Submission Guidelines

If you represent a band or a label and would like to have your music featured here, e-mail submissions@mountainkingmusic.com.

I welcome music from both signed and unsigned acts. My primary music interests are hard rock and metal. I prefer music with strong melodies and at least the occasional hook. I have a secondary interest in outlaw country, Southern rock and blues and will consider submissions in those genres.

I will make an attempt to review albums that I receive, but I do not guarantee that I will review everything. If your music doesn't appeal to me for whatever reason, I will probably pass on the review. I'm not one of those writers that enjoys trashing records. I'd rather use my site to promote music I like.

I will accept music in physical or electronic format, though I have a soft spot for the physical. Full CDs with liner notes get brownie points. Streaming promos are a tough sell since much of my listening for reviews is done on the go, but I'll sometimes give them a shot.

I prefer to receive review copies on CD for a couple of reasons. The first being the purely personal love that I have for the physical product, and the second being that I do most of my listening for review on the go and need something portable. (Full CDs with liner notes will get brownie points.) I'll also accept high-quality digital files as long as they offer me the same portability as a CD. About the only thing I will not at least attempt to review is a voiceover CD because I find them unlistenable.

If you have any questions, hit me up and ask. Thanks.
