The Beyond - Manic Sound Panic (Quite possibly the greatest EP recorded by a British band in the 90s. Or just possibly the greatest EP ever. Four astounding songs that still sound awesome 9 years after it was originally recorded. You’ll probably never find it, but if you do, buy it. Vinyl only, and a true classic. Eve Of My Release is one of the greatest songs ever)

The Babies Three - Homosexual Love Ballads (album title of last and this year).

Dai Lo those utterly wonderful demos.

BlowHoly - Church Bizarre (Take the chance. Go on. Just once in your life)

Grand Central - demo (yeah, even if I’m not happy with a member of the bands attitude. It’s still a great demo)

Neurosis - Times Of Grace (Well it’s Neurosis. And that tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Toxic Field Mice - Nobody Cried When Jaws Died

Anathema - Judgement (you really should get this, it is great music)

Blackrock - demos, (like stoner? Check out Blackrock. The best there is.)

Earthtone9 - Off Kilter Enhancement (They’ve managed to top that debut!)

Medulla Nocte - Nothing For Second (awesome track from the Freebase split CD)

Hero - demo songs - (needed something to lighten the mood after that final gig).

Iron Maiden - Live After Death (in honour of the reunion. Not convinced ... but!)

Sophia - Fixed Water (Gorgeous. Please do some gigs. Please!)

Mr Bungle - California (Paul Nocte wasn’t wrong. Awesome. Yes, maybe more commercial than before, but the best Bungle thus far. Patton croons it, the music is adventurous and safe at the same time. More next time. Buy buy buy.)

Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes. - Yeah it’s old, but it’s a beautiful album, I love female singers, they can just add that something else., and more emotion than the likes of Korn will EVER muster. It’s a reliable album for me when I need it.

Well, if you do, it’s simple really, if you want something reviewed, then send it to the address which is below and I’ll do it.

I could do with more demos. I want to review more demos, but as I’ve said before, I only have limited time and resources to trawl through and find stuff myself. You can help me by passing them on, if you know a band with a demo who wants a review, then pass on my details to them.

I try to review everything I receive, though it may take a couple of issues, but it will get done. Trying to review everything I receive means that if I don’t like it, then that’s what gets said. You takes your chance.

And in case you’re still wondering what stuff I listen to and review. Well, I hope I’m reasonably open minded and cover most stuff. Metal, punk, hardcore, light, heavy, commercial, extreme ... whatever. If you think there’s a major album that I’ve missed, well chances are I’ve not been sent a copy and just haven’t bought it. Simple as that. If you want to see it reviewed, then as a label you should send it,, as a person, maybe "loan" me a copy. It’s the reason Metallica, Maiden, Skunk Anansie and loads more ain’t been reviewed. Can’t afford to buy them.

Crikey. Everyone. Every single one of you deserves an acknowledgment. For being alive and for being wonderful wonderful people. But you ain’t getting one! Nah, cheers to the people that have helped out. Look into your conscious. You’ll know if it includes you.

Thanks to Vickie for letting me tape the Beyond EP so that I can once more listen and be blown away by it. It’s so good you won’t believe it.

Cheers to Dan for sorting out various bits and pieces. Let’s hope TOA is the success it needs and to be. To Matt for the trade and Alastair and Marksound for the demos.

Whoever else has helped, cheers.

Well, I still like it, so I claim that it’s not someone who walks into a record shop and asks for a disc!

All spelling mistakes are intentional and on purpose, designed to test your skill of observation and not down to stupidity on my behalf. Well, not all the time. Factual mistakes are usually mine, but could be blamed on the computer, or the government, or just the little green men.

The views are my own, except those expressed by other people. If you disagree with them, fine. But remember, it’s only an opinion, everyone’s entitled to it, and it’s a semi-free country. But does it really matter?
