All Downhill From Here – Scene Point Blank: The Collected Music Writing of Ten Years covering Punk, Metal and Hardcore releases on Feb. 1, 2014
In 2003 the AFI messageboard spawned a new webzine called Scene Point Blank. AFI were at the top of the charts, The Blood Brothers and The Locust were making waves in hardcore, and a young folk-punk band called Against Me! released As the Eternal Cowboy. The times have changed, but Scene Point Blank is stronger than ever, celebrating 10 years with All Downhill From Here, a new book that highlights some of our favorite material and includes insight on the wide-ranging cast of writers behind some of the webzine world’s longer reviews.
Curated from 4000+ reviews and 200+ interviews, Scene Point Blank has put together some of our most popular items, some of our favorites, and our most memorable pieces into three formats: Kindle, eBook, and print, retailing from $7-15 depending on platform.
Let’s not to limit SPB to punk and hardcore, though. We’re proud of our varied content, ranging from blackened death to drone to hip-hop and even prog. Music shouldn’t be limited to genre and, in fact, discussing it in those terms is far too limiting. What we focus on is heavy, independent music—both the well-known and those just getting started.
After 10 years of online coverage, we now offer All Downhill From Here to the public on a format they can carry with them and share, free of hard-to-remember URLs. Pre-orders are available now.
