Short of it: The Swedish glam/rock/pop/neo-swing band Lamont wants you to download their new album for free!
I like a couple of their songs, and friends of mine more into that genre love them. ... They do sing in English.

GREAT NEWS!
During the first 24 hours that The Pirate Bay supported us on their site, over 100.000 people have downloaded our entire album! And over 60.000 people have watched our video to 'The Golden Daze'...on the first day! That's crazy!

The world, here we come! (For you swedes: Tonight we talk about this on Rapport 19.30 and Nöjesnytt SVT24 21.50!)

The Swedish glam/rock/pop/neo-swing band Lamont officially supports the use of FREE torrents as a means for listeners to support their music! . Even more enticing is the fact that Lamont offers their music in three formats (links to torrent pages): MP3 format, FLAC (a popular lossless codec), and OGG Vorbis (another popular [free] lossy codec). For a complete list of their media they want you to support for free, go here.

If you are unfamiliar with downloading torrents: to download this, I recommend uTorrent 1.7.5. Really it is intuitive. Just download the TORRENT file to your computer, and open it in the program to start the download. Don't get tempted to dark-side of torrent downloading.

I'm thinking no one at TFP will actually download this...
