This is such bad news. Anything to do with Live Nation generally is. BrooklynVegan, Alt Press, Revolver, and Goldmine were steps on the ladder to helping breaking bands get wider audiences. Is it about cutting off coverage of events and bands to Live Nation's expensive corporate slop? 😡

You may have noticed that the back catalogue has been getting a bit of a new life on digital / streaming services. Here’s a few releases that have been appearing on streaming for first time (or the first time in a long time). Plus, bits from Hefner, The French, and more. linktr.ee/darrenhayman...
