THEY NEED TO SELL A LOT OF HOODIES WITH GIANT LETTERS TO PAY THAT BACK


Fed up with working their asses off never seeing a dime from Eulogy Records (according to the band, of course) the manager of Set Your Goals has bought out the band's contract.

The price: Over $100,000.

Singer Matt Wilson commented on the situation saying: "The truth is we have many options for our next record and self-releasing is one of the best and a very likely option. This has been discussed within our band and management since the buyout was first brought up. Yes, that's right, our manager is personally offering to buy us out because he has that much faith in our band. There's no promise from a label (though many labels have since caught wind of this and gained interest) and no contract being written up with anyone else waiting to buy us."

I liked the first SYG EP and the full-length is okay, but nothing spectacular. The bottom line is that I just don't know if this band is worth that much. Then again, I don't have a hundred grand to throw on a chance, so what the fuck do I know?
