Song: "I Want You To Know"
Artist: Witchcraft
Album: Witchcraft (2004)

For the boy who sent me Tool's Stinkfist, my first mp3 ever, then came back two years later and told me that Mer de Noms was downloadable before the release of the album via some fansites, then came back three years later and sent me in the direction of Soulseek.

For those that were around the early days of Napster.

For torrents, and Azureus, and Torrentbox, Isohunt, Mininova...

For StonerRock.com.

For post-2005 Trent Reznor.

For all the bands and artists who've supported blogs.

For the bands who put together unique and worthwhile, sensibly priced merchandise and merchandise packages, who play live shows at any level, not relying completely on album sales for income but not resorting straight to iTunes.

For the labels who "get it".

For the writers and reviewers who've taken the time to consistently deliver content.

For the live music photographers who understand the concept of labels and tagging.

For those that make music videos and upload them to reputable sites.

For those that scour the internet for new, fresh, and original albums.

Even for those that essentially clone other blogs, or those that bring in albums that are years old.

For those that
comment,
feed read,
blogroll,
bookmark,
share,
and link.

Thank you.

"We are the reason
Why the gods change the season
Must not forget
Our manners
We are here
And that's what matters"

And this song, too.
