I don't think spreading the music is a bad thing.....

Well from the management stand point it is a bad thing...but from our standpoint it's a good thing.   It's not like it's the whole song anyway.

well its the whole of I.R.S. to be honest i don't know why it's a bad thing but i dont want to get banned, i love this forum 2 much

well yes it's mostly the whole song in 3 parts but still....it's a bad thing cuz most times upcoming albums are not supposed to have demo's leaked out.   It's just not good for them promotion wise....if every song got leaked...it's fair game to think that no one would purchase the Album when it finally did come out...plus the hype would be around the leaked songs and by the time the album was released, it would take the thunder away.  I am guessing that is how management would look at it.
