The Veronicas go solo after war with US label AFTER nearly a decade with one of the world's biggest music labels, pop sister duo The Veronicas have gone independent. Confidential can reveal The Veronicas' Jess and Lisa Origliasso have parted ways with Warner Bros Records in the United States. "Even though we are still in contractual obligations trying to get some music released from our prior record company ... we are not waiting on anyone, no one is dictating our choices, no one is telling us what we can and can't (do)," Jess told Confidential The duo signed to the label through local music executive Hayden Bell in 2004 and the successful partnership spawned huge hits locally and in the US, including Hook Me Up, Take Me On The Floor and 4Ever. They've won an ARIA Award and sold millions of albums here and in the US, where their hit Untouched peaked at number 17 in 2007. Jess and Lisa Origliasso of The Veronicas. Warner's Australian office was unable to comment yesterday but the singers said they did their best to keep their spirits up during the tough time. "We have musically been able to get free from our last record company finally after kind of being on lockdown for the past five years," said Jess, who will be taking part in McHappy Day on Saturday. Wanting to release music and them going through such drastic internal changes (and) that there was nobody there for us to actually work with made it very difficult. The relationship is believed to have broken down over creative and business differences and comes after a remarkable spray by the singers on their Facebook in October. "Despite our record label not allowing us to release music this year, we are still nominated in the top 50 for "Oz artist of the year" awards!" they wrote on the social media site.

Their third album, Life on Mars, was mysteriously shelved after being due out last October. They've worked on new tracks with Billy Corgan and Daniel Johns and are understood to have been extremely frustrated with the lack of label support. "We are just going to unleash everything we have been working on and pouring our heart and souls into over the last five years," said Lisa.
