This ludicrously long-lived site is built and run by Alch (aka Mike) from his
attic hovel in deepest Walkley.
Say hello:
[ MySpace
| Last.FM
| Short Biog
]
Plans are afoot to expand this site to cover bands and events across the whole county, but in the mean time
I've gone and applied for a job down on the South coast (ooops), and am busy doing six trillion other things
as well. If you run a promo mob or music magazine or whatever, and are interested in joining forces, we should
talk....

Reviews
Please send in your CDs and demos. We'll review them a.s.a.p. Please expect (possibly very long)
delays, as we get a LOT of emails, requests, cds, etc. Many thanks to JA & DC, Andy,
Dr3w3d and Andrew for helping with the reviews, sometimes at very short notice.
REVIEWS: Band Demos and Limited Releases
Please submit demos on tape, CD or vinyl. It's our goal that every demo received will
(eventually) be reviewed. Please note, however, that we are desperately short of
reviewers, so reviews can take an awfully long time to appear. To avoid long delays,
we now try to list CDs sent to us as soon as we collect them from the PO Box, complete
with track listings, recording details, and so on - so please be sure to include that
information with your CD. A review will be added as soon as it becomes available.
Site Layout
Events and Gigs are listed under What's On.
Venue details are given in the Classified Listings.
Please give us lots of warning - the whole site is maintained
by Alch in his spare time, and updates are normally done at the start of the month
(hangover permitting).
