Sense is very proud to announce the release
of a new cdr, to be given away with the next issue #25.
"Bed / Hot Rod" (SENSE CD12) is a 2-track EP by the now defunct
Philadelphia-based band Legend Of Boggy Creek. Fronted by Marc Manning,
now in Everything
Is Fine, the band released an awesome full-length album in 1999
and then it disappeared completely. "Bed" and "Hot Rod", two lengthy
instrumentals taken from that debut and last album, could fall into
any category you'd want them to belong, be it post rock, ethereal
or avant-garde pop; but you could just as safely say that they're
made of the same mystery dreams are made, rather than music.
The EP will appear in a handmade white-carton fuzzy wallet with
inlay on transparency and will be given away with initial copies
of Sense #25. The new issue is expected to appear in mid-July and
it will be dedicated to singers / songwriters, featuring Beth Orton
on the cover and stories about Rivulets, Simpatico, Wilco, Piano
Magic, Migala, Richard McGraw and many more.

Sense's 25th issue will appear in mid-July 2002 featuring Beth Orton

Sense international issue, which will be a mixed zine with the sweet
Japanese music fanzine "Quien?". Date of publication is expected
around late September. Thank you all for your delicious comments
and feedback and best wishes for a great summer!

Valentine's Day: Lovely or lonely?
Whatever you feel like, we're very proud to announce that Sense
teams up with the two excellent fanzines Tegel and Carousel for
a night full of love-songs and hate-songs. Hate-songs, of course,
are "I'm-in-love-actually-but-I-don't-admit-it" songs, as you all
know.
The event will take place (you've guessed it) on February 14th,
in the Muller Cafe (Em. Benaki 62 / Exarheia) at around 10pm. Bring
your lover or just your heartbroken self. We'll take care of anything
else.

The new issue of Sense will be published towards mid-March, featuring
Lambchop on the cover. The band are about to release a new album
"Is A Woman", which finds them in a perfect wistful and nostalgic
mood. Last time we counted, the band consists of 12 members, all
of whom will appear on the cover of the new issue, which will make
it the most populated cover in the history of "Sense". In fact,
they look like a football team, with Kurt Wagner being the coach.
Other attractions include features about Tanya Donelly, Chris Cacavas
and many many more.
New website coming soon as always!
This year will also see a few music releases as well, more news
when they come - but it's going to be a busy year.
As ever, the most heartfelt thanks to everyone for their support!
