Candlemass
Well, no one accuse me of not putting up fresh new releases. This one has yet to come out. It hits on April 3rd. Swedish Epic Metal band Candlemass have been around since the 80's but are always awesome. They posted their album for streaming on MySpace after its release was delayed. So, considering the source, I'm surprised at the quality of the files. Anyways, enjoy!
The codec is 100% free! There is no trademark like there is on .jpgs and .mpgs. The codec is open source! They take up less room! There can be more files for the same volume! They have a better noise floor! They are the same sound quality but take less bytes! They're ethical! They are easier to upload! They are easier to download! They don't byte! They don't litter! They are awesome!
