One of my main complaints with Spotify is how lousy it is with that for me. Release Radar is usually a pile of songs almost, but not quite, entirely unlike what I listen to. Bands it knows I follow since it makes playlists for them will have new tracks never show up unless I go to their page or it comes up randomly.
I have no idea what the "follow" feature does because it doesn't notify me for new music from followed artists, and "What's New" doesn't include new releases from all of them. But it has given me four notifications that Journey is coming to Nashville in case I didn't get it the first time.
- HypnoticOcelot 2y agoMy personal solution is to use ReleaseFeed(https://releasefeed.elomatreb.eu/ https://releasefeed.elomatreb.eu/) to get RSS updates for artists I want to listen to, which is great if you already use RSS.
- protocolture 2y agoI get targeted ads via the spotify app (and email sometimes) for Beast in Black, The Sword and Hammerfall. I dont really have the wide musical taste to comment in broad strokes but I havent missed an album for these so I am rather content. Release radar does seem useless.
