L7 to PledgeMusic: See You in Court l7officialhq
and the status of “Scatter the Rats,” the album that was left in the lurch by the company’s collapse. The album was released in May on Joan Jett’s label, Blackheart Records, but those who pre-ordered it via PledgeMusic have yet to receive their copies; the group also dropped a video for “Holding Pattern,” a song from the album, and announced a guitar giveaway as part of the album’s forthcoming pre-order fulfillment campaign.
“As bad as it is, the band nonetheless has made the financial decision to honor our fans who pre-ordered the album through Pledge Music, and which they have yet to receive. Thanks to Joan Jett and Blackheart Records, L7 was able to manufacture and ship what would have been utterly impossible without their support. Pledge Music has held over $20,000 in shipping costs alone that we have no access to and will likely never see. However, L7 has made the financial commitment to honor these mailings.
In addition to mailing the records to backers, L7 has announced a special “Willy Wonka” style giveaway: Assisted by Blackheart Records and Gibson Guitars, one backer will find a golden ticket in their envelope, which means they will receive a Gibson Flying V guitar, signed by L7 guitarist Donita Sparks and played onstage during the ‘Scatter the Rats’ tour.
