    AFAIK those streaming music platforms are mostly a way for the artists to advertise themselves and their concerts/tours, because revenue from streaming music is minuscule. If so, this decision makes a lot of sense, even beyond being the morally correct one - I haven’t heard of them before, and now I’ve listened to their latest album and kinda want a concert ticket.

      They released Polygondwanaland for free ages ago and it’s a banger, if you want to check out more of their stuff.

        I just realized that’s a play on the ancient supercontinent gondwana. I guess I always misread it as wonderland. Neat.

For now there’s no real rules of Lemmy’s indieheads except these guidelines from the original subreddit:

We are purposely vague on a definition of “indie”. In general, music & news posts from these genres are not allowed:

Mainstream Rock/Metal Mainstream Pop Mainstream Hip Hop/R&B Mainstream Electronic & EDM

This is to encourage posts with music from more independent & underground artists. Experimental music & underground acts that exist within the banned genres will be allowed, at the discretion of the mods.

Feel free to discuss features you’d like to see on this community here. All ideas welcome!
