Our focus is music.

We think that music is the purest form of art, because it can hit you directly, without any rationalization. We think of music not as an industry but as a form of art and culture, that therefore must be free for everyone (then, if a musician's worthy, one should support him, not his label).
We want to spread the word about bands and musicians that see music as an art more than a chore. People that try to innovate or that simply put their heart in what they do.

First of all, we suggest our followers to sign in to last.fm to find out more bands similar to the ones they already listen to.
Here're ours:
Angel Tear (Aka Dark-Blaze)
Aleps
Kain
James

Kustin

Second point: we don't think of genre categorization as an absolute. It's useful (and we use it) to give an idea, but, especially if the music is not one-sided and monodirectional, as good music should be, it's just an approximation and it's not meant to represent the whole of somebody's artistic production. For the same reason, we think that it's stupid to hate a whole genre a priori, but we believe that every artist worth of this name works his own way and should be judged individually.

Third, if anyone has a band or a musician that he wants us to create a link about, just contact us through the /ask or the /request page.

“Meanwhile, media conglomerate, studios and record companies have expressed their support for the legislation [SOPA/PIPA], thus revealing the ever-growing gap between entertainment and internet industries.”

Just a friendly reminder: Support indie artists, download the artists who want to condemn music downloading and reward those who share their music for free, or invite you to do so; with donations, support, by buying their merchandise or going to their concerts. Most importantly, support platforms for emerging artists like Bandcamp (You may want to read the “surprising” data gathered by Bandcamp in this post), and always think about who will get your money when you buy an album or anything else, for that matter: you really vote not during political elections, but when you shop every single day. Remember that concerts and merchandising usually bring much more revenue to the actual artists than their albums.
