Send all news items and personal correspondence to joel@dynamitemetal.com. Promo guys and independent bands are encouraged to send in their announcements and press releases. Similarly, I always welcome news bits from readers.

Please do not send me any large email attachments. There is nothing more annoying than coming home and having to wait ten minutes for my email to download. If you want to send me your band's mp3 or something, go get a free Geocities account, upload it there, and I'll download it myself. Any email with an attachment over 400k in size will be ignored. I hate to do this, but my mail provider is strict about these things, so I have no choice.

I post the majority of what I receive, so long as I feel it's of general interest to my readers. Please do not be offended if I choose not to post an item you send in. Usually, this just means that I've covered the topic already.
