Show #9-The Future Kings of Nowhere and the not so fun death of the CD discussion

Hi,

All great commentary about the 'death of the CD'. This coming in at a time when a great local band i.e. see below is getting ready to release their first full-length CD. I hope this discussion did not scare them...how could it right?. Each artist should do what they see fit.
If you hate buying CDs then don't.
Download music after you pay for it.
Ok.

The Future Kings of Nowhere.

FKoN have the ability to take an acoustic guitar and produce a sound that people don't associate with acoustic.

Really... the FKoN sum up their style best on their Myspace page- "If pressed, this Durham/Chapel Hill group (Shayne O'Neill on vocals and guitar, Dan Kinney on drums, and a revolving cast of other players) will tell you that they play "acousticore," music for people who are angrier than Peter, Paul or Mary, but nicer than Henry Rollins."

Their album comes out in June. CD release party at Ringside, Durham on June 23rd.

We will be chatting about how they support their band with the use of technology.
