POD sue label
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 4 April 2011
Christian rockers POD are suing their record label, US independent INO Records, over claims that the indie is in breach of contract for refusing to pay a $400,000 advance once the band confirmed they were ready to start recording a new album last November.
The band say the advance was due once work began on the follow up to 2008’s ‘When Angels & Serpents Dance’, which was their first long player for the indie after leaving former label Atlantic in 2007. It’s not clear why INO Records did not cough up the cash, but POD’s legal claim is seeking the money, while stating that, because of the breach, the band is “abandoning all its obligations to INO under the agreement”.
INO Records are yet to respond.
