HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS - Der Streit geht weiter
Der Streit bei VICTORY Records geht weiter. Nun hat das Label eine Klage gegen die Band eingereicht, nachdem HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS bereits vor Wochen mit einem 50seitigen Klageschreiben den Reigen begonnen hatten. Weiterhin läuft von VICTORY aus eine Unterlassungsklage gegen EMI und VIRGIN Records, die wohl schon interesse an der Band haben.
"The case filed by the plaintiffs in this action is really about greed, despite the unfounded and spurious laundry list of allegations made concerning Victory Records ... and its founder and owner, Anthony Brummel, who are responsible for putting the group on the map, The plaintiffs are now willing to say anything — no matter how untrue or defamatory — as a strategy designed to free themselves from their legal obligations to the independent record label that made them famous, in favor of the ´greener pastures´ and financial inducements offered by so-called ´major´ record distribution companies. Unfotunately, it is a common story in the music business."
