DiS gets big-up from The Guardian
DiS gets big-up from The Guardian
sean by Sean Adams April 18th, 2005
It's not everyday you wake up, grab the Saturday Guardian and get struck in the face by such a nice review...

If you read The Times or something, and missed it, here're the kind words what they said in The Guide...

Drowned In Sound
Search Google for some impossibly obscure indie rock band that only formed three weeks ago and the results will inevitably lead you to this webzine - whose four year existence makes it something of a veteran in the cut and thrust world of next big thing prediction. The news on the site is great, with tip top pre-release info, and the reviews and profiles are just the right side of rabid. Plus fans of free music will discover downloads galore. But the best bit is the ranty community on the message board discussing such burning topics as "is it OK to like Belle & Sebastian?", the current Bravery versus Killers bitch-fight and making sarky remarks about Razorlight.
