We were just listening to Scozart's show tonight wondering how many real purchases people have made by hearing bands & artists that they heard first on The Dividing Line. This poll is limited to the last year only. People who vote might also want to post a little testimonial to impress the individual artists or labels in the near future!
Please refer to the "what was your last CD purhcase" thread to see that I have indeed acquired a veritable shitload of great new music since I discovered the Dividing Line. Sure, I haven't posted there in a while, but don't let that be any indication that I have suddenly stopped purchasing music. Quite the contrary. I was simply getting carpal tunnel from typing out everything I get.
To offer one example... my current buying binge (hey, another meaning for "BB"! ... LOL) has been focused on Gentle Giant, a band I am almost ashamed to have not been familiar with until very recently, since they so perfectly fit the profile of all that I love about epic progressive rock.
It is hard for me to remember a specific number but I would say the I would not have purchased Porcupine Tree's Deadwing, Warszawa or Lighbulb Sun Transatlantic's "Bridge Across Forever" without the influence of The Dividing Line.
Thanks to the DL last year ended for me in total bankrupcy. A few records I bought thanks to DL DJ's are: Kino TORTOISE Millions now living will never die PT Warsawa OSI Spock's Beard Gluttons for punishment & Octane special edition Gordian Knot (both albums) Kate Bush- Aerial
