As you probably know, we have been receiving dozens of promos daily for more than 10 years, which, at a rough calculation,  means that we have listened  more or less to 30,000 different bands – some good, some not so good, and, as we want to be professional, we have to be very strict in judging what we listen to. We are a small label and can afford to choose only a few bands every year, so we have to be discriminating. Then, in the morning of Wednesday 28 July 2010, we get this packet from Germany and, as we always do, we open it and put it in stand-by for listening. At 16.05 we insert the Cd into the stereo system and push the ‘play’ button, unaware of what’s to come. At 16.17 we can’t believe our ears and start reading the band’s biography. At 16.25, amazed and thrilled, we send the band an e-mail  expressing our enthusiasm and our willingness to sign a contract immediately. Believe us if we say that such a thing has happened only twice before in 11 years, that is with the Ephel Duath and the Negura Bunget…

wait few days for the official announcement :)
