Promotion

[Tragicus]

Is it me or the new album from Anathema is receiving no promotion at all. I search the net on a daily basis and not one review, nor a glimpse of the artwork, no update on the official site, no samples, hell most sites even got the release date wrong...

By the way, the new Tiamat is great, going to buy it for sure. It will be released on the 27th of October. Check it out if you can.

No one seems to care anymoooooooooooooore



..There. Now it's out of the way.

This is so true!!!! Even on the MFN website there's not a word about the new album. Only if you click on "anathema" there's one sentence saying it will be released 20/10/03. But nothing in the headline or news section!!!

If it wasn't for this forum i would'nt know there was a new album coming out next month! So probably almost no-one knows it's coming out. That's really bad i guess!!! Boeh MFN BOOEEEHHHHHHHH!!!!

Don't be sad, it's very real .

 

[toolsofthetrade]

no, actually, the questionmarks above its heady arent visible.
i was confused.

Its not even mentioned on the Anathema site, just that their in the studio

 

[Allan]

It's all part of their dogme concept, no more than one update a year, spend that on the studio report. It's all about the music.

I reckon we make a petition and get 10000s of people to sign saying "Promote the new Anathema!"

or, erm everyone just buy it when it comes out eh?

at least in peaceville they made some videos

I saw a digipack from The Silent Enigma today, I was quite surprised. It's a remastered version released in 2003 by Peaceville and it has the orchestral version and Sleepless 96 on it. Does anyone know if the difference in sound is audible?

hey. stay cool! promos haven't been made and sent to press yet, so how can anyone write a review or sth? strangelight is right (if it's not irony), if each of us go to shop and buy it it will be enough 'promotion'.

 

[Bastet]

we're not THAT many though, are we?

 

[mehdi.i.e.e.e]

no but we're worth a lot.

 

[Falconspirit]

no but we're worth a lot.

Agreed!!!

No I was serious like. Whats the point in worrying about MFNs business? If people are concerned about Anathema then buy the CDs and that. Im sure there will be adverts in mags nearer the release date, its not as if the label will pay for an album to be recorded by an established band then try not to sell it eh? And if the band feel the label isnt doing enough to promote it then they can always get off their arse and help themselves, like us peasants have to do

so who said its like Air since noone's heard it?

I think the invisible, non-existant promotion had something to do with it
