Internet censorship and the State of the Skrow address
OPPOSE INTERNET CENSORSHIP
As I’m sure most anyone actually reading this is aware, there are a pair of bills running through the American legislation process right now that will virtually destroy the internet. If you happen to be comparatively uninformed or just enjoy clicking links in posts, you can learn a bit more about these terrible acts and how you can oppose them by clicking here, here, and/or here, just to give a few.
As a netlabel devoutly devoted to the dissemination of free art via an unfuckedwith internet, Skrow! openly and voraciously opposes SOPA, PIPA, and any other kind of censorship.
The State of the Skrow Address:
Four score and– er… strike that… a little over five years ago, Skrow!Media came into being with humble beginnings, and has, by the gracious participation of its listeners and submitters, continued to expand and thrive since then, albeit not without the occasional hiatus, extreme delay, or general inconsistency in quantity/frequency of posted releases.
We are here to say that we resolve, for 2012 and beyond (should there prove to be such a thing), to rectify this situation. Let it be decreed that henceforth, we will strive to post one new release every single week. Idealistically, I’d love to see this keep up through the entire year, but realistically, I know how things get. Regardless, the absolute minimum will be one album every month. Lots of good things on the horizon for us this year, so do hold us to it.
In fact, we’re due for another any time now…
