Bandcamp Friday (November 2021): What's New at MAR

The November 2021 edition of Bandcamp Friday is now live, and runs through 11:59 PM Pacific Time.

If you're unfamiliar with the concept, you may ask, what is Bandcamp Friday? It is Bandcamp's initiative to support artists and indie labels during the covid pandemic, which has hit the music industry as hard as any other. In short, Bandcamp waives its usual 10-15% revenue fee from midnight to midnight Pacific Time on these designated Fridays, and sellers get to keep 100% of revenue generated during this 24-hour period. BC has done these on the first Friday of every month since May 2020 (except January, June and July 2021) and as per the latest update, BC Fridays will continue through the rest of 2021.

To mark this edition of BC Friday, Metal Assault Records has launched three brand new pre-order campaigns to add to eight ongoing pre-order campaigns, plus lots of new music, merch and videos across the board. And, a whole bunch of existing music and merch in stock.
