Crowdfunding Your Album Yay or Nay?

[Dickarms]

i think its been discussed before, but i saw some recent examples. some quite honest about declaring what the funds were going to go to (pretty packaging and promo material).

is this a great way for indie bands to get shit done for the people who already care?

or is this panhandling or the lowest sort?

I vote no. sounds like something Duncan would do or probably has already done.

for the record, this came from looking up that casualties of cool band from the devin thread. someone who is already established is doing it too.

I give 0 shits one way or the other about crowd funding



If your getting the album out of it, I don't see any issue... essentially just getting a pre order and helping stick it to the man

I think this is how I feel too - it really just seems like a pre-order.
