Any other people who want to be in a band, apply within. By that I mean learn some songs and bring your instrument to a show and go "hey, i wanna play this." Yeah. It was kinda vague.
if you would like bomb the music industry! to play in your town and you set up shows, this is an okay way to get in touch. however, booking@bombthemusicindustry.com is a way better way. we are hoping to come to all of america, canada, england, europe, japan and wherever else will have us this year - if your city is not listed in the tour dates right now, but you'd like to set up a show at some point, email booking@bombthemusicindustry.com - THEN we can get in touch with you when we're looking for a show in that area instead of hopelessly combing through myspace messages screaming "why why why why why why" thanks! see you soon!

a member of our august 17th engagement postulates several theorems regarding the dissolution of underground culture:
you fucking suck. and you disgrace Rancid and you should never be in their presence again. please kill yourselves and break all the instruments cuz you ruined those too.
a letter from my mom, re: ethics
Hey....I got this email. I was wondering if you wanted to make some shirts for your Rancid Show. I know you have no time to sell shirts but if it's cheap enough maybe one of your friends can sell shirts at the show. I just remember at you asob show how fast the shirts were going. I was just thinking for this one show. I am sure the band can fund can use extra money....since you just paid for the insurance. This is just a thought...and it would be just for one show.
critically accalimed:
sputnikmusic.com: "The fact that the music's energy is restrained has hndered the quality of some songs... I kinda found it hard to believe that this could possibly be considered classic."
read magazine:"Some songs seem to be made up of unfinished parts of other songs that are pieced together to form one long track. Other songs just sound unfinished."
punknews.org: "the (last) party foul... is the worst BTMI! album closer to date."
razorcake: "For instance, I really like Leftover Crack with their weird little black metal riffs thrown into the middle of their ska stuff (I know that’s not cool to admit after age eighteen if you’re not a junkie, but blah)."
jersey beat "Bomb the Music Industry makes a God awful clamity on Get Warmer"
i saw you guys last night with the ergs and as much as i hate to say it, it was terrible. the ergs were great as always but you guys have sounded better. and it sucks becasue youre an awesome recorded band. i dont know if its because you were drunk or what but mayeb you should practice. im not trying to be a dick but if i sound like one whatever, either way i'm honest. btw theres no use bashing this band because we broke up two years ago.
Hey, i just drove an hour to the concert arena to see you guys play. on your myspace page it states that you were going to be playing at 8 p.m. in austin tx, and when i showed up at 7:30 i was told that you had already performed at 6 p.m.i talked to a roadie and he told me that you would be playing at soundonsound records tomorrow at 10 a.m., but when i spoke to the people at SOSR they said that you would not be playing there tomorrow.i was just wondering if you were going to be playing at SOSR tomorrow at 10 a.m. so that i can show up then and not have to waste gas coming up there for no reason.
PS-youd better play a show that is worth 4 hours worth of gas money or im gonna be extremely upset.
"i think you've got some really strong music. which is why i drove from miami to kissimmee to see you assholes. so why did you come all the way to florida as just a two-piece karaoke show? if i e-mail you in advance of tour dates that i might make it out to, could you give me a head's up as to whether or not it will be a full set being performed by a full band? although i had a decent enough time with the 10 adolescents in attendance and my 6-pack of red stripe, i wouldn't have travelled so far to see something so half-assed, had i of known. also, what's the deal with the spray-paint t-shirt templates? silk screens really aren't that expensive you know."
"err... what can i say.
you were wasted man. i have to admit, part of me felt a little let down that id come all the way for you (and what i thought was gonna be the full band) to find you pretty much out of it on stage, but even so i had an amazing time. thinking about it on the ride home, i pretty much understood stuff to be honest - i thought, as i imagine you did, that you werent (and i hope this causes no offence) particularly well known in this country, so you thought "fuck it let's get pissed", which to be honest - i'd do. i do apprieciate however, that even at the times where you couldnt quite work out where your fingers were supposed to be, you gave it 600% and screamed your lungs out all the way... unfortunately, after you played i gave you a t-shirt to do, but as i mentioned (if you can remember, ha) that i had to leave early. in the end we gave up, took our t-shirts and ran becasue we were worried about our ride home."
2k4: short!version!!!
remember having fun? we do. bomb the music industry! writes songs about panic attacks, the band filter, whiskey, the nintendo entertainment system and john starks. remember playing fast? we do too. i guess that's the short version.
2k4: LOONG!VERSION!!!
Bomb the Music Industry! has been referred to others as Praise the Music Industry! and Murdering the Record Labels!
Bomb the Music Industry! does not sound good abbreviated at BTMI!
Bomb the Music Industry! is a collective of musicians moreso than a band. The goal is to have a stress-free environment to write, record and perform music. Of course, if anyone plays a wrong note in this "collective" they will be thrown out of the "collective" and will be forced to start a "band"
Bomb the Music Industry! is not a replacement for any bands that any members are currently in, regardless of what any of us have said while drunk.
Bomb the Music Industry! will do the best to make sure that you the "listener/mindless consumer" becomes simply the "listener" or dare I say, "participant." We will record music on our own personal equipment. We will release our songs for free on the internet. If you come to a Bomb the Music Industry! show with a CD-R, we will burn a compact disc for you. All Bomb the Music Industry! artwork will be available online, but you'll have to print those things out yourself. I know. We just aren't doing enough for our audience.
Since coming to the realization that by not printing out the artwork for our releases we are screwing over or audience, Bomb the Music Industry! has agreed to also have no merchandise available for purchase. We will set up screens, sponges, spraypaint, stencils and spaint. You supply the shirt. You get your shirt made for you on the spot. Tips will probably be appreciated by whatever interns will be working the merch booth.
Bomb the Music Industry! has members in Boston, Brooklyn and Georgia! And who knows if they know that this band was not more than just a drunken idea!
All songs on this website right now are Bomb the Music Industry! demos recorded by Jeff Rosenstock. They are not performed by the band and they were made in one of two bedrooms. So be nice.
Did I say band those two times? I meant "collective".
Bomb the Music Industry! would love to play a show. We would require gas money and probably a little bit extra so we can afford to keep our van. Originally the plan was to only ask for gas money and bring a receipt to every show until I realized that bands do incur slight expenses. Communism works on paper but does not work on the internet.
Bomb the Music Industry! will always do its best to keep everything cheap or free for you so you can go to a show as a person and not a roll of crisp five dollar bills. All we ask in return is that you say "thank you".
A good way to say "thank you" would be to spread the gospel of Bomb the Music Industry! all across the globe. Play the ASOB card! Play the Ian MacKaye card! Play the mixed gender card! We don't care! We just want to force everyone else to listen to what we think is good taste.
I'm just a college kid trying to make some friends/fans. Stop by if you have 3 minutes and listen to a song or comment or send a message or friend request or whatever you feel like. Thanks for the support.
