Yeah, and I dont really blame him. Tooth and Nail basically put everything into MXPX, but in the end was still the biggest thing holding them back. The Way of the Buffalo lyrics describe a pretty strained relationship with them, the touring situation seemed perpetually awkward, and the scandalous near-demise of Tooth and Nail years later after getting involved in a self-help book scam... not something he likely wants to get into.

Tooth & Nail + Solid State were almost as influential to my music taste as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. I usually tell people that the vast majority of my music taste came from the latter, but actually it's like a 60/30/10 split between THPS/T&N/what I heard on the radio, respectively. Tooth and Nail helped me discover Anberlin, Emery, Fair (Aaron Sprinkle's band after Poor Old Lu), Demon Hunter, Norma Jean, He Is Legend, and Underoath. Beyond that, their samplers made great counterparts to the Warped Tour samplers I'd pick up on the punk side. The weird thing about this whole thing is, Tony Hawk primed me to start looking for music on the soundtracks of extreme sports games like Matt Hoffman, and it was because of THAT that I discovered MxPx (specifically, "Play It Loud" was on the soundtrack of SSX3). It was only later that I discovered they were on Tooth & Nail.

They had a huge falling out with Tooth & Nail after Life in General. Mike found out they had been screwed over in the contract and Brandon Ebel essentially stole his music. That's what the song "What's Mine Is Yours" was written about , and that's why some later albums were released under the label "What's Mine Is Mine." T&N released Let It Happen as a cash grab when they lost MxPx. It was just a compilation of tracks that hadn't been widely released. This is also why they went back to Tooth & Nail for Secret Weapon. In exchange for one more record, Tooth & Nail gave Mike the rights to his songs, but not the recordings. This is why they rerecorded Life in General. They pulled a Taylor Swift before Taylor Swift did, except it never really caught on because the original recording was so much better. Presumably, part of the contact is that they're not allowed to talk about Tooth & Nail publicly. Anyway, Brandon Ebel is a piece of crap.

Coming from a Christian home, their cds were sold in the church store. Parents didn’t like secular music but this was ok for us kids to listen to. When the internet came about Mxpx would do online chats with fans. They did infact mentioned once tho that they were just “Christians” in a band and not an actual Christian band. Many songs have actual Bible verse quotes, and Mike sings about struggling to be a good person and turning to God. I guess being a Christian or even considered a Christian band is unpopular in the music industry. I feel like they try to distance themself in a clean way without being negative to their faith. They have always been super PG rated, even today they are still very clean PG rated.

Everyone who is like "oh, you knew that T&N Records was a Christian label...blah blah blah..." You do realize that MXPX was signed very early on with the label. The label started in 1993 and MXPX played a showcase for them in...1993. Again, pre-internet days, it isn't outside the realm of possibility that some kids in small-town WA didn't know much about this label that had just started in California. And there are plenty of podcasts where Mike addresses his religious views. Not every interview has to be about that. Especially one on a channel that isn't about spirituality. Most of us have gotten over that MXPX isn't a "Christian band" anymore and a lot of us got over Christianity too.

Okay, so how do you never know they were primarily a Christian label who had secular acts? Especially when you re-sign with the label? Stupidity? Was MXPX never a christian band? That's the one drawback of signing to them was that for the people who knew, bands would automatically be stereotyped, which is market death for a lot of bands teetering on the fringes of quality. Was T&N not upfront about what they were when signing new bands? If not, that's very dishonest.

if tooth and nail didn't make mxpx a christian band, then maybe playing at churches and having bible verses in their lyrics picks up a bit of the slack.
