able to get some money to labels, but I'm not sure how much or when as we have to try and collect money from customers. If you have not yet moved your distribution to another company, please make arrangements to do so as soon as possible... I am very saddened that things ended up this way, it was certainly not from lack of trying to make it work. Many people put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into LMMG over the past 12 years and I'd like to thank each and every one of them. I sincerely hope that you are able to continue in your business and continue to support great music." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suburbanargyle Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Apparently they've been fucking over labels pretty hardcore in this deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xjustinxschwierx Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 they've been fucking people over for years so this is no surprise. this only pushes the point of why we (people who run small labels) should be more thankful of distros like No Idea, Vinyl Collective, Revelation & Interpunk* who actually pay labels on time or at least dependably. *obviously not the definitive list of reputable distros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forgeagain Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Yeah, I didn't even get this email but saw about it on Punknews. I actually voided my contract with them a few months ago but they owe me thousands of dollars and still have a bunch of stock. I will be getting the stock back at least, but that doesn't help much.
