Billboard reports: *The Dandy Warhols have partnered with World’s Fair Group to launch their own label, Beat The World. A new album is expected out this year. The group was previously signed to Capitol, on which it released four studio albums. At first, The Dandys landed significant sync licenses for songs like “We Used To Be Friends” and “Boys Better,” and their Capitol debut, 1997’s The Dandy Warhols Come Down, has sold 103,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan; 2000 follow-up Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia has moved 164,000. But the streak was about to go south. “We started to get really frustrated with Capitol,” says guitarist Peter Holmstrom. “Our records were recouping and making money for them because of all the licensing, but they weren’t promoting us or paying attention.” After its last album, 2005’s Odditorium Or The Warlords Of Mars, moved only 38,000 units, Capitol dropped the band. “We were upset for about a week, and then we were overjoyed,” Holmstrom says. A call to a Capitol rep for comment was not returned at press time.*
Waiting... One of the things that gets under my skin is having to wait for a music download to finish. I usually end up playing something silly, like online bingo or some other flash game, while I'm trying to kill some time. It's an easy way to kill 10 minutes while waiting.
