Good luck on your record deal. If you are 3 albums in you must be carrying some major debt with the label. A record deal is a pretty term for a loan. Good luck on bringing the pain with your VHT \m/

Imagine the deal with a new death metal band today. :no: Metal Blade does not pay you anything whatsoever if you are a new act. You will get a $2,000 LOAN for a 30 day tour. It is good for exposure and locked shows I guess but there is no guarantee anyone will show up to the shows depending on the demographics.

IMO you would be better off just making your own contacts and if your band is good you can get on the same shows anyway without having to pay money.

In most cases, a "death metal record deal" nowadays would be "we'll press XX copies of the record and send you 10-15% of the copies for you to sell yourself, bye."

Yeah, CD sales and Merch is all that you will make money from pretty much.

I'm sure each band has their own deal but that $2,000 loan I spoke of was factual data from some guys I talked to on the label that were in the exact situation. They also had a very good amount of buzz at the time as well.

I know a few guys personally from school and my hometown that are a fairly bigger DM band on Relapse and they said the same thing. You will get tour support and that's it. You are lucky if you get free food every day and that's on the venue.

Unless you're selling tons of records/downloads/merch then getting a "deal" is not all it is cracked up to be imo. To each their own. If you got it like that to where you can make it work than that it awesome and good for you but imo being homeless sucks.

There was a time (when I was young) that I would have killed for someone to give me a few grand to support my band going on tour. Hell yes, I would have done it in a heartbeat. Problem is...we get older. Not such a great proposition now.
 
I remember being young, angry and brootalz. Now I'm old, apathetical and heavy(literally).

Yeah fo sho. When I was younger with the band I was in we played our asses off and did alot of traveling. Would have loved to get paid to do it instead of paying for everything ourselves. Hard to recall but I think mid 20's is when I decided there was no way I was going to live like that. (Unless I was making BIG money which is not going to happen for me or for 80% of all metal bands)

Same, I really need to lose a few pounds and shave my ass cheeks but I must say buying new gear helps me have some interest again. In your case of apathy and knowing what you have gear wise, I really do not think there is a single piece of gear that would change you lol. You seriously have some the best shit. What else could you possibly get that makes you say YES!!!
 
Maddnotez....I'd love to have an uberschall. Only high gain head I haven't had that I really want to try.

Next time you're driving through St. Charles county MO let me know if you want to give it a whirl.
 
My bro Chris reminded me that we both had Madison prophecy heads. The best solid state brutalz ever.
