Welcome to the new home for All the Young Punks. In the coming months, I hope to add more reviews, commentary, interviews, additional voices and up to date coverage of new indie music. Also look for more previews of local (Chicago) shows.
Since starting All the Young Punks a few years ago, I’ve called my site fiercely independent and that’s the same mindset that drives me today. I’m a music geek writing for other fans. With some exceptions, I pay my way into most shows. I don’t sit in V.I.P. sections. I experience concerts the same way you would. I’m also not beholden to advertisers.
My primary focus is writing about bands who still record for indie labels though I don’t limit my coverage. Please engage whether you agree with my views or not. An ongoing dialogue will only make this site more vibrant. I hope to bring together a community of music lovers.
To kick things off, I’ve included a selection of posts from this past year to help set up my year-end lists. I’ll be posting the best albums of 2013 shortly.
