Music or Artist Review Request Form
This is the form you want to use to submit music (or yourself) for review, or to suggest another artist for review for our "artist spotlight". Here's what you need for reviews:
  1. You need to have a working link up to our website in a visible area of your artist site before you actually submit this form. Text links are okay, but graphic or button links are better. You can find a good selections of graphics to link with here.
  2. If you have a working press kit on your website or something up at SonicBids, this is definitely going to be something that we'd like to get our hands on for the review. This is especially helpful for artist reviews. If not, no sweat -- just put any other relevant information in the form and we'll go from there. Either way, we NEED to have some sort of a "bio" or info page somewhere so we can pretend we know you when we don't.
  3. A decent band photo or CD cover we can use for the review SOMEWHERE on your site. (300x300 works best, as it'll be resized to this anyway.)
  4. For MP3 Reviews, the MP3 itself has to be downloadable (or stream-able) from your website. It somehow needs to be freely available on your site. It helps if you have an artist page somewhere with your MP3s on it (new fans are going to want to know where to find your music).

    Want to submit your music for consideration as a "Featured Artist"? You can mail your CDs and Press Kits to:

    The BandFreaks Independent Music Network
    c/o Avallon Julian Rai
    138 E. 14th St.
    Tucson, Arizona  85701

  5. All reviews come with a standard "for better or for worse" agreement. We can never promise you a good review. The reviewers on our review team are fair and unbiased, and we'll always try to pair your music up with a reviewer both familiar and into your particular genre of music. Our reviewers are also big fans, and supporters of, independent music in general -- and this support always translates to the review. The idea of our reviews is to get those of our visitors interested in your music over to your website and involved with what you're doing -- not to hate you. However, sometimes we've got to mix a generous amount of honesty in with our support of the scene. That said, whether you like the review or not, we're not removing the review don't ask us it still stays up no matter what it's not going to happen don't even bother asking et al ad infinitum -- and we expect the link to our site to stay up as well. Amen.
  6. Now, you can expect a good amount of new listener traffic to your website following the review (both fans interested in your music and curious passers-by), so make sure your website is up and ready for it.
  7. Please put any other information we need to know about the review in the "More info" field of this form. This is basically anything not viewable on your website, as in a bio or info about your band members, or anything else we might need to know to sound like we really know what's going on in your world when we don't.
  8. Lastly, please don't submit any music for review that you don't have anything to do with. Seriously. If you're not a member of the band, a manager, an agent, record label rep, or publicist, then you shouldn't be using this form. Need to make a suggestion for a band or song to review? Then do so using this form.

For now, the queue is manageable, so you can expect to see your review up within a couple of weeks at the most. Please feel free to contact us using this form if you have any questions or need to communicate with us about anything concerning your review.

Please fill out ALL parts of this form so your review doesn't become ... er ... buried.

More Info :


By submitting this review request, you confirm that you are who you say you are on this form, and that you understand what's detailed on this page. Pressing "submit" indicates that you've read these conditions for review, and that you're fully aware of what's going on. It also indicates your understanding that in uploading an MP3 file, we may host it on our website alongside the review itself. Pressing the submit button also says that you agree to hold our website, reviewers, editorial team, and Granite Creek free and clear of anything that might come out of the review. In a sense, you understand that we're not responsible for anything, we're victims, and that anything we print about you or anybody else belongs to us. Anything that happens after that point belongs to you. Of course your music and photos will always belong to you. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Did you just read the statement right above this one?
Yup
