Dark Tranquillity är faktiskt det band som chockat Hervé Herbaut (founder of Osmose Productions) mest av alla, i en negativ bemärkelse. Läste den intervju med honom som
Bardo Methodology hade (2020-03-11).
Citat:
What’s the worst disappointment you’ve suffered?
– That would be Dark Tranquillity. Everything was going very fine with the band and we’d built great mutual trust but, suddenly, coming back from our summer holidays in 1998, we read that they’d signed to Century Media… with their “Projector” album, which had been paid for by Osmose! We trusted them so much we sent the studio money before they returned the contract. The guys took our money and recorded an album and then used it to sign with Century Media; we were shocked to see such an attitude. After months of negotiation, we let them go and were refunded the recording cost. Not cool, but we accepted it. This could’ve caused drama for the band’s career, but we decided against using it.
