Welcome to rootnode.org, a music-magazine site made by some students from Georgia Tech. More glut on the internet you say? No no my friend, that is not the case. Look closer and be amazed by what you see..

Rootnode is a music site with content provided entirely by regular members. There are no monthly issues, there is no specified genre. We have no agenda, the site is in no predisposed direction. Rootnode is a continously updated resource of music information- provided by you. Now you can share your opinion and hopefully listen to what others have to say. We're sure you want to be rock journalists like we do, but sadly the real world is confusing and full of rejection. Thankfully at rootnode the position of writer is easier to get than porno spam in your inbox. To be published, just write quality material that makes sense. Let us explore the areas of the site, you can write in any that you wish:

News
Quality news. Maybe even some rumors.

Concert Write-Ups
Describe what you saw. Post a setlist if you can. Help others decide what shows to go to. Find out if its worth $900 to have floor seats for Clapton when he comes to town to play his sissy 80's pop songs on his wimpy lace sensor Strat.

Editorials
If you are pissed off that the DMB show sold out to drunken frat boys who will leave after "Crash", then write an insightful editorial. Please, no editorials entitled, "Carson Daly ate my Balls".

Interviews
Really interesting interviews with interesting people.

Album Reviews
If you are damn sick and tired of your scratched up depressing records just read and find out which albums to buy. If you do not own certain albums you will never be taken seriously by music enthusiasts. If you do own certain albums you will never be taken seriously by music enthusiasts. Find out which records to thump with.

Discussions
Trade bootlegs. Discuss.

All articles written will be sent to the staff and reviewed before being posted. We will contact you via email if there are any problems with the article. Since these are going to be articles which remain indefinitely on the site, take your time and proofread them before you send. Its all for fun! We're making negative money and C's in our classes for running this thing.
