Carbon/Silicon Announce New Free Digital Album
via Band Website - Saturday, November 14
=20
"Mick and I were always going to be different this time around, a bit
more radical, a bit more 'couldn't care less' about what has gone
before, embrace this exciting time we live in... and we just wanted to
make great music." - Tony James
=20
New York, NY- November 13th, 2009-- Carbon/Silicon, the band formed by
Mick Jones of The Clash and Tony James of Generation X, will
self-release The Carbon Bubble on Saturday, November 14th. The reason
for the special weekend release date is that the album will be made
exclusively available as a FREE download via their website
www.carbonsiliconinc.com <http://www.carbonsiliconinc.com/> .
=20
In classic Carbon/Silicon fashion, Jones and James once again break away
from the conventional model of releasing an album, and instead, put The
Carbon Bubble directly in the hands of their fans for free. For years,
the band has made special tracks and concert bootlegs available on their
website. Jones and James are unencumbered by the traditional release
model and are determined to simply spread good music to their fans
=20
Not only will all 12 tracks on The Carbon Bubble be available as a free
download, but so will cover art, and a hi-resolution digital booklet.
Starting with the release of their first song "M.P.Free" in 2002,
Carbon/Silicon has fully embraced the free download revolution. James
elaborates: "We believed we had something special and best of all it was
all new songs. I've said before about how easy it is to just go out and
play all the old hits - although I'm not denigrating anyone who does
take that route...but we were determined to do it our way - cross new
frontiers and find a new way."
The Carbon Bubble is the follow up to their 2008 album The Last Post.
All 12 new songs are written by James and Jones.
=20
Today at 4pm EST, Tony James will be hosting a live webchat, via
carbonsiliconinc.com, to stream the album and answer questions about the
making of The Carbon Bubble.
Carbon/Silicon is: Mick Jones (lead vocals, guitar), Tony James
(guitar), Leo "Eazykill" Williams (bass) and Dominic Greensmith (drums)=20
