- Columbia Records Official Site:
This band puts more passion into singles perfromances than most
bands do in several tours. To say that they are a most incredible
live act is an understatement. Do yourself a favor and check out
what rock and roll should be if they come to your town. In the
meantime their albums are tasty morsels of rock, blues, soul, and
tons of energy. It's nice to see so much work put into an
official site...lots of great info, etc.
- Merebith Borakove's Unofficial Site:
This site is actualy made by a friend of a friend and it's damn
good! even more info that the official

Cheryl's Beatles Page:
There are literally hundreds of sites for this band and this site
includes links to most of them (for the completests). As

band can progress throught a career without compromise.

|
| foo fighters |
- Offical Site:
These guys rock! This is the official site with a lot of great

company they list all the unofficial sites and actually supporting
them...imagine that!
|
| fugazi |
- The FUGAZI Page:
Complete discography, help the band with their upcoming film, and
a VERY complete photo gallery. No t-shirts, $5 shows, and complete

| hurricane #1 |
- Evan's Unoffical Page:
Nice job Evan! The person who runs this site, not only runs the
Ride email list, but has also created this site in cooperation
with the band and label itself. Ya see, not all bands and record
co. people are that bad!
|
| insatanity |
- The Insatanity Page:
This page was made by my friend and former roommate, Mark. His band,
some of *HIS* views, various ways to get in touch with the band
members, and basically one of the most organized band sites around,
period. This site really serves as an example of how good a band
site can really be.
|
| the jesus and mary chain |
- April Skies:
An Unofficial Page that is way cooler than the official (are you
surprised?)

This is another one of the great JAMC cites out there
- Reverence:
Another nice unoffical page.

| kitchens of distinction |
- WHY, WHY, WHY doesn't this band get the credit it deserves?
They are recommended if you would enjoy a mix of My Bloody
Valentine, the Wedding Present, Cocteau Twins, Curve, Slowdive,
the Verve, the Smiths, Jimi Hendrix, and Smashing Pumpkins.
Contact me if you'd like to know more about their sound. BUT
if you are reading this and you know of other web sites, any
information, or any way of contacting someone who knows what
this band is doing currently, PLEASE
email me.
Thanks!

YES! The first really complete Kitchens site I've seen!

The only page I know dedicated to the band that has penned my
favorite song of all time. A few news items, etc.

A very basic page with a nice discography, but hasn't been
updated in awhile.

|
| mogwai |
- Official Mogwai Information:
You may remember the name from the movie Gremlins, but I
can assure you, we're talking about something completely
different: spacey guitars, pounding rhythms, and mostly
instrumental at that. They also put on one hell of a live show!
|
| mojave 3 |
- The Official Mojave 3 site:
Mojave 3 are Neil Halstead, Rachel Goswell & Ian McCoutcheon of
Slowdive. This time around the music is more accoustic and mellow
then their previous efforts as Slowdive. Their new single, "Who Do
You Love?" is wonderful!
- Official Bandography:
A complete history, discography, videography, and a few other
___graphy's.
- Lams Mojave 3 page:
The king of unofficial Mojave3 sites.
|
| my bloody valentine |
- The Unofficial Page:
The US mirror. A complete site that has all you could hope for
about Kevin Sheilds' brilliant music. The good news (if it is
*actually true*) is that he and Belinda are recording (and
supposedly actually *releasing*) material in the near
future. I'm skeptical, but see for yourself what's happening.

Another very complete NIN site.

An online magazine from the folks at alt.music.nin.

Very nice! Sound clips, video library, press archives, tour updates,
etc.

Another wonderful site created by a true lover of brit-pop
responsible for

An excellent unoffical site that was once shut down for having
sound files for the then unreleased album, Be Here Now.
|
| portishead |
- Portishead Online:
The official site of this wonderful band. Haven't heard them yet?
They combine elements of hip-hop & jazz, beth's beautiful (and
haunting) voice, and plenty of film noir to create one of the
most original sounds to surface in the last 10 years or so.
|
| the posies |
- Dear 23:
The Posies were one of those few bands who new how to write
"perfect pop songs" complete with amazing harmonies, catchy hooks,
and tons of energy. Check out the details of their recent
accoustic reunion-of-sorts.

