Robots (heart) Pela... and TWO Contests to boot!
Pela rocks. Pela rocks live. Pela remixed rocks just as hard. Pela is no stranger to MFR.
In case the picture isn't crystal clear at this point, Pela is a band to watch. They've got a huge sound, huge hearts, and a huge debut album, Anytown Graffiti that is FINALLY dropping Tuesday of this week (April 24th)! Even Rolling Stone is getting on the bandwagon, meaning your chances to see these lads in cozy spaces are shrinking rapidly, before they go all Interpol-big before you know it. Indeed, they've sold out the Mercury Lounge for the 3rd time in a row, and are about to hit the road for a long album launch tour.
This is where you look up your city and buy your tickets. Done? Okay. Keep reading.
So, how do you get the new CDs? Well, if you're thrifty like me, you can order it from Insound, but wait there's more! Enter coupon code Pela15 to get 15% off your album order, and get a free MP3 download as well!
But wait!!! There's even more! Don't want to pay for the CD at all? Why not win a copy from your robot buddies here at MFR? How do you get this sweet deal? It's easy.
Contest 1: Gimmie dat CD!
