After the great feedback and success of our 'Spring/Summer 2009 Compilation.' We have decided to do it all over again.

We are looking for bands and artists to contribute to the 'Alter The Press! Autumn/Winter 2009 Compilation'.

The compilation will be released to coincide with our very first birthday on August 11th.

The Spring/Summer Compilation can still be downloaded here (http://www.alterthepress.com/2009/04/free-download-alter-press-springsummer.html)

this may be a bit of a dumb question...but, are there any specific genres youre looking for? my band is gonna be finishing up our EP pretty quick and depending on your cut-off may submit something. we're along the lines of emmure and the heavier side of a day to remember

That sounds fine. I'm wanting to varify it a little and not have it stick to one genre. I want the compilation to show that the site covers many genres.

Nice to See Attack! Attack! getting some love overseas. Good band, in my opinion blow You Me At Six out of the water in the British pop-punk stakes.
