Among the band's complaints are long meetings, arguments about branding, attempts to retrain Brickhouse's voice and the requirement to sell more than 250,000 copies of the album before the second of five payments come from the label.

Alec Atkins says: "It was pretty difficult at times. A particular lady at the label was just talking at us for six hours. We were pretty restless and wanted to get up and do something else - but had us in this meeting for six hours."
