If you've watched my industry focused web series On The Record, then you're already well acquainted with the ever controversial topic of current music sales. Despite various opinions on how to revive physical media to a status of the past, many still agree metal is a genre that remains a collector's passion. This is where the fine people at Metal Wreckage, a music shopping club devoted to offering great deals for metal music, got involved and created one of the best ideas I've seen yet.
Metal Wreckage introduces their new program The Daily Steel. Its objective is to create a 24 hour bundle (a collection of both new and old releases in CD, Vinyl, and ltd edition formats) where you can find sales up to 65% off list price. Seriously! This is no ordinary bargain bin either, I've already seen incredibly enticing bundles from Anthrax, As I Lay Dying, Whitechapel, Six Feet Under, and Cannibal Corpse in the past week alone.
The program is free to register, sends an email update each morning with the daily offer, and if you decide to accept, the shipping is free for all U.S. orders. It really doesn't get any better than that!
