Shout!!SHOUTING STREET AUDIO CASSETTES
Posted: September 13th, 2009

Hey readers! It's about time I let you know the reasons that things have been going really slow here lately. First of all, I started working a new job a few weeks back which has kept me both busy and tired. I work at a school and 8 hours a day hanging out with little kids makes you pretty exhausted. However I'm getting into it and I'm getting more and more excited to get MutinyZine going again. Another reason that updates have been few is that I've been working a lot with BOP Design. I got a ton of projects to finish up, but it's great work and I'm loving it.
However, the main reason I haven't had time to work on the zine is that I've sectretly been starting up my own label :) I didn't wanna go around talking about it until I finally got it all together. The label is called Shouting Street Audio Cassettes and is a tape label! I'm putting out my first tape in october/november and it's a split with Virgins (feat. Sam of New Mexican DIsaster Squad and No Friends) and Over Stars & Gutters. I can't tell you how excited I am about this release, it's gonna sound so awesome! Most of the work is done and it looks like I'll be getting some more time for MutinyZine again. Check out the label below and stay tuned for some updates this week!

I'M OFFICIALLY A TEACHER
Posted: May 27th, 2009

As some of you might know I've been going to the university for the last 3 and a half years in order to become a qualified teacher. This is part of why the site has been lacking updates pretty badly this year. Loads of books to read, final essays etc... But, today I attended my final seminar and I'm now officially a teacher!
So, starting tomorrow I will dive into the huge pile of records I've been meaning to review for the last couple of months. Time to dust of the old record player and get back in business. As for tonight, I'm just gonna kick back, listen to Guy Clark and treat myself with a 12 year old single malt. Cheers!

Records!!VINYL & RECORD COLLECTING - NEW ARTICLE
Posted: April 6th, 2009

Today I posted a new article about vinyl and record collecting. Virgil Dickerson from Vinyl Collective and Eric Mueller at Pirates Press were kind enough to answer a ton of questions I sent to them and I think it all turned out great. I also had the opportunity to interview the guys often reffered to as the "Wayne's World of record collecting" - Josh and Ken of Vinyl Vlog. They decided to answer my questions by video and I think it turned out great as well. You'll find the video on the bottom of the article. If you like vinyl and collecting records, check this one out!

Jon SnodgrassUPDATE + NEW REVIEWS| Posted: March 28th, 2009
Five new reviews were posted today including Jon Snodgrass' "Visitor's Band", Shorebirds' "It's Gonna Get Ugly", the new volume of "Dangerous Intersections" and a few more.

Sorry for the lack of updates in interviews and articles lately. As I mentioned earlier an interview with Austin Lucas is underway but it's been a little delayed since he's on tour with Tim Barry at the moment. It should be up shortly though. Also, the interview with author Nate Gangelhoff is coming together nicely and should be up any day now. I'm also working on an article about vinyl collecting that will feature the guys from Vinyl Vlog and Virgil from Vinyl Collective. Dangerous IntersectionsThat one should be pretty cool, so stay tuned for updates on that. Last but not least I'm about to interview Slow Boat Films and Konrad Wert aka Possessed by Paul James about the movie The Folksinger. Don't miss that!

Other than that I've changed the music player on the right and added some new tunes to it. There's also a new episode of Issue Oriented available featuring interviews with Mike Hale and Propagandhi that you don't want to miss.
Stay tuned and Thanks for reading what we write!
