Free NYC Sucks Metal Compilations Coming
. Here is the official word with more details: NYC's metal scene is literally exploding at the seams. There are so many great local bands playing shows on a regular basis that on any given night you've got to make some pretty hard choices about where to get your headbang on. We try and highlight some of our favorite local bands on MetalSucks from time to time, but frankly it's just not possible to keep up; seemingly every month there's another fantastic band that's as good or better than any number of "signed" acts from around the U.S. or the world, only they're not that well-known outside of our city's borders. That's something we hope to change with our brand new compilation, NYC Sucks. Volume 1, containing 14 songs by as many bands, will be released on January 18th, and Volume 2, containing 13, will be released on February 22nd. We've included a few smaller signed bands that we feel are an integral part of the scene, but for the most part all the acts on these compilations are not signed. Both compilations will be available for download right here on MetalSucks, will contain high-quality 320kbps MP3s, and will include a PDF of digital liner notes with information about all the bands. And because the whole point of this thing is to spread the word of all the great bands we have around here, both volumes will be available completely for free. Send 'em to your friends, put them up on torrent sites, submit them to .rar Mediafire blogs� just spread the friggin' music by any means necessary. Volume 1: (Jan 18) Volume 2: (Feb 22)
