Will I be blocked by copyright for every song I upload?

Hi there! I am the drummer in a band called Nerve Shack and I am trying to upload our back catalogue here. Slowly, of course, due to the four-a-day file limit on unscouted artists, but trying all the same. Regardless, I knew I would run into problems when I got to our first song that was distributed on Spotify, as it immediately got halted for infringing on copyright. Our own copyright. I appealed this notion and I'm sure it will be let through, as has happened in the past when I tried to upload my own, copyrighted material on here, but will I have do go through that appeal process for every single track? If there is a way to avoid going through that again, I would be grateful if someone could let me know.


EDIT: I should clarify that I have full permission from my fellow band mates to upload our music here.


Thanks!

Maybe @TomFulp can help with this? I'm sure if you reached out he may be able to do something (or not)

I've approved your appeal and scouted your account now, so it will skip the copyright check moving forward.
