Launch of VISIONBLURRED
Why was there no Independent Music Discoveries post yesterday?* Because I was cooking up yet another site I felt the world needed: VISIONBLURRED (http://visionblurred.moonfruit.com/).
This is intended to become the best and most comprehensive directory of links about Manic Street Preachers and The Horrors. Why those two bands? "Vision Blurred" happens to be an epic cover the Manics did of an (as-yet) unreleased Horrors track, plus the Horrors have remixed "Doors Closing Slowly" from Journal For Plague Lovers, and, most importantly, both bands are brilliant!
You can submit sites by commenting on the main page of VISIONBLURRED, or contacting me via e-mail. I'm also looking for any photos taken by fans of the bands to add to an extras gallery and fan art to spruce up the site's design - you will be credited for your contributions!
You'll also notice that there is a chatroom in beta, intended as a meeting-place for anyone who wants to use it (preferably fans of either or both bands!).
Types of links listed here include, but are not limited to: official sites, info + fan sites, forums, groups, photo and fan art galleries, text articles and interviews, videos, 'definitive' lists on which the bands appear, and general discography / review links.
Since there are already plenty of info- and pic-packed, audio-visual sites out there, that happen to all be scattered across the web, and some of the best are available only as archived versions, I thought I could fill a gap by providing a thorough directory to get to the goods. No dealing with clicking with disappointment to 'site not found' here!
Hope you enjoy browsing around and discover something new!
*=oh, and there will be Independent Music Discoveries next Friday, I promise!
