I believe in a thing called the record industry...
Funny how all of the bands that have the biggest marketing push behind them also leak onto the internet weeks before their record is available.
Not that I am one to download music, but I wanted to test a pub-inspired theory. I tried to download the latest Darkness album that isn't out for another 24 days and it is no where to be found on the internet. Yet weeks before their release you couldn't google the likes of Franz and Kanye without tripping over downloads and bit torrent hits.
It seems to me that in this file sharing era the true measure of a superstar band is how quickly their subsequent album is leaked onto the old internets.
Makes you wonder who is actually doing all of this pre-release uploading.
hmm....
