Exclaim! Canada's Music Authority

Exclaim! Canada's Music Authority: "Enter World's Fair. The Dandys have worked out a deal to launch their own Beat the World label with the management group that handle poppy musical oddities the Flaming Lips and British Sea Power. In the arrangement, World's Fair will take a smaller cut of of the licensing deals that have been the band's bread and butter.

'We've been functioning on our own as a band for a long time,' Holmstrom says. 'With World's Fair, they can provide all the business stuff that we need without any of the nonsense of a major. It's great, although a little scary, because if we screw this up, we have no one to blame but ourselves.'

The band will have the chance to sink or swim on their own terms with the tentatively titled Earth to the Dandy Warhols, a new album expected to be released later this year."
