WHAT'S NEW IN COSMIK DEBRIS?: Welcome to Cosmik Debris Magazine, one of the longest-lived music mags on the World Wide Web. (Remember when you actually said "World Wide" as part of the Web? Barely? Well, that's how long we've been here, Jack.) About eight months ago we decided to stop doing monthly issues and just have a free-flowing format where new reviews, articles, interviews and columns were simply added as they became available. Our own assessment? "Eh." We missed doing individual issues. They had personality. We're going back to that, starting with the August issue, which will blow your mind by debuting on Monday, July 19th. Hey, the print publications do it that way, and anything they can do, we can do with way, way less overhead, baby. Be watching for interviews with Rocket from the Tombs and Kevin Moyer, the man behind the Live From Nowhere Near You benefit CD, and articles on everything from music to politics to greyhounds. (Greyhounds?) Yes. And columns and reviews and all the things that make Cosmik Debris great. Be sure to remember that date (July 19th). Meanwhile, there's plenty to read here, so have at it!

COSMIK RADIO!: June is bustin' out all over, and we're bustin' out with a brand new edition of Cosmik Radio, the Online streaming audio program that may only be an hour long, but what an hour it is! Hard rock, surf, jazz. electronica, Latin, hip-hop, folk, ska, powerpop, garage, reggae, punk... Sorry, but we lost the Latvian Zydeco-Polka tuba record in the dryer, so the show isn't quite as diverse as we'd hoped, but it's close. You just need a RealAudio Player to listen. If you don't have one, go pick one up. Cosmik Radio is just the kind of Net-Only audio that radio station program directors don't want you getting hooked on. So go ahead. Inhale!

Here's where you'll find the stuff in Cosmik Debris Magazine from 1 Jan to 19 July, 2004!

ARTICLES - Over the last eight months some things happened that our writers just had to write about. Read about it all here!

COLUMNS - Our regular columns continued uninterrupted, and new columns were added! Don't miss them!

INTERVIEWS - And of course what would Cosmik Debris be without the interviews! We talked to some pretty diverse artists and you'll want to be in on the conversations.

TIME FOR THE THIRTEEN O'CLOCK NEWS - Just reading the news is pure torture these days. What the hell is going on in Iraq, and what's going on in the minds of the suits in Washington? Do suits have minds? And why didn't you watch Idol? Is there something wrong with you? We have the stats on that. Read all about it in the 13 O'Clock News, along with all the other news that's unfit to print.

CD & RECORD REVIEWS - A stack of music reviews for your reading pleasure.

EVERYTHING ELSE IN REVIEW Our review section for some of life's other joys, including books, DVDs and movies.



CREDITS - The names and e-mail addresses of the people responsible for this thing.

COSMIK RADIO - Want an hour of music that fits the personality of Cosmik Debris Magazine? That's right, Sinatra segues into Megadeth into Peter Tosh into Man Or Astro-Man into... well, you get the picture. It's a little something we like to call Genre Whiplash. Or maybe you're in the mood for a trip into The Fog Machine, our mix of music of the ethereal variety. All you need is a RealAudio player. Come on in.

OUR OWN WEBSITES - Many of the Cosmik Debris writers have websites of their own. We have some links right here.
