Demo Policy
vacuous pop welcomes demos and whilst we have eclectic taste there are limits. Sadly there's already an Oasis, so there's no need for any bands to sound exactly the same is there? There's a Pete Doherty too, and a Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Jamiroquai and... These, and bands that try to emulate them aren't really for us. Neither is funk, definitely no funk.
There is currently a large backlog of demos to work through so please be patient if you've sent any in. If I like what I hear then I'll be in touch but am generally unable to provide feedback on your music or respond to messages due to the amount received.
