Doing things the hard way (because there ain't no easy way)

Greetings and salutations, friends. Sometimes my world is surreal: I'm sitting here listening to Spongebob cover "Don't Stop Believin'" - which After Alms also covers - and submitting our new release to music blog after music blog, hoping to catch a break and maybe even generate some buzz. I mean, you can get your buzz in a bottle or at the end of a cigarette (the funny kind especially) but the buzz we want and need is grassroots kinda stuff. You know, where you tell a friend about this great little band you heard online. Or maybe even saw live, and if you did bless you (and keep doing it).

So, music blogs. If you're reading this, you're probably a music fan, so I think it would be worthwhile to mention a few sites to whom we've submitted our release to. Support them too, and help us generate that buzz. Tell your friends to go to our website or our ReverbNation profile and download some free songs. SHARE THEM. Send them to people and tell them to take a listen... or link them back to the page, because that helps with the BUZZ. This is how people find out these days; they read a blog that might only have 500 readers, but those the people tell their friends, and we'd bet their friends would rock Superstone too.

Now if you'll excuse me, there's no rest for the wicked and there are a lot of music blogs that I need to send our stuff to. Let me share some of the ones I've already hit up in the hopes that you will go to their site and demand that they review Superstone.Don't forget to sign up for free text alerts and our mailing list. We'll never spam you. Thank you... you make it all possible.
