They generally spam in as many places as possible for more exposure, or in relevant genre forums.

The lyrics forum works because it really doesn't make sense to post lyrics anywhere else in the same way, and many people find that forum through Google. Also, the people posting there are generally not trying to promote material in the same way people try to promote their music.
That's just wrong, I'm on several forums and sure some of them have more spam than others, for the most part it's not a problem whatsoever, and it is a great service to unsigned artists that wish a platform so that they can display there work, get critiqued from veteran musicians, gather a fan base, make a few bucks, and discuss their music with everyone.

Simply horrid . . . I know
