The Raveonettes twitter promotion
The Danish band has reportedly been using twitter to the best of their advantage in regards to promoting their music. Unlike some musicians such as John Mayer who seems to like using twitter only to waste his personal life while bouncing on and off the idea of self-ruin, the Raveonettes have been posting demos of their as of yet unreleased material on their twitter account. Instead of pointless facts about themselves or their lives, the band are actually making some useful material available to their fans and encouraging them to offer as much feedback on the music as possible. It seems it still takes a bunch of Europeans to teach the experienced guys and gals over there in Hollywood how it’s done.
