free songs everywhere

It seems as though a lot of bands are realising that providing your first single off a new album for free un-DRM’d download is a very good way to generate hype and get people interested in your album.

Good stuff I say.

Kutless have joined the fray and are offering their new song for download here. WIll have to listen to it later on today, but looking forward to hearing it.

Further on the excited musical ventures that are in the wings to be released in the next few months - I forgot that Relient K also have two albums slated for release during June or July! Matt Thiessen has blogged that the new songs will all be mixed by now. He refers to it as the Christmas Eve syndrome… so I’m guessing they’ve left it to the last minute… perhaps suggesting that the album is only a few weeks away. That would be fun!