My favorite rap/hip hop artist. So strong in so many ways.

| red house painters |
- The Red House Painters are the mesmerizing, sometimes
haunting, voice of Mark Kozelek, set to the background of
undertstated production, accoustic guitars, and some of the
most revealing lyrics i've ever heard. There used to be an
excellent official site for the band but I have no idea
what happened to it. Instead I'll offer you these sites:
- Unofficial Mark Kokelek Page
This page focuses on everything Mark has ever been involved with.
There is a lot of really useful and current information here.
- Funhouse:
Lyrics, guitar tabs, and a few pictures. Beautiful design.

| slowdive |
- The Slowdive Discography:
I can't say enough about this band! They take the sound a guitar

or Lush you really must hear this band. This is a complete
listing of all they have done and a very nice history of
the band.
- The Slowdive and Mojave3 Digest Archive:
Just what it says...
- Slowdive Information:

| the smiths |
- The Smiths 1982-1987:
All right, I've finally given in. After years of never even
wanting to give these guys a chance I've finally found myself
wanting to listen to them, thanks Maheen, Dave, and Gina.
This site has all the necessary information you'd need to start
out with, plus if you have a MIDI file capable computer it plays
their songs for each link within.
- Hand In Glove:
This page is actually done in cooperation with Rough Trade
records and has lots of interesting stuff about the band.
|
| sparklehorse |
- whatkind of name is this?:
The Official UK Page. This page is wonderful! Everything

and looks wonderful. Sparklehorse combines the low-fi sound of
Pavement, the songwriting of Neil Young, and a unique southern
twist to make some of the most exciting American Rock today.
- Capital Records' Site:
Their American label.

| stone roses |
- Stone Roses Fan Headquarters:
It's really amazing how much influence this band has had when
you really think about it. A lot of the bands I love have drawn
so much from the Roses' style. So I included this site for your
viewing pleasure.

Another wonderfully complete band about the Manc band that could
have been the next biggest band in the world.

| super furry animals |
- The SFA Offical Site:
What more could you want than a suped up, goofy site by my
favorite Welsh rockers. If you haven't heard this band yet you
are just plain silly!
- Flydaddy Records: SFA's
US label the has released Radiator, Outspaced,
Guerilla, and Mwng.
- Graciously Impatient:
By far the best unoffical site out there in terms of design and
content. You can pretty much find out any SFA-related info within
a few clicks.
- Super Furry Animals - They Don't Give a F***:
A great unofficial site that celebrates one of the UK's best
exports.

I don't know what the heck that means in Welsh, but I can say
that this Welsh band is one of the most fun, rocking bands,
you'll ever listen to.

A little discography here, but not much more.
- Pete Fowler's More Monsters:
Pete Fowler has been decorating SFA album covers since the singles
for the Radiator started coming out. Check out more of
his work on his very own website.

A VERY impressive unofficial page with just about any
information you could want about this pop singer/songwriter.
My only problem I have with this page is that it takes forever
to load up.
|
| trash can sinatras |
- The Official TCS Site:
I really don't know if there is a better pop band out there today,
period. Check out a site put together with the love of thier
music and the fans that support it. Better yet, but one of their
albums and experience what brilliantly written pop music is at its
most beautiful. Also check out the contests, write to the
band, and hear and hear some of the aforementioned music.
- Joe DiMaria's Unofficial Page:
The best unofficial site around! Joe has done tons of work on
his website to promote the band including offering CDs of b-sides,
rarities, and live songs. This is the unofficial site that TCS
work with themselves and refer too. See for yourself!
- Dan Tanser's Unofficial Site:
Another great site, with a discorgaphy with sleeve covers and
more.
