Actual question: Why are we getting a lot of motw-related attn all of a sudden?

[FuSoYa]

We haven't had a CD come out since August 2001, but ever since I guess the beginning of January we have been getting at least one email or letter every week regarding motW. When the album came out, we got some stuff for a month and then it dwindled. But that had an album's release as its reason. So wtf? Why all of a sudden? Our label got a new distributor recently but that distributor hasn't picked up a single motw release- all they got so far was the latest Novembers Doom.

So, seriously, wtf?

Internerdz!!

On the serious tip, Opeth board folk praise you guys all the time. Even now there is a "maudlin of the Well" thread going.

maudlin of the Well
What's your favorite moments from their last 3 albums?
I wanted to post this topic on maudlin of the Well board but since I can't, I post it here

haha, awesome, the Opeth board is more on-topic motW than the motW board!

Cool! But.. we have been internerding it for almost a year (since last summer).. so the January surge doesn't seem to have been a result of that.

I think it's because you're becoming more popular in general doodz..

 

[FuSoYa]

russell, but what confuses me is that there was a surge in the past couple months seemingly due to... nothing! No articles as far as I know, no releases, no videos, etc etc

[xfer]

they're going to wonder where we all got our snazzy custom avatars.

 

[xfer]

and why so many of us insist we are NOT GAY in them.

 

[Baliset]

i think it adds some class to my post

 

[deadair]

[avi]
