To be fair, most bands I but from don't have the "problem" of having a label to worry about ;)

I'm so tired of this evil label narrative. It's unfair to reduce them to those 5 major labels.

Particularly on Bandcamp there are countless small, honest labels that act as a curator and really help to develop their artists while taking a fair cut. Being featured on one of them is a huge opportunity for most artists.

I make it easy for myself. Any label that's a member of RIAA of IFPI is evil, the others I throw money at.

A very simplified view.

As I said, I'm making it easy for myself.
