It’s the music biz. Before its all said and done, they’ll owe Sony twice that.

Sounds like they were dazzled by $1.7 million. Unless they get royalties for the next 6 albums that really isn’t very much money. If they hit the concert circuit that should be where they make the money. Hopefully they get a good manager and keep their lives straight.

As Pink Floyd mused “Welcome to the machine.”

What’s amazing is that they’re black kids which is pretty rare. Its very rare that its all black kids in a conservative leaning genre.

What were you doing when you were thirteen?

Dino, Desi and Billy had a couple of Top 40 hits.

They’re going to need a lead guitarist.

They’re pretty good. I’ll send this to Alfonzo Rachel and see what he says about them. He has a metal band, too.

This is like a class project and if the singer wasn’t an 11 year old girl, they could pass for Tool.

Pretty good for 13 year olds.

The lead guitarist needs to switch to dreds because the afro doesn't work with thrash metal.

Good for them at their age, and they are very good at what they do. However, and it may just be because I’m not into Heavy Metal much, all their songs sound the same (I checked out some of their other videos on YouTube) and without singing, ends up sounding like noise.

It could just be me...

Just in time for their voices to start changing.

The record company will tell them it will cost $5 million to produce all the albums so they’ve deducted the $1.7 million mentioned in the contract and they’ll say the band owes the record company $3 million+. Then they’ll get the band to sign away the rights to their songs to pay back the record company. They’re too young to tour full time, which is the only way to really make money, so basically they’re up that infamous creek without a paddle.

1.7 for 6 albums?? 6 albums?? And probably didn’t retain any publishing or merchandise points.
Gonna wish they never did by album 2 ESPECIALLY if they’re still in the red at that point.
I’ll wager they’ll owe Sony before the first tour.
Top half mil will be sunk in the studio.
Gotta have a good entertainment attorney
