Alex Dunlap, bass player for Alpha Rev, mailed us this important update about the Hollywood Records matter:

"Thanks for writing the article about our group, Alpha Rev - and for urging fans to help us out. 

Since sending the mailer, we have received an outpouring of support; thanks to fans and the reach of outlets such as yours- now Hollywood records has agreed to license back our unreleased material. And for that, we give our most sincere thanks for everyone's part in this. We are truly humbled. 

In exchange, we have in good faith let senior officials at Hollywood know that we will be making our best efforts to curb fan outreach to Any senior members of Hollywood records regarding this matter.

We do have extremely high hopes for this material, and are obviously concerned about Distractions on Disneys side that could be counterproductive to this newly opened line of communication."

We're extremely happy in reading this, and wish Alex and his bandmates all the best. People have the power!
