Va, užtikau gan idomių dalykų viename interviu su amerikonų thrashystais RIGOR MORTIS - grupė visai neprasta ir žinoma thrash undergroude, bet, aišku, ne iš elitarinio "žvaigždžių klubo"..nustebino grupės narių pasakojimas apie jų buvimą po žinomos "Capitol" firmos sparnu..išlaidos albumo įrašymui - tikrai įspūdingos - 100 000 baksų..

<<<Could you tell us what Capitol exactly did for you during the time you've been with them? I mean, have you gotten lots of advertisements and Interviews or were you able to go on tour at the time?!
"Well, they did some at first... We did one tour in the States with DEATH ANGEL and they gave us a lot of money! Basically for a band that comes out of nowhere, that did one demotape, 500 copies... we had no idea what the music business was all about as far as the reality of it, you know. We just played. They gave us a deal for $100.000 for our first record and we thought we were unstoppable now! But unfortunately we really didn't know much about the business and we didn't have a manager at the time and so they kinda helped us spending it. It was ok. They hired Dave Ogilvie, who now works with Trent Reznor (NINE INCH NAILS). They got him to produce our record and we did the record in a really expensive studio and spent a lot of money there. I wished we would've known more and we would've spent less... They bought us all new equipment and took pretty good care of us as long as Rachel was there. But Rachel left about a year after we got the deal. Right around the time we were almost ready to do a second record, but they basically just dropped our project. To do the second record, we literally had to get our lawyer to call Capitol and say "Either we record the record or you release the band; so they can go on and record." And they were like, "Well... okay... I'll tell you what we'll do, you'll record it, but we'll release it on Metal Blade Records..." So, that's what happened. We recorded the second record in California with Bill Metoyer and it came out pretty good, but they really didn't promote that at all and that's actually the hardest one to find, because they really didn't do much promotion." >>>
Tai liudija, kokie pinigai sukosi USA thrash metal užkulisiuose, jei net niekam dar nežinomai grupelei buvo skiriamas toks dėmesys..o tai , galbūt ir buvo esminis pagrindas, kodėl būten USA komandos ir sudarė visokius "Big 4" ir pan..
