UBL.com is an entirely new promotional platform for emerging artists, offering the most complete online musical experience available anywhere.

Established by ARTISTdirect, Inc. in 1994, the Ultimate Band List (UBL.com) began as an award-winning, all-inclusive music portal and search engine, with resource links for industry professionals, musicians and recording artists. Together with its sister site, ARTISTdirect.com, UBL.com became a leading online destination for music industry experts and casual fans alike, featuring thousands of free music videos and downloads, an online database of more than 500,000 artists, a full-service online shopping mall of CDs and related music merchandise, and a vast directory of record labels, meta sites, online events, magazines and e-zines, venues, festivals, radio stations and digital download services.

In 2005, ARTISTdirect relaunched UBL.com as the ultimate destination for emerging artists and fans of "undiscovered" new music. With the combined promotional forces of ARTISTdirect and its partner sites, the UBL will enable artists to market, promote and distribute their music to the largest independent music community on the web.

UBL provides its member artists with a personal home page, streaming audio and video, tour calendar, photo gallery, news blog, email list management, a custom online storefront from which to sell physical and digital merchandise, and more. For fans and industry professionals, the UBL provides an open forum in which to discover new music and network with other supporters of independent artists.
