If we're talking about this band https://www.reverbnation.com/melissaband I don't think they have a valid release. I could be wrong, but from what I've read and seen I don't think that's the case. All they have is a bunch of songs compiled into a download which is not even a demo, nor an album, nor an EP, not even a compilation. Pretty much nothing that would count as a valid release.

Accepted on accident since they don't have a valid release yet.

I actually summoned you to the report thread there was about this, so you could bring your input, but you never responded.

I got a response from one of the former band members about their recording, when asking if it was released on tape back in the day:
"Unfortunately, none of the songs was released on cassette as when the master tape was sent in to be copied on cassettes it was lost and that was so devastating. Therefore we made them downloadable on ReverbNation."

He responded back pretty quickly on Facebook, though I didn't want to go through explaining the technicalities of uploading the music in a way that it would be considered a valid release on M.A. If anyone feels like getting in contact to either offer to upload the songs for them in an approved/sanctioned way where the tracks are all part of one digital release rather than several random songs the way they are on ReverbNation at the moment, or explain to them how to do it in a way that would qualify the material as a release here, it would be great to be able to include this interesting band.
