An Introduction.

So this is basically where you can discover new music.

There will not be a huge amount of information relating to the bands, but there will be links to the bands websites, myspace pages, etc.

It is just a starting point for you, because I find that the hard part with discovering new music is not once you have found the band and trying to track their music down, but just the starting point of actually finding a quality band in the huge sea of uncertainty that is the worldwide music scene.

Good luck and enjoy.
