Remember that time Fall Out Boy and Gatsbys American Dream almost joined that label. Those were the days. DTR was a great label despite how awful the owners could be
I probably bought every CD they released from 2000-2002. Other than "The Resignation," I didn't care most of their releases after 2002.
Would anyone be interested in going in on pressing a custom “best of drive thru” vinyl with me??? SIDE A: midtown - get it together the starting line - the best of me new found glory - hit or miss the movielife - hand grenade senses fail - bloody romance home grown - you're not alone SIDE B: allister - somewhere on fullerton the early november - i want to hear you sad fenix tx - all my fault finch - letters to you something corporate - konstantine
What was the deal with Drive Thru & Geffen records, and why did it end up screwing the likes of TSL, Finch, NFG, etc? I remember TSL mentioned it in their Somebody's Gonnna Miss Us DVD.
I always heard the strangest things about this label. A friend of mine met with the owners who I think were a husband and wife(?). They had them lie on their backs and gave them massages while they pitched why they should sign with them. lol
Putting the very bizarre antics behind of the owners, Drive Thru was such a top tier label in its prime. So many scene classics came out in the early 00’s from them that were very important to me growing up. Shame what happened to the label in the end.
