Score Music Monthly Newsletter: Issue 70 - April 15, 2007
Where the hell is spring?!?! Would someone please tell
us? Because we're tired of freezing our tushies off (Some of us more than
others...) We're trying to keep warm with thoughts of hot bodies clad in
as little clothing as possible (Think James Marsters in one of those
steamy sex episodes with Buffy). Wait, now we need a private moment.
Please excuse us and while we're otherwise disposed, take a gander at
what's new at Score! Music Magazine!
If you don't find what you're looking for we've got more to offer on our
Myspace
page!
**Musicians and publicists, please read the "THE BAND/MUSICIAN AND PUBLICIST
CORNER" section below for information regarding tracking of your reviews.
CYA and business mumbo-jumbo: The purpose of the newsletter is to update
our readers as to the goings on at Score! Music while allowing us to share
information with the bands we cover. If you're new to this newsletter,
please notice that it is organized by section to enable fast access to
pertinent information of interest to you. Also take note of the newsletter
sponsors, which are offset for recognition. We encourage your patronage
and/or visiting the websites of our sponsors. A vote for our sponsors is a
vote for Score! Music. (Cuz they're the ones forkin' over the cash to help
bring this lovely newsletter to you!)
STOP SENDING ME THIS: If you feel you've received this email in error and/or wish to be extracted from our list, please visit: www.scoremusicmagazine.com/newslette r.shtml to get outta the loop.
Thank you and enjoy!

What the Hell is a Podcast?
Think
of it as underground radio. Remember the days of really cool college radio?
All the hipsters were digging on R.E.M long before the rest of the populous
knew who the hell they were? That's the general vibe of Podcasting. It's
like public access...Wayne's World if you will, delivered via a
downloadable MP3 file for listening on your own schedule! If you're not
tapped into podcasting you're missing a whole new world of music,
entertainment, education and voyeurism!
So when you hear us talking about Siren Rebellion, that's what we're talking
about! And there's many ways (so easy a two-year old could tackle it) to
feast your ears on the aural pleasures of the Score! Sirens. For everything
you wanted to know about Podcasting, and how to get your mitts on the show,
visit the
Podcasting FAQs found at
Siren Rebellion.com!
THE WEBSITE/NEW ARTICLES
IN-DEPTH
CD REVIEWS: Paul sings the praises of RED WANTING BLUE and finds THE
PHOTO ATLAS to be "immature" while Tonya checks out THE VINTAGE, asking
"What girl could resist lines like, "Your attractive innocence you don't
know/And an awfully addictive smell of magic fantasy, springs from your
soul/Lotus, let it flow." Check them all out here:
www.scoremusicmagazine.com/newindepths.ph p
SHORTIES: THE SHAKE makes Siren Kimmie feel a little Old, but she
gets past it and enjoys what she hears, IN THEORY doesn't make her feel any
younger, but she offers some constructive criticism we hope they heed.
Finally Kimmie rounds out the shortie category after beating up her CD
player while digging on THE STALKING HORSES.

THE BAND/MUSICIAN AND PUBLICIST CORNER
Wondering
if we've received your CD or if you're CD review/Article has been posted?
Please refer to this newsletter, as it summarizes all of the newly added
articles. In the alternative, you may check the "What's New" pull down menu
on the main page of the website (www.scoremusicmagazine.com/score.shtml).
Both of these items are updated on or about the 15th of each month. If your
CD is not listed on this newsletter and/or the "What's New" section, either
your review has yet to be completed (in which case, keep watching the site
and this newsletter the 15th of each month but don't hold your breath) or
you haven't been paying attention. Either way, you are welcome to use our
handy search engine, to query by artist and/or CD title, to see if you
missed the announcement. (http://www.scoremusicmagazine.com/search
.shtml). Please save our sanity and search before emailing us.
PACKAGES ARRIVED:Neil Cotterill, Waking Ashland, Alex Dolan, the
Atlantic Manner, Tiger Saw, The Webelos, Lee Rogers, and Scott Blasey.
If you've followed all of the above instructions for tracking your
CD/Review, but your search was less than fruitful, you can send an email to
us at
info@scoremusicmagazine.com. However, please ONLY EMAIL US AS A LAST
RESORT and indicate that you've tried and simply couldn't find it. We
receive far too many CDs each month and would much rather use our time to
review your CDs instead of playing "where's my review" with every band.
Thank you from the way over-worked Sirens ;) (and Dang it, that's what this
newsletter is for! - Do we need to continue driving this point home? Cuz we
will!)

THE END
Yeah, after all the chocolate, jelly beans, ham, martinis and family fun,
we've got tummy aches too. So we've attempted to hold off on the sweet this
month. If we seem a little ruffled and sour you know why. But we promise,
once the weather breaks a little more we'll return to our cheery selves. (Do
we have cheery selves? We THINK so!)
Your candy-hungover Sirens:
Siren Kimmie and
Siren Cristy
