Xiu Xiu, Fucked Up Sue Camel, Rolling Stone

Xiu Xiu and Fucked Up filed a class action lawsuit against Camel Cigarettes, Rolling Stone, and the two's parent companies. Pitchfork reports:

The suit-- filed December 17 on behalf of 186 artists whose names appeared in Rolling Stone's "Indie Rock Universe" feature, tucked conspicuously within a fold-out advertisement for Camel's indie-friendly "The Farm" campaign in the magazine's November 15 issue-- accuses the defending parties of "unauthorized use of artists' names; unauthorized use of artist names for commercial advantage (right of publicity); and unfair business practices."
