Today comes an interesting story from a band out of New York, I dont think thier sound is that different really, but the approach is. Have a look at what they have to say when promoting the album.
We want
this album release to demonstrate that computers (as a
recording tool) and the internet (for delivery and
promotion) can be tools that allow amateurs to make
music that matters, and get it to the hands of
listeners, all without the pressure of financial
expectations. In a sense, to test the technology as a
populist tool.
I always enjoy an approach like that, I can appreciate the passion. Plus they are offering their entire album for download.
