the only thing that would make me think twice about signing to a major label would be how many albums they wanted cos that can really screw you over when you just start making albums just so you can get away from the label. but bands have to grow start with the indies and then if you are fortunate to be that good then it would be a crime not to be bigger and let more people out there here your greatness theres nothing wrong with bands signing on to majors and folk who are shouting 'sell outs' were never true fans in the first place.
