Yes.
You are aware that Bacardi have even got their claws into this one & now own both the name, recipe & rights for US distribution.

Testicle Hairstyle
Yes, probably.

mc5 letting thier tunes be used by levi, bob dylan signing to starbucks were both far worse then groove armada signing to bacardi.
Those two at least feigned an anti-corperate message. Most people know who groove armada are through the bloody megane advert.(and one before probabley)

When has Dylan said anything anti-corporate?

Yup, Pernod's lawyers are having a field day with this one but the US boycott means they are pretty-much fucked whatever the decision.

Yup, this is a fairly recent thing as originally Bacardi, whilst maybe not being pro-Castro, were certainly anti-Batista.

Feh, none of this really bothers me. As long as they keep making the music they like they can be sponcered by anyone, who really cares?
I think the white stripes should have done the million quid gap ad. Would it have made them any worse? No . As long as a band does a deal on there own terms then why not? Its getting harder for bands to make money these days I think.
I write tv and ad music to make money, does that make me a sell out?
PS I quite like that song with Munta and GA

They'd be a sell out anyway if they signed back with their old label Columbia (owned by Sony BMG) so what difference does it make?
They're just chosing not to go down the route of a 5 album deal (optioned) with promotional commitments and delivery subjected to the label's say-so. I'd have done the same thing actually.

You're ignoring the issue of WHO they've signed with

No worse than bands signing up to do a myspace.com tour or starbucks album or fucking coke sponsored festival/gig or some other shite IMHO.

Expect a shitload more of it in the future. Corporates will pay more than record companies, simple as that.

As long as this doesn't result in me having to listen to anything by Groove Armada I don't really care.

Just a minor fan of various singles of theirs but they really rocked it in Glasgow last night.
