Submitting Music to Us

If you have music that you would like to submit for review or a concert that you would like one of us to attend (in NYC, Mpls, LA, Chicago, Pheonix), please email us. We receive a lot of email so we can't respond to everyone and it may take us a while to get to your email. Please help us out by taking a good look at this blog and the types of music we post about before you send an email to see what kind of music we like (hint: we don't post much, if any, techno/electronica, for example). We don't spam you, so we would appreciate the same courtesy.

Here are some guidelines:
1. Don't make us go looking for things. Help us use our time wisely by giving us everything we need in one place:
~ Always include a LINK to download or stream your music (don't attach mp3s, that fills up our mailbox). FTPed links that end in .mp3 (that we can listen to without downloading first) are best.
~ Always include a link to your website AND/OR myspace
2. Please let us know in your initial email which (if any) of your songs you would like us to make available for download on your website so that we don't have to contact you and wait to hear back before we post anything.
3. Things we typically post about are tour announcements, album releases, sometimes music videos or interviews. We are probably not going to post about your appearance on Jimmy Kimmel or your album cover art.
