I now consider Epitaph press releases to be flamebait.

eazyd (May 1, 2008)

i consider you to be a fat idiot. epitaph rules. did you know they release the first albums from offspring and operation ivy and against me. and now they are staying relevant with fresh new talent coming through like story of the year and i am ghost. get educated before posting moron.

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

I've never heard of Epitaph before. How do you know so much about them? Can you tell me more?

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

They were started by Fat Mike.

VStoriesFallen (May 1, 2008)

I've heard of him. Isn't he in Escape The Fate?

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

Yeah, after he quite Pennywise to campaign for Ralph Nader.

eazyd (May 1, 2008)

actually he started 'fat rec-chords' but nofx did release an album on epitaph long time ago. before they were all faggot vegans haha lol

VStoriesFallen (May 1, 2008)

Huh...Wikipedia has nothing when I search fat rec-chords. You must be a lying liar.

eazyd (May 1, 2008)

you must be a fuckin retard to be checking facts on wikipedia. no wonder there are so many misinformed 14 year old 'punx' on this website. go listen to your gaslight anthem and boys like girls and have a good cry

LookBackAndLaugh (May 1, 2008)

Wait... did you just use the attack most people use against I Am Ghost to people... making fun of I Am Ghost?

This entire string of posts is hard for me to understand who's sarcastic and who is sincere.

mikexdude (May 1, 2008)

...did you just use the Gaslight Anthem as an insult?

LookBackAndLaugh (May 1, 2008)

I know this won't mean a thing to you, but Epitaph still has Converge. And that counts for something to me.

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

And Bad Religion. And I guess technically the Bouncing Souls, although I'd bet a month's rent their next record won't be on Epitaph.

All three bands are awesome. It's just now like every other decent/well-known rock act on there has been cut or jumped ship.

Wentz_Equals_Death (May 1, 2008)

kick ass bands

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

Based on his resume, I wonder if he offers make up tips as part of his role as a producer?

kneel (May 1, 2008)

hahaha

Grue (May 2, 2008)

kick ass-bands

LORDSHREDDER (May 1, 2008)

So essentially you're traveling to record with some dude who will make your album sound like a dull indie-rock record? Record yourselves with a home pro-tools setup. It will sound similar.

Wentz_Equals_Death (May 1, 2008)

not to mention the irony of some professional tools recording with pro-tools

Banal242 (May 1, 2008)

This band should emphasize the fact that some members left because of their Christian values.

IReviewMusic (May 1, 2008)

agree. i'd be a lot more likely to give them a chance if i knew they were scaring christians away.

MattRamone (May 1, 2008)

Scary kids scaring Christians.

Hey_ska (May 1, 2008)

Please, no.

wigginz (May 1, 2008)

Congratulations Mr. Ghost.

Knifetrader (May 1, 2008)

Never thought I'd say this, but:
Words can not express how much fuck this label!

Banger (May 1, 2008)

Anti- still puts out good stuff.

Biped_Casserole (May 1, 2008)

i am uninterested

thomas7155 (May 1, 2008)

kick ass bands like All Time Low, The Bled, Senses Fail, Circa Survive, Darkest Hour?

teeto (May 1, 2008)

I I dig their last record , kinda like dave vanian fronting new strung out, and I'll be forever grateful they lent their gear to strung out so I could see em in ottawa and montreal . Their image turns people off, but I think this and Pulley and BR and souls are epitaph's last bands that remind of the old epifat days.
