”Makin’ it” is somewhat of a past tense in the rock world nowadays. When filesharing’s got the record industry shaking in it’s boots, and chewing-gum-marketability and safe bets are the only thing the industry’s ready to invest in, doing your own thing is the last and only option. If you want to make a living of rock music that is. That’s just what Molly’s Gusher did. Made their own record.
After paying their dues through demos, small gigs, dirty rehearsal rooms and member changes, the band always persevered.
They managed to be the first Swedish band ever to play at the acclaimed Woodstock Stop festival, in front of 400 000 people. They got rotation of their “Queen of my heart” – video on both MTV2 and MTV Nordic, and they got voted as the best band in their home town of Örebro in 2003. All this, and raving reviews, and well visited gigs.
This kind of acclaim tends to get frustrating without the “real” success. It’s kind of like feeding an albatross chick in a canary cage.
So they did what any reasonable band would do at this point, and took matter into their own hands.
November 2005 will see the dawning of a fully accomplished Molly’s Gusher. With their self titeled album they have the means for world domination, and not to say the drive and the energy. Their warm, lucid melodies, in combination with their down tuned, pounding rhythms penetrates the very core of the listeners emotional center. Just to stomp all over it.

We're people in the industry/scene who understand what musicians and fans want. We're creating a place where music in the most important thing. Remember when Myspace was a cool place for band to be discovered? Now in 2009 it's basically nothing but bands adding bands! Not to mention tons of fans have moved on to facebook because of all the band spam! Yeah that's right, sorry to tell you kids, but the industry knows your numbers are the result of "friend blasters" and spending day and night doing random add's. No one is impressed! So, what will be the site that Facebook defectors and music fans search when they want to hear some music?

Temos um álbum novo, LIFE WELL SPENT á venda no myspace. Foi inteiramente feito, produzido e desenhado por nós mesmos, sem senhum tipo de ajuda profissional. Indecisos? Oiço-te perguntar "ah, mas e um disco duma banda de que nunca ouvi falar, um disco gravado por amadores sem grande experiencia e tal, será que vale a pena!?". Podes sempre passar no nosso space e checkar as 3 musicas do LP que já temos disponiveis, Jenna, Cigarettes and Gasoline e Babywear. Se gostares e te apetecer dar 5 paus por um cd com essas mais 12, nós agradecemos e ficas com uma base de copos nova caso axes que foi banhada depois.
