The first music forum I ever got involved with, affiliated with the excellent and also deceased magazine of the same name. Hard left politics, lots of brilliant DIY music, plenty of silliness and a long running discussion on which brands of cough medicine were best for getting you high (turns out they’re all a bit rubbish).

Just checked. Someone else has it now.

It was like quietus but less super-earnest and self-serious.

I set up a Geocities account with Ben and Squeak from the old NME boards. This was back in 1999 I think. Feel like Stuart Maconie just typing this.

Kerrang Forum although on reflection reckon it’d be full of alt right edgelords now (and probably always was).

It’s only now I realised the link between some of the ‘edgy’ posters on the Weezer message board and the types you’d find on 4chan.
