However, there has been a lot of debate about this since a new site appeared recently. The Men From The Press is a site asking bands to sign up and pay to be reviewed by journalists. Now I guess if you think of the fact that an artist will usually pay anything from £500 a month/single release for a PR, then the price of this site isn't really that bad.
One of the selling points is that it helps bands who can't get a press officer. I would think however, on the whole, if they can't get a press officer, it is likely that they're just not good enough.
Anyway - see for yourself here: http://www.themenfromthepress.com
