Kontinuum is officially the worst music magazine cartoon ever. Even worse than those two DJs from Melody Maker.

For shame, I once saw Lisa Dominique live, although I'm sure she was supporting somebody I actually wanted to see.

So we don't leave the americans out - What were American metal mags like in the 80s? Which non-memorable bands were covered there?

Yeah, I think that the Replacements were quite a big influence on those sorts of bands. What Goes On or someone had released all those early 'Placements records under licence (for the first time in the UK?) a couple of years prior to those bands getting big, maybe that was some sort of trigger. Mega City Four always used to dress like they'd just climbed off the roof on the cover of Let It Be.
Anyhow, 'Too Much Kissing' is a great song! The wife has a copy of Postcard CV in the back of the wardrobe I think, maybe I'll have to dig it out on Friday night. Wish I still had Snuff's 'Not Listening' though, cos that was truly a corker.

Actually, at the weekend, I got all my old copies of "mojo", and pitched the lot of them! I don't regret it either.
Pash, you should have bunged them on ebay, they sell quite well, especially the early issues.

I had a bunch of the early ones, starting at nr 3 or 4, but that block of them got ruined when the roof sprang a leak last year! Bloody typical...

For me it was (and remains) a draw between Terrorvision and, er, Paradise Lost (five times each).

Can anyone answer the original thread question? What do Shutty and Tony and the others do these days? I know the guy from Kerbdog hosts a radio show over in Ireland but what about the rest of the 'peak at #34' lot?

Tony Wright is always really good value on Buzzcocks (or was, since i haven't actually seen it for ages). It used to be a cert that just as the series was going shit, they'd wheel out either him or Shovel from M People - the Buzzcocks versions of Boris Johnson, I assume.

The aftermathSince splitting up, singer Tony Wright has formed Laika Dog; guitarist Mark Yates formed firstly the short-lived Boston Crabs and then Blunderbuss with biker bass player Sasquatch Bob, releasing one album to date, Relentless; whilst Leigh Marklew formed Malibu Stacey who released one album On Heat before splitting up. Ian Shuttleworth sought employment in Leeds, serving the UK's public education sector.
The re-unionThe group has since reformed to play two tours in 2005, and played what was described as their 'last EVER show' at Rock In The Castle in Scarborough, Yorkshire, on 17 September, 2005. A collection of B-sides and rarities was also issued by EMI in September 2005.
Terrorvision's original recording studio in Bradford is currently being revamped by Grant Henderson, and it will be launched as "Ivolv" in the first quarter of 2006.
