Download The Delegates’ The Diary of Hamilton Fish, for Free

Montreal’s The Delegates are excited to announce that Duble Plus Music has re-released their newest album, “The Diary of Hamilton Fish,” for FREE, that’s right, 100% FREE, just like your 1st month’s supply of Viagra, at Duble Plus Music’s website http://www.dubleplus.org. One more time…The New Album, FREE, at http://www.dubleplus.org. The amazing album artwork, created by Sara Martin, can also be downloaded with instructions for printing them out and folding them into your own CD booklet
The Delegates ask that, in return, you tell every single person you know to do the same: Send emails, Post Myspace bulletins, Write blogs about it, Post it on your scene sites, Write it in chalk on the sidewalk, Make posters and put them up, Design hand bills and hand them out, Draw on white t-shirts, Write it on your ass and run naked through the streets, and whatever else you can think of to get people downloading the music.
The release of “The Diary of Hamilton Fish,” is in conjunction with the launch of a fundraising campaign to help raise money for Nata Village. “Nata is a village of 5000 people located on the edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans which suffers from the second highest HIV infection rate in Africa. Every cent of every donation will go directly to the people of the Village to help with everything from mosquito nets to antiviral drugs” (Punknews.org, May 3, 2006).
The Delegates ask that if you have a few bucks sitting around that you might have spent on the album, make a donation to http://natavillage.typepad.com. You can read more about this charity on the Duble Plus site http://www.dubleplus.org while downloading the CD.
The record is the follow up to their self-released debut, 2003's We All Taste The Same, and was produced by Mike Trujillo (Osker, Leftover Crack, Choking Victim) at Succulent Sounds in Highland Park, CA.
You can get the CD and make a donation at http://www.dubleplus.org. You can also get to know The Delegates at http://www.thedelegates.org and http://www.myspace.com/thedelegates.

Good deal, definitely downloading. I have a huge respect for bands that give away their music for free. Thanks a lot!

The album is phenomenal and the band rules. Download, donate and go see them whenever possible.
