eh, so...japenese only deal? because stretch and daphne loves derby definitely have different labels in the USA.

[dpmurph]

Yah does that mean its only for albums in japan?

Ya... I know that. They signed to this label just to get their record in Japan.

[Pat Marquez]

Sorry, I assumed that was common knowledge. I should have been a little more clear.

[TheEndofGravity]

haha oh well, they will get picked up over here any day now.

[Ruggiero2oo8]

good for them. they're really good.

well...it's not really a record deal, it's more like a distro deal through that japenese label, and I think that's where the confusion is. It's not like this Japanese label now has rights to their masters or anything.

that's awesome though. they get distribution in japan. - sweet!

[Everiggs]

I was really hoping that I would never hear anything about them again on this site.

No such luck.

What Pat is posting is direct word for word from the morning of's myspace bulletin, so it actually might be a real label deal so who knows. What I do know though is that the 2 new versions of The Sound of Something Secure, and Grey Turning Gold sound horrible compared to the demos.

[WheresTheChorus]

this band is great...

im lookin forward to when they release the new versions of some of their demos and other songs on their pv.

[JohnnyG]

who else is on this label? besides DLD and Stretch

[carxunderwaterx]

can bands be signed to 2 different record labels? like one in japan and one here? thanks

It depends on the territory that a contract is for. In this case, the band signed a deal to have their album distributed in Japan (In Ya Face doesn't sign American bands to full record deals). If an American label were to offer the band a record deal, the territory would most likely be for "the world, ex Japan," meaning that the label has the rights to put out music everywhere but Japan, where In Ya Face owns the rights to put out the album.

no wayy. the new version of "sound of something secure", old everybody go to yans, sounds so much tighter. ill agree the other song dosent do that much for me though compaired to the old version.
