With the successful release of Radiohead’s 7th album, ‘In Rainbows,’ today, an experiment in treating fans like fans and not just empty-headed money dispensers has begun. We thought we’d take a look at the other artists going the label-free route.
British pop rock stars and Beatles worshipers Oasis recently parted ways with their record label. The band has already announced that their next single, ‘Lord Don’t Slow Me Down,’ will be available only as a digital download for 99 pence.
Jamiroquai and Madness are also rumored to be following in Radiohead’s footsteps, offering their next albums for free (or cheap) directly to their fans. Meanwhile, The Charlatans have powered their comeback in part by offering their new album for free through the website for XFM Radio.
