Throwing Free Music

Former Throwing Muses front women Kristen Hirsh and her band 50 Foot wave are so “fed up” with the record industry “money machine” that they are giving their listeners a gift.
In their words:
“The band states its goal as simply to circumvent the ‘money cycle’ and get high quality (free) recordings into the hands of a maximum number of people for evaluation at their leisure.”
“Money has so polluted the music world that my overwhelming urge right now is to divorce money from recorded music…So we’re sending free recordings off into the world to do their work. If people enjoy these songs and are excited by them, we ask that they share them with others. The music business is about fame and huge profits — egos and greed — music itself, is not.”

Did I mention that they rock hard and Kristen’s voice her husky voice has only gotten better with age?
