Report 3: up and coming/unsigned band myspace



Swarmed is actually one of my best friends band. They are a heavy metal band they haven't recorded any songs yet apart from a short demo piece they recorded with a microphone. They have booked a recording studio locally and are going to be recording soon. As with many local band they are only well known to their friends such as myself but they are trying to promote themselves with myspace e.g adding recording studios to their friends list and asking to be promoted over the internet so other myspace users who have no idea who the band is can check them out and see if they think they are any good. This is fundamental for a unknown band like this. They are also hoping to get a video of one of the many local gigs they have done so people can see what they are like live and then maybe if people liked the vido they could actually come along to one of them. I have been to one of their gigs and i can personally recomend going but not for the faint hearted. They also like prodigy have a list of who is in the band and how many their are and what part they play in the band be it vocals or guitar. Myspace has greatlyt improved the music indutry with loads of band forming and promoting themselves through myspace although soon just anyone will be able to say they have talent and that they are a band when really they are not.
