Who wants to help me with a music review site?
 

So I'm probably buying my domain sometime next week, and it's going to be based on underground music. Nothing like Pitchfork, I despise pitchfork media. We need a good indie/ underground review site.

We'll start out with local bands and uncopyrighted stuff (everything on saucerlike recordings), and try to work our way up!


I mainly need people to do reviews, I have most of the graphics under control. Extra programmers will be nice as well.

I might give it a shot. I don't know much about programming, but I like music and am able to eloquently and reasonably describe and review it.

I'm fairly decent with HTML and I'm someone who will be a huge ass when I write review. I'll dismiss bands as utter trash, etc.


I'm doing it.

AN IDEA: I could write a most disappointing album of the month thing.

Or worst album of the month.

Or something equally rude and undesirable.

That would be a fun read Hayden. Espeacially if it was written by you

I'm putting Joel down as a reference on my application.

I can write something. Tell me what to write. It'll be good. I have experience. Experience, I tell 'ee.

I can (you know I can)

haha, sounds like a great idea hayden. And sounds good Glice, it's review-what-you-want right now because I need reviews on the site and I'm not the greatest at writing. And Eric, you should design some logo's for the site! Your other one was really good! Thanks to you too Kingcoffee! It's going to be like a Sonic Gossip music review site.

So you can all write reviews as long as you're gramatically intelligent!

Thanks

Do you accept drunken submissions Inhuman?If i'm on E i can be too kind with albums.

I'll review that new ROBE album.

ooh we can have an entire staff! i want to be on it kind of just for the sake of being on it

I'd done some reviews...

I'd like to contribute somehow. Whats the site name? Maybe I can make a logo.

id like to help, ill write a sissy spacek review... UGH i love that band!

and anyone else who wants to write reviews, ill send you free shit if you review it (good or bad)

You should contact Ecstatic Peace and try to get free shit once you get started.

I can write. I'm up for this.
I'll do a review later today maybe and i'll PM you it.

i'm doing my fanzine at the moment, but i could help out with some writing. if you want to read my writing style, click on the "Oscillator Zine" in my signature.

Alright thanks everyone! I'll contact Ecstaticpeace as soon as the website's up, you usually need an existing URL before obtaining any copyrights :(.

I built a layout using a pseudo site name, tell me what you think and give me suggestions.

So for now, if you could all suggest a catchy name for the page (to replace ugcolony) that would be great!

I know I have to fix the Navigation menu, it sucks. I'll get on it ASAP. And for Alex's Trip, I can send you the PSD of the layout, so you can help me fix it up a little (specifically logo and nav menu). Thanks a lot!

Well thanks again, Im'a go check out Everyneurotic's fanzine :)

I'm definately in Inhuman!

That's mighty cool. I might be able to write some reviews for ya

Awesome! Can't wait until we get this up and running! I'm sure ecstatic peace will be glad to help us out as well, we can advertise with them too!

And to everyone reviewing, it would be sweet if you could do one on "Melbourne Direct" (New 2xLP by SY and Jim), you can take anything off the Saucerlike Recordings site :)

Anyone ever read Mark Prindles reviews? I love them

To be honest, I'm not a fan of the layout. I was thinking it would be something more along the lines of the Ecstatic Peace site, or the one snake posted.

I won't be able to get anything done soon, maybe I could get a layout done by the end of September. Unless you are final on the one that is already in existance.

Alright, there's a lot of stylistic changes that I planned on revising. Nothing's final at this point, we'll try to agree on everything together, that way we have a community-based opinion over just a single perception. Everything's open for idea's at this point!

Thanks for the link Sn@ke! It brought forward a few idea's. I"ll post them up ASAP, probably later tonight or tomorrow-

The design should be a little more sparse looking,methinks.But it's not big deal.

The design makes me think of some heavy-metal site not an underground one.

some colors would look nice

I'll sell it to MetalRules.com

You should. Toss out the Wasp, put in a dragon/monster/something-equally-metal and sell it.

count me in

I could do something like this. Mind, it takes the color scheme from that one that Sn@ke recommended.

that looks like clip art. come on, we can do better than that.

Of course it does, I did it up in a few minutes and it's not even done.

Now,that's more like it.

yeah but what the fuck is that shit with the leaves and cattails?

Shut it Saturnine.Who are you,Marisol?

...he's Canadian.

What's not with the leaves and cattails?

you have no room to talk.



it's fucking leaves and cattails!
