Finally! Here is the new Eardrums compilation, “A Good Crop – Eardrums Autumn Compilation 2008″. It’s free, and all the songs have been approved by the artists/the labels.The compilation includes 4 volumes (it will fill 4 cd-r’s), but I’ve decided to give you two this week and the last two next Tuesday. The reason for this is to avoid giving you an overdose of good music, and to ensure that the artists get the attention they deserve.
Like last time, I’m extremely proud of the cover art. The covers for volume 1 and 2 are made by the American painter/sculptor/illustrator Souther Salazar and the English Graphic artist and musician Alex Ostrowski.
…AND Pleeeease, leave a comment and tell me what you think, – and tell your friends about it!
Enjoy the Good Crop Pop!
Here are the albums (browse down for Volume 2):
Volume 1:

I would so much like to know what you think!! Also, if you notice anything wrong either in the text or with the sound, please contact me (contact-link in the left sidebar).
