Or unless you're still signed to Capitol records, who likes to fucker up everything they do.
The Dandy Warhols left the label because they fucked with all their records too.

Make a good album, keep expectations in check and enjoy the returns on personal expression that you're lucky enough anyone wants to pay attention to. It's simple. Plus you get to keep whatever money you make. Shit, you can even license a song or two.
Unless you're lazy, overly-cautious and entitled.

On last week's Dark Matter (while Dave was gone) Todd talked about how much Dave hates TNO because they label stepped in and forced the sound into a particular direction.Juana wrote:I would love for that to happen as long as he got someone like Albini in there to record it and not allow him to turtle wax the shit out of the songs and just leave them as is.
If Dave is left to make his own record, i think it will end up sounding just fine. From Rhimorse and Spread, to the instrumentals for TGEA that we heard (and even Ritual and NS where the band had full creative control), it's pretty clear that the dude can write an amazing sounding record when some label asshole doesn't poke their nose in.
