I suppose we don’t know that much about how the music business operates in the U.K., but from what I’ve heard, it’s a pretty big deal. Chad Gilbert Read Quote
I know a lot of people feel pressure with their major label sophomore CD and having to follow up their first record real good. Well, we didn’t have that pressure, because we have a real loyal fanbase, not a fanbase because we’re on the radio, know what I mean? Chad Gilbert Read Quote

There are parts in albums where I wrote a lot of the lyrics. There are parts on albums where Steve wrote a lot of the lyrics, even albums where Steve did the majority of the lyric writing. Then there were albums like ‘Coming Home’ where I did most of the chorus lyric writing. But it was always split. Chad Gilbert Read Quote
If we meet some people that are in love with NFG that are a major label, then we’ll sign with them. If we meet people that are in love with NFG that are an independent label – and they have a plan – well, then we’ll sign to them. It’s completely up to us. Chad Gilbert Read Quote
We walk around Warped Tour all the time and I swear to you, kids are like, ‘Hey, that looks like the guy from New Found Glory.’ Chad Gilbert Read Quote
I read comments where our fans say Geffen screwed up ‘Coming Home,’ they screwed New Found Glory, but that’s not really true. Maybe Geffen didn’t have the right tools or whatever to get it to the kids, and internally, there were a bunch of changes going on at the label when our record came out, so I don’t know if it’s anyone’s fault.
