what languages should you promote your band in?

In case it is Epic Power Metal, you can also add Elfic.

Anyway, english is the way to go, imo. Spoken and understood throughout Europe and the rest of the world (right?), what more could you need?

Engrish, do eet nao!

Just use English, Spanish and German, if you want to have 3 languages. If you are really looking for 4 I'd add French. The rest of the languages are minorities. If I had a site I would have it in all the languages I can speak, though, but that's just because I like languages.

Otherwise I think that people in "our genre" dig deeper, anyway.
So, if theyre interested in your music and your promo text is in english, it should'nt make a difference.

English, Spanish and Japanese. The japanese music market is very big (and they SUCK at english), don't underestimate it!

This for sure

ok, i'm convinced... its english and elven. everyone else can kiss my ass! now i just have to contact my old friend who's a 7th class druid lord and can translate my newsletters into runes. keep an eye out for me, i'll be taking over the world soon. at least in his D&D kingdom!

but seriously... japanese is a great idea that i totally forgot about. of course, its not one of the romantic languages that i actually had contacts to translate for. dammit! but i agree with you, the japanese market is very lucrative, something i need to reconsider. but its nice to know that i wont have to spend time/energy/money getting things translated into multiple languages for now.
