HYDRA HEAD RECORDS - Feierabend

12.09.2012
 

 

Aaron Turner (ebenfalls bei ISIS) beschließt, die 17 Jahre Labelarbeit (u.a. CONVERGE, ISIS, THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES, TORCHE) an den Nagel zu hängen:

"The decision to pull the plug has not been an easy one, and in some ways is a not a choice at all. The simple fact of the matter is we've been running on empty for a while now and cannot afford to keep our doors open for much longer. Years of imbalance between creative ideals and financial realities, personal problems amongst the label operators, an unwillingness to compromise our aesthetic standards, a tendency towards releasing challenging (i.e. unmarketable) artists, and the steady decline of the music industry in general, are amongst the chief reasons for our inability to continue."
