Sidney Crosley Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Today (Friday), Bandcamp is giving all of its proceeds to the ACLU, as are over 400 artists and labels. Anyone pick up anything? I got digital downloads of a bunch of things, including Father John Misty's new one, the new Menzingers, Joyce Manor - Cody, Weakerthans - Left and Leaving, Destroyer's Thief, Pinegrove - Elsewhere, Topshelf Sampler, Ztapes digital catalogue, Four Tet - There Is Love in You, and Nick Ferrio - Amongst the Birdsongs on vinyl (vinyl shipping from mostly US labels is crazy expensive, so just one record today).

daegor Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 bought a TON of stuff today. A lot of bands/labels are matching the donation, or even donating the entire sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 From the site: "And so all day today (starting at 12:01am Pacific Time), for any purchase you make on Bandcamp, we will be donating 100% of our share of the proceeds to the American Civil Liberties Union, who are working tirelessly to combat these discriminatory and unconstitutional actions."

HybridxReality Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 And I had just made a post about this too, haha. I'm probably going to pick up that Mansions' Dig up the Dead acoustic album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I picked up a few things that I was putting off buying. Real cool that some labels are donating their end of the profits too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stress On The Sky Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 This Will Destroy You announced on fb 25% of their online merch profits from their online store will go to ACLU for the next 4 years which is fucking brilliant. I only dropped $10 for the new pfb digital stuff but im in the process of buying my first apartment on my own dime atm. May make some personal donations later on when i have more wiggle room. Saw an estimate that stated they've sold over 5 times as much music than a standard friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) Any albums/EPs that are worth checking out? Or something that's cheap that is also good is more what I meant. Edited February 4, 2017 by HybridxReality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
