Smash or Trash?!

March proves to be a busy month for artists on the Fanatic Promotion roster. Five forthcoming March releases were delivered via a disgruntled postal worker (I’ve met my mailman, he’s a nice chap…please play along) this week. I might as well get a post up to plug each of them before the cat starts chewing on the jewel cases and dragging them off to strange places only to find them resurface months after the release date.

Earlier this week, Sean made an effort to clean his counter and share a few songs with you. I was a bit disappointed to see thousands visit the site and grab the mp3s, but nobody had the decency to let him know if they liked any of the crop (not to be confused with crap) he shared. I hope this post doesn’t suffer a similar fate.

Check these bands out and let me know if you’d like to hear more from any particular artist…if I don’t get 5 nods for a particular artist, this entire lot of CDs will be swept up with the kitty litter on the laundry room floor and disposed of properly!

From the Stateside release (March 17) of their critically acclaimed album The Fall of Math:
Download: 65daysofstatic - “Retreat! Retreat!”

From their March 11 Sugarspun Records release Ctrl-Alt-Del:
Download: The Diggs - “Careen”

Zen Mode will hit store shelves on March 11:
Download: O! The Joy - “Under The Radar”

More Deeper will be available domestically via Heartbreak Records on March 4:
Download: Vincent Black Shadow - “Shamanix”

Last, but definitely not least…Believe The Thieves will come out on March 11:
Download: We Were The States - “Up Your Sleeve”
