rc you have got to help me find a record label

[einride]

there are some complications associated with being knee deep in the "metal scene" for twelve years or whatever and then suddenly being in a band that's not really metal: namely, i have no idea where to send the tfs demo

http://www.myspace.com/theforeverseason

any ideas as to what kind of labels (or magazines, etc.) could possibly be interested in hearing this sort of thing

 

[Demilich]

I'll be the first to say I have no goddamn idea

 

[dill_the_devil]

Not a clue, but I like the sound of the band! Some good stuff right there.

 

[lurch70]

this is damn good stuff ...

TER, Code666 all go for this kind of stuff nowadays.

 

[swizzlenuts]

The second time listening to TFS and it's 100 times better than the new Katatonia.

 

[Ellestin]

it's better than Bathory, even.

no ambition off your guts dude, aim for the majors!

 

[Tide In Mind Out]

No idea about a record label either, but yeah that is good stuff. Well done!

 

[Dick Sirloin]

How about Mute Records? They release a lot of this kind of stuff, including the AMAZING band M83.

Also maybe try Factory Records or Rough Trade.... But I think most of these have been bought out by bigger labels.

For the hell of it....



Don't watch the video itself, it's gay.



EDIT: another....

okay this is like slowdive but with techno instead of guitars

and i don't really see the relation to tfs but thanx for the suggestions though man


edit: also this sounds like donkey kong country 2 (no really)

Hey erik, fuck you, i didn't like TFS at first but I kept trying and now its starting to grow on me!

maybe you should order a demo so you can hear the rest of the songs and hear it all in glorious hi-fi linear 16-bit stereo instead of whatever crippled bullshit myspace has decided is good enough

i'll send it for like whatever shipping is to wherever you are

 

[NAD]

You still owe me Nasheim vinyl. Send with demo please thanks. Whoa, that's you on vocals?

I have no idea how to find labels. I found 20 places to send my noishit to last year, spent a bunch of money, and got mostly ignored. One dude liked it but said "I don't have any money" which means "I don't really like it."

 

[grisvald]

i promised some dude here to send him a demo, got 1 left if you (dude) still wants it!

 

[Dick Sirloin]

This thread just blew my mind on so many levels......

Erik: the music on the lava levels was the best

 

[cthulufhtagn]

donkey kong country and its sequels ruled in so many ways

 

[lurch70]

who knew that Erik's calling was to be in a Coldplay type of band?!?!

fame, poonani and an endless supply of knit sweaters await

heres the deal... you get mike to send my stuff some day and throw in a copy and i'll send you money when its in my hands

otherwise, fuck that, i'm not sending either of you a penny ever again

 

[einride]

actually the mine levels had by far the best music
