Oh my Jesus! Check it out!Check it out!! This music site rox... with 'Juxta!'-endorsed reviews and homage to the world's coolest new rock 'n' roll band THE DARKNESS!... Go to...www.uk-fusion.com
It may be totally irrelevant, but it's done by my brother Matt and it's a damn fine motorsport info epicentre to boot... www.geocities.com/mattruddsmotorsport
If ever you've read 'underground bible 'THE FLY' magazine you've probably heard of maverick writer Karl Cremin. This 'ere is his site... roofdog!
Roll up!It's hard going-it-alone in the music industry, right? And much more fun if quality contacts for fanzines, promotors, reviewers etc. 'within' are shared around? Of course it bloody well is, so check this out and latch onto the idea of forming a 'Collective' of your very own, for you to reign forever, and ever, and ever (!). Mmm. Yeh!...
the collective
Read the music obsessed salvation of Al Mc's raves fromt the underground, as the online genius of 'A CHEERY WAVE FROM STANDED YOUNGSTERS' fanzine revels in the power and outright glory of the internet - go get!...) bumble bee tree
suicidal trash (a great new website by Mr Martyn, obsessed with everything underground - and overground - as long as the music kicks arse!)
glamage (quality music a-go-go, jack-knifed with music reviews, interviews, debates and hilarious photos... webmaster Reverend Luke Foster is at its helm... so go now!!!!!)
dripfed (good music, good writing, good times)
the exclusive (the online equivalent of the comprehensive and fun fanzine of the same name. Matt Tee is the man to thank, and he's waiting for your 2 0'clock)
repeat ('Repeat' fanzine is one of if not the greatest fanzine in the world. Blessed with extensive dedication to THE MANIC STREET PREACHERS - who are by no coincidence one of if not the greatest band in the world - the 'Repeat' legacy focuses on the underground music scene with zest akimbo)
Then there's the fantastic online-zine raves from the ruby slippers
bottom of the bottle (Hosted by DJ Trev, this wheezy site's bleeding with all the latest news, views and broken noses from the metal and hip-hop nights Trev does in Driffield and Harrogate)
dj trev (Twinned with 'Bottom of the Bottle,' this site bigs da man up even more... and if you look closely in the bottom left of the homepage therez a nifty link to reams of reviews i've sent the site, much to Trev's dismay...)
driffield rock society (So some other people care about seeing and being involved with staging quality gigs in this town? Hear what these guys have to say about the current underground music scene in this boredom-bit neck of East Yorkshire)
fencing flatworm (A lesser-known but bloody fantastic record label aimed at promoting the men, the women and the bands at the bottom of the music industry's rung, not because they aren't talented but because they are so different and original they aren't in as much demand. If you make lo-fi music or simply like listening to it, the link's right there for you on the left, hint hint)
black velvet fanzine (As comprehensive as the written word on music gets - chek the site, get the gist and discover great music to shop your granny for...)
channelfly (The biz for new music)
carling live (Latest greatest ball-breaking gig and band news)
underexposed (Photos galore around, about and upside down in london venues a-go-go... more bands than you can throw a pepparami at, including the fcuking fantastic FONDA 500 & THE EDIBLE 5FT SMITHS!)
skippy's cage (a great place to start if you know nothing about anything underground... you're going underground)
jockrock (over-run by Scottish music, it's not that this site is overly patriotic... it's simply cram-packed with a love for music so deep they are still drilling for more, more, more g'dammit!!)
