It was a year when the world decided to take it’s natural revenge on the inhabitants of earth. A year when terrorists attacked the very core of the British and worldwide societies. The year that brought us earthquakes, bombs, wars and killer virus’s also brought us these new inspiring, fresh and underground music acts. Bands and artists that may become the stars of tomorrow or the lost unfound genius’s of cult fame. Whatever it is and wherever they go remember they were brought to you first by the original Indie compilation label. A label that has been bringing you completely new music for 7 years. A label that’s former acts have gone onto the airwaves of Radio1, Radio 2, BBC TV, Top shop screens and even voted best rock acts of 2005 by classic rock magazine. Hell, some former label mates even got full pages in Q magazine, hit the U.K charts as unsigned bands and some ended up playing support to legendary acts like Paul Weller and getting voted album of the week by NME magazine. Stay in the box - Dale Olivier, Dec 2005. This album was compiled by Will Sherman ( A&R Manager ) and Dale Olivier ( Head of A&R ) during the cold months of October-November 2005.
