Welcome to Noise For Heroes!
This is now the third incarnation of Noise For Heroes. The first
was from 1980 to 1983, when NFH was a xerox fanzine covering mostly British punk and new
wave bands. The second was from 1987 to 1992, when NFH covered punk, garage and power pop
bands worldwide, focusing on the Australian and continental European scenes with a fair
amount of US coverage. Now NFH is moving to the Internet, and that makes it possible to
include most of what was written in past issues of NFH as well as to keep adding new
material. There are so many bands in the world today that no one can possibly keep up with
them all, but hopefully Noise For Heroes can become a valuable reference where you can
find out a lot about great bands that arent very well known elsewhere.
Features and
reviews are organized by geographic area, which can only be justified on the grounds that
there is a hell of a lot less room to argue about where a band is from than there is about
what kind of music they play! So click a link on the left and see what's been
happening around the world.
