Strangelight said:Trying to build? Anathema are hardly underground anymore, Im sure the sales figures would tell you that, as well as the turnout at gigs. I guess you're bypassing the basics here cos I can't understand what you're getting at really. The story is - a lot of people want to buy Anathema stuff = it can be sold, one way or another. The band is in a good position now, I dunno why people think the MFN collapse is bad news, its fucking great news for them. Regarding the DVD, well now all the label politics that you lot were all moaning about months ago (not being able to put the old songs on the DVD) count for fuck all now cos its up to the band now. Thats a good thing surely? Redoing a DVD, pressing it, and sending it out to companies/stores doesnt take rocket science either.
alright, i think i underestimated the numbers of supporters for Anathema then.
How do you successfully sell your independent album, not compromising on your status quo?
