Just because they do more, doesn´t mean they do enough.

I think the fact that it isn’t being released by Spitfire in the U.S. and Canada is answer enough.

I don’t know the first thing about Spitfire and what kind of label they are.However, the fact that Therapy? seem happy that there are people within the company who they get along with and who ‘get’what Therapy? are and are trying to do is probably enough to put them head and shoulders above most companies the guys have had to deal with. Whilst it is a shame that, for all the great music and life-affirming gigs out there, the music industry still relies on money, don’t forget that Spitfire need to ensure that they make money on Therapy? - or at least break even. If they put out loads of ads in the press/ TV and plug the record like mad, it costs a fortune - and how many extra copies of the record do we expect this to sell, if we are honest with ourselves? It has to be a huge increase to sustain a long-term high profile - or else it kills the band and the label and NO ONE gets to hear the next record.
Even getting songs played on radio/TV must cost money - there must be plenty of back-scratching going on (where do you think the term “spin doctor” originated ?!?)
I do not work in the music industry, so I’m not a music biz type whingeing, I’m just saying - BE REALISTIC!
