There is a lot to be said for a guy who kicks out half his band, replaces it with his brother and some other dudes, then gets famous and tries to payout his former band members/ex-co-songwriters with moderate sums of money to cut them out of future royalties. I know that’s the biz, but AF has gotten famous off of taking advantage of the extremely low-paid artists and talent in Montreal who they have employed–and I use that term very loosely. Win may be a nice guy, (he was nice to us when we were helping out with Neon Bible) but it’s not worth it to work for them. They’re cheap and they’ve pissed off a lot of folk.
Wayne Coyne FTW!
