Bands unavailable on most Streaming Services

Anthropocene-Ex...
Sun, 19/02/2023 - 15:19

Nowadays it's an expectation that bands put their music on streaming services, seen as though that's how most people tend to discover new music and listen to their old favourites, it's even possible to skip over physical media releases entirely.
That being said, not all bands put their material onto services such as Spotify, Deezer, Soundcloud, whether it be an active decision or they didn't make the transition into the digital era and disbanded before it was standard practise.

Which Bands, albums and songs do you wish were on your favourite streaming services?

Kill Witch

Ad Hominem and Behemoth's Grom album off the top of my head.

Always found it weird when it's just a specific album that isn't on a service, is it Licensing issues? Label no longer interested in supporting it? Especially for a big band like Behemoth

For me I wish Sthygma's discography and Slugathor's "Echoes from beneath" were on spotify

Many Bands and Albums are missing. Dark Heart, Blood Money, Truppensturm, first two Accept Albums...

Blood Money used to be on streaming. NME also used to be on streaming.

Speedwolf sadly. They were on Spotify and then got taken off when the reunion fell through.

Can't find them anywhere else either.

You can probably listen to their full albums on youtube?

lambofgodfan00's picture

Yep. That's about it digitally. I downloaded their album on bandcamp before the price skyrocketed on there but it's on my old phone still and haven't been able to transfer it (my old car that got totaled had CD player, new one doesn't). Still have the cds and the repress LP Hell's Headbangers did, so I'm still set.

Just wish they were still on Spotify for ease of access for listening in the AM on the way to work.

Having the same issue with Gris. Just patiently awaiting like a madman until they drop it if they ever do. Went to a show to see Miserere Luminis and one of the members said they would see if they could drop it but ultimately im guessing it’s the label who has the last word.

Samhain isn’t on anything that I’m aware of and most of budgies albums aren’t on anything

doomtilldeath's picture

I just use a free youtube app with no ads when listening to music on the go. The only band I cant find is the finnish punk band Puhelinkoppi (founded by members of Convulse)

doomtilldeath's picture

Nvm, they're on soundcloud

Кюкокрест, don’t know their name in English.

buddyunholy's picture

it would be something like Hooked Cross, afaik they don't have an official translation

I rip the music to mp3 on my desktop PC and use itunes to sync it to my phone. It plays in apple music. If your computer doesn’t have a CD ROM drive you can buy a USB one for under $30. I don’t really see the point in paying for something I already bought years ago and the quality is better if you rip in 320 or FLAC

ThatBillyGuy's picture

I do the same thing. Works out great and haven’t had any issues

meaningless's picture

same!!

Anthropocene-Extinction's picture

Really what I'm wanting to get into. Physical Media always comes first for me but it's nice to have a digitized backup plan. Maybe when I get a new phone (mine is 8 years old) I should start downloading some bandcamp purchases also

meaningless's picture

i rip'd my stuff at home, copy it on a very small memory card and put it into my phone.
When i buy a new phone, i just stick the card in the new phone then..hahaha

frankie530's picture

I still do the same exact thing still with an iPod touch. I see 0 point in paying for something I already have, I can just buy new music from bands I like and put it on the iPod
