>Subject: press release {cleveland fraud imposters, using sister morphine}*
>
>for immediate release;
>
>this is public notice to music fans and 80's glam rock fanatics.
>
>well pathetic and mediocre has reached new lows in our sorry state of a music industry.
>
>seems a few imposters in the cleveland area are pretending to be a band called sister morphine. anyone who has half a brain and can use google, can find documented information on the 80's band and it's established material and existence as well as the bands debut album which is still available online via cdbaby.
>
>sister morphine had one cd released on emerald city records. that disc is the from the "real" band. the band has a somewhat coloured past and has been defunct since the early 90's.
>
>for those of you who appreciate hard work, determination and the facts you'll be glad to know that the band in cleveland ohio is NOT sister morphine and you should not be fooled by the booking and shows using our artists name.
>
>let them know how lame and pathetic it is to steal another bands logos, concepts and ideas and try pushing them off as your own and it shows immaturity as well as malice and un-originality. the folks in cleveland are not doing anything but making themeselves look like pathetic losers. it's sad to see musicians these days can't even think of a name on their own and stealing the bands 'heroin rig' and nun, angel wings concept art is pretty cheesy and down right moronic.

>sister morphine is a recording artist on emerald city records of hollywood.

>copyright abuse {dmca} intellectual properties violations...
