Victory entered a four-album deal with the band in 2003 when Hawthorne Heights was an unknown band playing small venues in the Ohio area. The band subsequently recorded two studio albums: "The Silence in Black and White," which sold more than 1 million copies through Victory's substantial financial investment and aggressive and savvy marketing efforts; and "If Only You Were Lonely," which sold about half as many. The band remains obligated to deliver two more albums to Victory within a "reasonable time" during the remainder of the contract term, according to a May 16, 2007 federal court ruling in a separate action filed by the band against Victory in the U.S. District Court in Illinois. Despite that ruling, the band has vowed that they will not record for Victory, the suit filed Monday says. It has been two years since the band delivered an album to Victory.
