According to Fueled By Ramen (www.fueledbyramen.com)'s "Wonderland" video (see the splash page of their website), they've signed a new artist. Who could it possibly be? We'll find out on in about a week.

Cassino... on Decaydance.

I heard rumors of a band signing, but I don't remember the name.

this providence actually has a PERFECT sound for fbr too...but my gut says Forgive Durden

aminorthreat55

11/15/05, 03:35 PM

CIWWAF or someone else.

Over It, there was a post about them and something big a few weeks ago

I doubt it but Saves The Day. Man that would be cool. I would say Suburban Legends but I doubt they are label shopping. Maybe Lucky Boys Confusion since they are unsigned and they said there are some new things coming. If it isn't any of them which it probably isn't I wonder who will sign these bands.

i'm guessing Forgive Durden, but probably not because they don't sound like fall out boy.

hmm...who could it be?

Maybe Cute is What We Aim For. Punchline are recording with the same guys that just did Cute's new stuff. Maybe that's a coincidence, but I dunno.

fallingapart101

11/15/05, 05:08 PM

I'm now saying the Higher because they just cancelled a bunch of tour dates to record and they said this had to be done. Then they do a little tour with Panic and Kane

11/15/05, 05:10 PM

hahaha i kno who it may be..........but hush hush

fluke182

11/15/05, 05:13 PM

I'm guessing Over It, but because it was Scott who posted this I am hoping that it is Forgive Durden. That would be a great Christmas present, and they have Kane Hodder so that would be two bands on FBR that have Northwest connections.

jfb392

11/15/05, 05:24 PM

I have confirmation from FBR that the band is not Cute Is What We Aim For.
Rumor dead.

NoseOverTail

11/15/05, 05:26 PM

Thank God.

Over It on FBR would be the tits.

JohnnyQuest

11/15/05, 05:28 PM

Is all this Wonderland nonsense, like, a story driven song or album? If so, there's no way CIWWAF could pull that off. The only FBR-rumored signee of the moment that's weird enough to do that is Forgive Durden. effing songs about rainbow colored ostrages and magic rivers or whatever the eff they sing about.

cinematic_life

11/15/05, 05:30 PM

it's forgive durden
listen to "beware the jub jub..." and compare it to "wonderland"
sounds like the same style
i'm happy for these guys. good stuff.

lftcoastenvy05

11/15/05, 05:31 PM

im thinking its forgive durden from the artwork and bg music of the video. i definitly didnt get that "over it" feeling from what was playing

tommyhaych

11/15/05, 05:33 PM

Its Cute is what we aim for.

BeerNSluts

11/15/05, 05:35 PM

Haha, you got confirmation. I bet you did. About 7 of you guys have said it already.

11/15/05, 05:35 PM

Rumor dead.

thank the lord god if that's true.
i got some fairly negative confirmation as well...

jfb392

11/15/05, 05:39 PM

Haha, you got confirmation. I bet you did. About 7 of you guys have said it already.Go the the FBR site and contact someone.
The rumor isn't even close, dumbass.

HolyCrapola

I have confirmation from FBR that the band is not Cute Is What We Aim For.
Rumor dead.

The band is slated to record their Fueled By Ramen debut album with Matt Squire. They signed about a month ago. Janick at FBR was pushing them to Squire and they wanted to go with Tim O'Heir. I talked to Matt about it and he talked to Shaant on the phone... it's all a done deal, producer and label wise. The band has 100% definetly, guarenteed, no doubt about it, signed to Fueled By Ramen. However, it doesn't necesarilly mean they are the band being mentioned in this video... and if that's what you're talking about, I apologize. They have definetly signed to FBR though.

P.S.- Why the hell would an employee at FBR tell some random kids who email them if they signed a band or not? Especially if it's supposed to be kept under wraps...of course they'd deny it...duh. Hahaha

I'm going to say it's Thursday who signed to FBR.

FUCK ITS A JOKE, CALM DOWN!

11/15/05, 05:56 PM

that means nothing...

how many times did jay z deny dating beyonce in interviews and shit? (i'd understand it from beyonce's point of view, but why would he deny that?) ..best comparison i had.

marexvitalis

11/15/05, 05:57 PM

i think it's pretty obvious who it is, but maybe cause i already know? hmm. a lot of people around here seem to already know what band signed to fbr.

HolyCrapola

11/15/05, 05:57 PM

It'll be officially announced eventually. The band obviously got a lawyer when they did for a reason...

11/15/05, 05:58 PM

by the music, it's fucking forgive durden, and that makes it closer and closer to having a full length in my hands from them...

Well, I'm the one who originally made the post and I'm from Long Island... so by your science it could be Billy Joel or Mariah Carey who signed to FBR. :thumbsup:

Anyone else watching the Country Music Awards on CBS? This shit is nuts... NYC has never seen a ho down like this.

Scott Weber

11/15/05, 06:04 PM

Yeah, I'm thinking it's Nirvana too.
i heard FBR is going on a grunge spree, and they signed all the big seattle grunge bands. i think this one is Soundgarden.

Scott Weber

11/15/05, 06:04 PM

maybe, haven't gone to any in a long time. i'm pretty sure we share mutual friends though. aren't you friends with rachel (the one from edmonds)? i remember looking at her myspace awhile ago and you had some comments there. i could be mistaken though.

Scott Weber

I actually despise grunge. good thing i live in seattle where it's worshiped.

That doesn't mean anything.
I just saw them last week.
They said that it would be announced soon who they signed to, that they were not able to say who it was yet, and that 'drive thru but not' was all he would give in way of a clue.

But this Wonderland thing, no way is it them.

11/15/05, 07:33 PM

CIWWAF IS definately signed by Fueled By Ramen. But given Ramen's ways of announcing bands only like a month before their CD is released, I don't think this announcement is about Cute.

Luda

11/15/05, 07:36 PM

Actually, I think they're trying to get a different type of music. My guess is 50 cent.
