WEB SHERIFF?! porqué no te vas a la concha de tu madre!!!!!!
bulshit people - make concerts and give fans a free mp3 s or flac to go on this concerts...stop with this cds
make it only for people who want to own the world..
MUSIC is not bussiness!
he removed it cos the algum is wack imo
i meant album
Sonic Youth approves of RIAA
Aw please, at least Matador/SY were polite and not dicks about it. They didn't threaten anyone with a lawsuit or send a nasty, mean spirited letter. I bet the reason that this blog was targeted was because someone at Matador is a fan of the blog. Wait until the street date of the album, repost it, and I bet they will not bother you a bit.
RSS is a great thing
RSS is a great thing
i agree with the other anonymous... but seriously if the label or band says please take it down, then it's only right to comply. I have a small label and most of the time I don't mind if my obscure or OOP releases are on blogs but now and then when I release a new CD and it appears on a blog I ask the owner to take it down or put up some sample tracks and tey usually comply. If the repost it in 6 months then I don't bother. at least let me sell enough copies to make a small enough profit in order to pay royalties to the band!!!
ok - thanks and GREAT blog!
the Throbbing Gristle post was removed completely, so this one is ok. both albums suck tho
