Friday 9 November saw the release of Sense #21, earlier than expected, with Fugazi gracing the cover and with inside stories about Tadpoles, Spokane, Trembling Blue Stars, Sing-Sing, Denise James, v23 designer Vaughan Oliver, The Winter Blanket, Mojave 3 and many many more. The new issue is available in Vinyl Microstore - Didotou 34, Athens. All apologies for the inevitable small rise of the cover price, we still do our best so that anyone who wants one copy can have one without actually thinking of its cost.

We're very proud to feature Fugazi on the cover of Sense #21, coming out in mid-November. The band has just released an amazing new album and an explosive single, you can click here for more information.

Upcoming attractions include a brand new face to this website really soon, as well as a new cdr release towards the beginning of 2002.

Sense is happy to announce that a new compilation cdr has been scheduled as a Christmas 2001 release, including songs from bands and artists that have been covered on recent issues of "Sense". Originally planned as a celebration giveaway compilation to mark the occasion of Sense's 20th issue, this idea had to be withdrawn and the release of the cdr re-scheduled. We'll have more details soon!

In the meanwhile, we're preparing a new face to Sense's website, well, yes, we know you've heard this all before, but hopefully, this time it will be something really worthwhile!

And just in case, you've read somewhere that Sense will make you laugh big time, well,it's true! We're happy that some of you recognise what Sense is all about. It's just that sometimes we write a few bits about music, because too much laughter may harm your health! Cheers!

Sense #18 is already old news, apologies for this site being inactive for so long. This time there was a reason (expect for us being lazy, that is) which has to do with computers and is boring so we're going to spare you. Let's just say that Sense #18 features Low on the cover and inside stories about The Olivia Tremor Control, Postblue, Pixies, Alasdair Roberts and many many more. Sense #19 will appear in early July and there's a surprise for you there!... Watch this space for more details soon(ish)!
