Cool idea, but they just put them all on rapidshare. I don't have a premium account, nor do I intend to purchase one, so this is really worthless to me.

They are on rapidshare however they are set so that you don't have to pay for an account.

Worthless if you don't try I guess. Worked fine for me. No I just need to find the time to check them all out.

Well I'll be damned; they're direct links, and not even limited to 50kb/s like I assumed (why I said they're worthless to me)

I withdraw my prior comment; thank you very much for correcting me. I'll be checking out all of these bands tonight.

There some decent stuff in there... Kekal sounds particularly interesting...

A good few christian metal bands in there - the christian black metal band (name escapes me) was particularly weird - not too bad but not my thing.

And yeah, I did come off as an a$$ and I appologize. I only got a quick look at the site before I had to run off somewhere and that seemed like a major bummer to me, as I wanted to check them out but could NOT sit and download them one at a time at 50kb/s. I simply don't have the time for that. I'm glad that's not the case, and am glad I got the chance to check these bands out; I think I've found a few I need to look into.

Great promotion idea on the part of Open Grave Records, I certainly hope this has gotten the publicity to get you a lot of new listeners. (I honestly have no idea if it has)
