Hi Xihilisk and welcome to the forum

Try to contact the Assistance/Support of each of those sites that are selling your music (which you have made available for free). Tell them your story and ask them politely (even if it may be hard to do so - given the circumstance) to remove your music from their sites...

I bet at least a few of them will comply

A futile task. I actually did email a site about a year ago and got no response. The way i see it, i release my albums for free on torrent sites etc, so if someone downloads my album from one of these Russian sites they're still hearing my music, and if a couple of Russian dudes make a few quid off it, good for them!
I'm sure they're treading on much much bigger toes than mine with these sites, so it's not worth my time fighting it. Seen my music on at least 10 sites for sale now, so maybe i even have a little Russian fanbase i don't know about

The only thing i am bothered about is people thinking i'm selling my music, which i am dead against, i don't even accept donations.

Cheers!

ps: If you do want to download any Xihilisk, you can get every single album for free from my myspace, check out the 2 blogs.

"Fuck the RIAA" is a 'greatest hits' (lol!) of sorts, just wanted to release a comp with a load of my best tracks on.

I've actually released 12 albums now though, so there's a lot more to hear. I recommend getting "EPTwo Special Edition" as it's my latest. You can get it either from the Myspace blog or it'll almost certainly be on your favourite torrent site.

If you're a member of What.CD, you can get all my albums in FLAC and MP3 V0 from there too.

I have found from experience that if I just download someone's back catalogue, it never gets properly listened too . I will certainly get EPTwo and then try the other stuff over time ,

I just had a peek at your blog-site, Lloyd

It does look interesting

it would be reasonable just to ask site support give away this album as well. The reason, that you see your album "for sale" is just because site admins/uploaders are just unaware that you actually give it away for free. the common "price" filters apply to each and every uploaded album, without particular exception.

so, to be simple: your album is being sold not intentionally, but just because each track in a row has certain default price.

hope you understand

regards,
Max
