Hawthorne Heights to release live CD+DVD

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by aubin on Thursday, September 28, 2006 at 1:45 PM (EDT)

Despite being embroiled in a significant legal battle with their label, Hawthorne Heights has already begun work on their next release.

The band is promising that they will soon bring a new CD+DVD live package recorded during their stint on the Nintendo Fusion tour, which kicked off yesterday. The band has also launched a news message board and is encouraging showgoers to report back on their experiences.

The DVD would be the band's second, with the previous edition being released earlier this year, in between the band's two Victory releases, If Only You Were Lonely and The Silence in Black and White.

As the band's label status is at the root of the current lawsuits, there is no word on who will be releasing the live package.

Worst band ever.

Translation of previous comments: I am a tineared piece of lazy slacker trash that will most likely be homeless after graduating, quitting, or failing high school. Anything with an actual melody in it makes me run screaming in the opposite direction.

Hawthorne Heights is music for 16 year old girls who are going to go up to marry burnout guys who will become shallow businessmen on the bottom of the ladder and will end up getting pregnant by these said men and get fat, become housewives, lose touch with reality, and will bitterly divorce their hubby a few years down the line when he ends up sleeping with the secretary.

As for the guys who listen to Hawthorne Heights, they’ll become those shallow businessmen and end up living a depressing life as a suit & tie and will eventually become conservative douchbags that spend every night drinking and watching Fox News.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

that statement is probably more true than false. Also Fox News is the worst channel ever. Bill Clinton calling them out was extremely rad

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

Actually, that statement is all false.

You're right about Fox News, though.

kill_FFTL (September 28, 2006)

the simpsons, that 70s show.

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

That's a different Fox network, pal.

Archangel (September 28, 2006)

I listen to a lot of music with far more melody than Hawthorne Heights could write, and I still think the band is God-awful.

It's not their attempt at melody that makes them shitty.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

no more comments, that is all anyone needs to know

Hawthorne Heights has already begun work on their next release.

correction: Tony has already begun work on their next release.

The band has also launched a news message board and is encouraging showgoers to report back on their experiences

Would rather clamp my balls in a vice. Or slam my dick into a door. Or watch the WNBA.

there is no word on who will be releasing the live package.

CARBON COPY DUUUUUHHHH!

Someone (September 28, 2006)

isn't Carbon Copy somehow related to Victory, like distro or something?

Dusticles (September 28, 2006)

no it's a record label started by one the people in Hawthorne Heights

Someone (September 28, 2006)

I knew that, but I think it is somehow tied to Victory because of that.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

tony is notorious for tempting artists with their own "imprints" sometimes they are already victory artists, sometimes they are people he is desperately trying ot sign. basically he fronts the bills, you sign the bands.
but theres about 90 pages of contracts selling your soul for the deal, and it can dissapear at any moment. that moment usually being when tony decides he doesnt like you anymore.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

Best band ever

Someone (September 28, 2006)

That was pretty funny.

aubin made up the "contributed by an anonomous source," you know he loves this band

JonathonFallow (September 28, 2006)

I was actually thinking that, too.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

You could always start your own site if you don't like how Aubin runs PNO.

Oh wait, that would involve money and affort. Looks like you may be sticking to complaining about this sites content on the message board.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

So I was walking into the main stage at Bumbershoot right after Hawthorne Heights finished and yellowcard was playing next and this emo kid with a girl haircut walking out says, "Yellowcard rock on" and proceeds to give me the rock horns in sarcastic fashion and I just thought to myself wow, hawthorne heights and good charlotte are my two least favorite band ever because they actually think they are punk/hardcore.

Yellowcard is so much better than that band of shitheads known as Hawthorne Heights.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

Limp Bizkit are like musical gods compared to these guys.

mikeinflames (September 28, 2006)

this is probablly an album to get out of thier contract legit

2+ Replies

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

Probably not. The lawsuit has yet to be heard, let alone settled.

mikeinflames (September 28, 2006)

they probablly only had one record left on thier contract
thus by putting out a live album they will meet the terms of thier contract and they can get the fuck off Victory
a lot of bands do it
and a lot of bands on victory have been planning on doing it lately

Someone (September 28, 2006)

earlier reports said hh has two records left to cut with victory. fuck victory and fuck hh.

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

And... HH's contract with Victory said that the master rights, song publishing, and band's trademarks still belonged to... ta-da. The band.

I would not be surprised if the band were putting out this release themselves.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

That's fucking amazing. I am surprised that Tony Victory doesn't have allllll that shit on lockdown.

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

Well, what do you expect? He's so fucking stupid that he apparently doesn't read his own contracts!

SalsaShark (September 28, 2006)

Still better than Linkin Park. I despise Linkin Park.

cjmarsicano (September 28, 2006)

First post that isn't a knee-jerk,obscenity laden attack on either the band or the label.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

dev (September 28, 2006)

Shhhhh, just please shhhhhhh, ok? No more.

Someone (September 28, 2006)

First off, I dont know why anyone would pay to see this band live much less buy a live dvd.
They suck ten times worse live then they do on cd.
