The New Jersey music scene has played an important role in the history of recorded music. From the first sound recordings, the rise of jazz, blues and the big band, the evolution of rock and roll as a cultural icon, the break-through "Jersey sound", and the explosion of diverse music genres as punk, rap and metal, great bands continue to produce and perform great music into the early-morning hours.
Original bands create both new and classic sounds, while cover bands bring the party to legions of fans. Small clubs, bars, underground haunts and even living rooms and basements share a thriving scene with large venues, legendary establishments and arenas that are known worldwide.
We believe there is a scene here worth discovering. Areas like London, Detroit, New York and Seattle have developed unique sounds and styles, and influenced music far beyond their local stages, mosh pits and recording studios. The same thing continues to happen now, for those who know where to find it.
There are many behind the stages and pages of this scene. For those involved, the challenge is to break through the hype and let fans in on what's really going on. Many publications have put forth great efforts towards finding which bands are worth listening to and seeing live. We aim to do our part, along with those who have gone before us.
We want to give our readers exposure and insight into the scene. Our goal is to present the legendary history, current noise and future buzz to all music fans.
