| Mulch welcomes second guitar player; Finally!!! |
|
Florida native
Cristian Rudes has joined Redford based death metal band Mulch as
a second guitar player. Cristian is best known for his Role as lead singer guitarist for Florida Band "Solstice".
Mulch formed in Nov 2000, when the core members of the now defunct Endorfiend,
Jon Halcomb - Guitars, Mike Reseigh - drums/vocals, and Ron
Hill - Bass, wanted to pursue a "heaver sound". Reseigh provided vocals for the power trio for several years until Brian Forgue joined them as a permanent front man in January of 2003. Soon after bassist Ron Hill left the band to “respectfully retire from the music scene”.
Kevin Carron replaced Hill on bass to fill out the rhythm section.
Mulch is currently rehearsing new material for a fall release and playing in and around the
Detroit area.

Offical Mulch website.

| How to stream mp3 from your site. |
|
Ever wonder why mp3s don't stream from your web site? I've noticed that
many mp3 song samples on indie band sites have to be downloaded completely before they will play. MP3 can be streamed from any site if you know how to do it. The following article will detail how to
set up a streaming meta file, generate play lists and a whole lot
more. With just a little planning, your site will stream mp3s and your fans won't have to go through a 5 meg download on a dial up connection again.

| Back Fourty - Blazing old trails in a new way |
|
Michigan based Back Forty are bringing their diverse music to ears in southeastern Michigan. The lyrics in their song, "Screen Door" explain the band perfectly: "The smooth transitions of jazz, the harsh chagrin of twang". Their music is as if you were walking through a screen door into the woods of Northern Michigan, and venturing out to the back forty. The core element of the music is folk music, but this is taken to an extreme, as they explore folk sounds from around the world and fuse them with an improvisational style that is unlike any other sound in the area. This may be folk music but it is not your father's folk music.

| New band voting system in the works |
|
Link voting has been temporarily taken down from the
front page while the system is revamped. Outside votes form band websites
will still work and be calculated. Look for the new "charts" in
the next couple of days.
Over the last week we have received several complaints about voting system
abuse. It is obvious that some are voting 1's for "their
competition" in an effort to improve their own position, even going to the extreme
of sending email to their followers to vote down another band. Nobody
gains by this kind of abuse and it virtually eliminates any usefulness of the
system.

| Super Model-t ~ Something For Your Misery |
|
"Reviewed by ibmonkey"
Funny thing about this review; as soon as Jeff said he was “looking forward to it,” I had major flashbacks of blue drinks hanging from neon green rope, a Moose, and then it cuts to me calling a policeman “sir.” But, after all the fast-paced wash of blurry memories, broken speedometers, and sardine can-like bars, I did remember that I actually did walk out of there with a CD, the latest offering from the five-piece band,
Supermodel-T. And, like my 100mph Ford Taurus, this disc takes you on a quick ride.

| New MP3's up at BLINDSHAME.com |
|
blindshame2003 writes
BLIND SHAME has been VERY busy in the studio lately laying down tracks for their debut album due later this fall. However, since entering the studio, the band has written a handful of new tunes, that the fans and the band itself have come to expect at shows. "We we're like, we have to add this song, and that song on the CD as people really dig these and we love playing them live" said vocalist Shane Douglas. "The entire recording process has taken a lot longer than we have expected, but adding these new songs will definitely be worth the wait" said guitarist Jay Arnold.
In the meantime, the band does have a song up on MP3.com and will add a couple more within the coming weeks.
Be sure to log onto www.blindshame.com
for the latest news, show updates and mp3's.

| Jocaine and 75 North at The Emerald |
|
On February 13, a thousand people rocked to the rhythm of
Jocaine at the "Piggyback Ride EP Release Party". Jason Krause of Kid Rock's band Twisted Brown Trucker and
Uncle Kracker jumped on stage and performed with Jo and the boys. It was an amazing night. Veteran Creem Magazine photographer
Bob Alford said "I haven't been in a crowd that entertained since J. Geils in '81. I felt like a pinball. It was great!".
As good as that night was, the triumphant return home of the "Piggyback Ride
Tour" will blow your minds! With an all new stage show and new songs from the
forthcoming full Jocaine release never before heard in public, Jocaine is fired up to close this
tour with a bang you won't soon forget. Never has there been an unsigned act with this much
staging and few national acts bring the passion and performance you'll witness at a Jocaine show!
