Est. somewhere before the incident

The leading music & entertainment magazine in the Western Wastes

Records that matter.
Opinions that don’t.

MERINGUE! covers real-world albums, artists and musical catastrophes with higher standards, lower patience and no meaningful relationship with the advertisers.

Each volume opens a different corner of the record cabinet—from immaculate tens and dangerously heavy riffs to road music, boss music and the turn-of-the-millennium wreckage. Select a cover to enter the archive.

“Smug bastard.”The immaculate records. The flawless victories. The albums that make a decimal point feel cowardly.

“Lift your end!”Riffs with their own gravitational field, records requiring reinforced shelving and music best moved in pairs.

MERINGUE! Volume Three — Road Tested magazine cover

Road Tested

“Road trip!”Records for ignition keys, motorway lights, questionable directions and the long stretch after the last service station.

MERINGUE! Volume Four — Boss Music magazine cover

Boss Music

“Turn it up.”Swagger, entrance music and records that walk away from explosions without checking the track listing.

MERINGUE! Volume Five — Millennium Bug magazine cover

Millennium Bug

“It’s not a phase.”Turn-of-the-century noise: baggy trousers, skate decks, eyeliner and several hard drives that may not survive midnight.
