Avoiding the mainstream since 2004

About Me


We believe that music should look as good as it sounds. We give you nice things that you can show to your friends and make them jealous.
Notes to bands:
We can’t make you rich
We can’t make you famous
We can’t help you take your music to the next level, unless ’the next level’ happens to consist of 50 copies of a poorly marketed (but deliciously packaged) album
Sorry.
