In the announcement, the band revealed that they would be releasing their debut full-length record on the label, for distribution in retail stores nationwide. Plus, they'll head out on tour this Spring with fellow Atlantic acts 3OH!3, Cobra Starship and Travis McCoy.
As pointed out in a post on the announcement by Chicagoist's Tankboy, signing to a major often winds up becoming more of a curse than a blessing. But in the right circumstances it could lead to a great deal of opportunities that would otherwise be unreachable, and I Fight Dragons noted that they will be holding onto "huge amounts of creative control," so we'll assume only the best. After all, there are undeniable limitations that come along with a total DIY approach, and nobody should fault a band for wanting some help with getting music into people's ears (and hopefully getting some monetary reward for their art). We wish the best of luck and congratulations to the band, and look forward to hearing the LP!
