WOW!!!! Awesome news!!
Can't really understand why so many bands do not cooperate to get a release done. Same with Hammerwitch
I've been talking with Randy in regards of CYPERUS since 2007. He just seems to have his priorities elsewhere and responds to me every 3-4 months letting me know he is still very interested but [insert any excuse here] and he will write to me soon yadda-yadda... Only two months ago he finally managed to give me his address so I can send him a contract, and it was only after I told him it is his last chance as I'm tired of waiting.
So that's how it goes. I'm not holding my breath over this. If Randy follows through and sends me the stuff, there will be a release, if not - I'll release something else. There are plenty of other bands which may not be so good, but more approachable and interested in working with me.
Regarding HAMMERWITCH, you need to understand that bands which have been successfully selling homemade CDRs of their old stuff for $15 a pop and seen their EPs sold on eBay for $300+ are not going to be interested in working with overseas barter labels or even domestic cash paying labels like me, Sentinel Steel or Shadow Kingdom to name a few which can only offer $1000-2000 upfront for making such limited releases.
Besides, if someone is going to re-release Hammerwitch it would be either John Perez (Brainticket) or Scott from TMU as those guys are within that scene and know all band members personally.
