Great. Bandcamp is a good place to be even if you're merely interested in getting people to listen to your music. Seamless interaction with Facebook for streaming tracks a possibility I presume is of interest to you guys on a promotional level for starters ;-)

Yeah I guess so. We were mainly hoping of course being on Prog Archives would increase the amount of listeners we have. We do have a decent following on soundcloud. However the amount of music you upload onto soundcloud is limited. But yeah thanks windhawk, much appreciated, I'll be in touch as soon as I have everything sorted, which should be before tomorrow!

You know, being a part of a database that covers 6,951 artists at the time of writing isn't a great promotional pull in itself, apart from a fact that can be used for promotional purposes. Some will always stumble upon the recent additions list and explore, but that effect is short-lived.
Progarchives is a good place for a prog band to be, but doesn't lead to much additional interest in itself. But as one of many facts used in your marketing it'll have a positive effect ;-)

Yeah, the good thing about how big PA is that even it has almost 7 thousands artists here, it has also a lot of users, many of them eager to explore new (latest) Prog bands, such as yourself. And PA can be quite selective at times when it comes to additions, so I am glad you are here now.

Thanks Marty! I've finally uploaded the tracks to Bandcamp, it's taken me all evening, the tracks had to be converted to wav. files. But it is all cool now.
