FAQ

#1 I intend to make zero profit from this. This is for bands to make money from, for bands to get promotion, recognition, for New England BM to show the rest of world what we are about.

#2What do I get out of this? I am increasing my portfolio and increasing my experience recording the style of music I like to record. I honestly look forward to meeting all of you and seeing what this blossoms into. We have a wonderful opportunity to organize and mutually benefit each other.

#3 Due to the response, there are going to be two cd's released simultaneously. Limited to 500 copies each (unless the masses have a problem with it, we can do more). I want to hand silk-screen the artwork for all 1000 cd's on a thick cardboard wallet.

The Compendium Maleficarum Red and the Compendium Maleficarum Black editions.

Both will be organized randomly with no heirarchy.
Both will have the same art (minus track listing), with different colors.

Advantages of doing two seperate versions versus a dual disc?:

a - Bands can purchase only the cd's of the version they want to sell
b- Raises collectability
c - Bands can buy both cd's and increase chance of profit (having both versions at a show could sway a customer to buy both or the version they do not have)

#4 This will be released online for free, with bands able to link to it and promote themselves and their fellow BM bands.

With the permission of every band, I plan to send it to various review sites, magazines, etc to increase exposure.

#5 Each band has from 4 to 8 minutes on this compilation. With many BM songs being on the longer end of the spectrum, the maximum is put in to ensure that a greater number of bands have the equal opportunity as the others. The minimum is put in for the same reason, for bands with shorter songs to have equal opportunity.

#6 Cd's are going to be replicated in bulk. This will keep costs down. Since I plan on doing the labor of screenprinting (feel free to volunteer to help), the albums will be much cheaper for you, the bands to buy and distribute.

#7 I plan on fronting the cost to make the cd's. Each band who wants cd's will need to submit a small deposit so that my investment is protected. Upon delivery of cd's, band will be responsible for cost of cd replication and cost per piece of cardboard wallet.

Please respond with any other questions/concerns comments you might have.

Thanks.
