gmoney Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (Note: The new re-issue vinyl copies currently available for pre-order from Shop Radio are the result of a manufacturing and distribution deal between SRC and Sony that is in violation of Hum’s contract with RCA. We didn’t approve any of it and we won’t make a nickel off of it. Neither party informed us it was happening and neither seems to care about our thoughts on the matter. Just thought you should know what you’re getting there. ) ditc586, 000000, patthickey and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom-feeder style shit if this is true. Will never support you ever again if true. Feel free to retort SRC... THANKS FOR CLARIFYING SRC!!! THEIR GLORY REIGNS!

firefoxUSSR Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Yeah this happened to Glassjaw twice already, cry me a river. Glassjaw however was smart and sold six-dollar-a-piece singles and lots of merch. They even did some touring and still are touring. Hum is lazy, so you know... fuck 'em. I support SRC, especially in light of recent / upcoming / rumored pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean, with real life and stuff? So they are getting screwed by a major label so fuck them right? Glassjaw likes to rip off their fans, so I guess Hum should do the same.

firefoxUSSR Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 haha love the reaction. yes Glassjaw rips off fans, but at least you can buy from the band instead of getting gouged by eBay sellers or SRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
