Well this website has strict rules for the the bands they post I presume, they typically ignore a lot out there for reasons beyond my control. One band that has quite a bit of notoriety amongst fans of excellent music is The Damnwells. I submitted this to get posted in the news, but it didn't make the cut obviously because of quality bands such as Thrash Unreal. I just wanted to give the information for anyone who is a fan of the band because they have toured and struggled through difficult major label situations. Alex Dezen is a hell of song writer and I think you can give him a moment of your time. I believe it is being released on Rounder Records. The official announcement will be released tomorrow on their myspace page (www.myspace.com/thedamnwells) . The record is called "Our Last Century". It will be released next week, Feb. 10th, 2009, which is a suprising early release to many of their fans, but get ready it will be a contender for the record of the year. I have faith in Alex and his gang. Thank you for listening.

New record, "One Last Century." February 10, 2009. Free from Paste Magazine.

As of February 10, 2009, Paste Music will be offering the new Damnwells record, One Last Century, for free download from their website. Go to www.pastemagazine.com/thedamnwells and download the record for free.

A few words regarding this free record.

I suppose the hardest thing to explain to people is why I’m giving this record away. “You’re just going to give it away?” seems antithetical to the human brain. “Is this just a bunch of b-sides or something? Some ‘give away’ material you don’t mind releasing into the ether?” No. Quite the contrary. I have never worked so hard or put so much of myself into a collection of recorded songs. It is for just this reason that I want to give it away. To me it makes perfect sense. I just want people to hear this music, and I don’t want them to have to enter into some kind of contractual agreement with a third party to do so. Download the record, copy it and give it to your friends, lovers, and enemies. Whatever. It’s so hard these days just to get the actual music into people’s houses and cars, let alone their ears. Besides, I know everyone’s broke, maybe I can supply the soundtrack. So, I just want to give this music away because I want people to hear it. I should have done this years ago. I’m starting over.

Enjoy,

Alex Dezen

That is awesome. I remember seeing these guys open for Robert Randolph and the Family Band and they were awesome. I'll check this out for sure.
