Thursday, February 14, 2002 :::
word from a reliable source on what happened/is to happen with Stabbing Westward (for those who care):
Heya,
The guys decided that they needed to move on from SW.
That is all the explaination given. They do plan on
working on other musical projects, but I do not know
what projects at this time (not sure if they even
know). As for the songs they were working on, they
will go with the person who wrote it (Chris or Andy)
for use in future projects. As soon as I find out
future projects, it will be posted on the site.
In my opinion I think they were frustrated with how SW
has gone over. Their first 3 albums did only OK, so
they changed styles. The latest album was somewhat of
a flop, but I think it is because of poor marketing by
KOCH. KOCH marketed it to hard rock stations, but the
album wasn't had rock for the most part. Especially
the second single 'Angel'. There was no way a hard
rock station would touch that love song, but that was
all it was marketed to. I think the self titled album
would have done well if marketed more broadly and to
altertaive/rock/top 40 stations. To be honest, I think
SW's older, harder material would do well in todays
market compared to when it was released. SW was ahead
of the game.
Out.
