As the year winds down, I would like to thank everyone for stopping by and reading. This has been the most successful year for Heavy Planet as we saw a new site design, tons of great "New Band To Burn One To" band submissions, a few new contributors, Heavy Planet is finally on Facebook, and a collaboration with The Soda Shop. I would like to finish off the year with my Top 20 albums of 2010 which will begin tomorrow and end on Friday. Five albums will be featured each day.
In 2011, we will continue to accept submissions for our extremely popular "New Band To Burn One To" feature. So if you want your band to be heard, submit it here now! Also in the works is a possible collaboration with The Soda Shop on a monthly podcast/radio show to feature unsigned bands. This may also be the year that a Heavy Planet compilation CD comes out. We shall see. Also, a blog I started called "Promote Your Band" is in it's infancy stage right now, so hopefully you'll stop by and check it out for some great articles on how to promote and market your band.
Special thanks goes out to Toby, The Klepto, Zac, Bill and Jake (The Soda Shop) and these fine websites Captain Beyond Zen, The Obelisk, Sludge Swamp, PlanetFuzz, Doommantia and any other Stoner/Doom related sites dedicated to keeping Stoner/Doom/Sludge/Psych music alive and well. Unfortunately, we saw the demise of StonerRock.com. But along with the above mentioned sites we will strive to bring you all the information that you need.
Here is to a successful 2011!
Doom on fellow \m/usic fans!

I had no clue you were doing a Promote Your Band site. I've added it to our links. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and here's to working with you in the next year and beyond! 2010 treated us well, and 2011 is ours for the taking.
