The Cauteriser is a completely independent music review website, supporting bands of all sizes but prioritising personal requests over PR mailshots. Everything contained within is done for the passion of music, and not for monetary gain (we make nowt from this!) All bands are welcomed to submit all that they have to share, we will cover everything we have time to fit in.
Whether you have music to be reviewed or news to share, please e-mail us all of the details and we will respond as soon as we are able. Please do not message us on Facebook as we don’t get notifications on there and we hate feeling like we have ignored you!
Jake is a lifetime music lover, a huge fan of punk, hardcore, anything original, catchy and loud as tits. Tastes vary between bands such as Circle Jerks, Rancid, Mad Capsule Markets, Exit_International, Schoolyard Heroes, Metz, Sonic Youth, Mars Volta, and god knows what else. Scout the header photos on this site for more music in the collection. As a member of a completely DIY band, Jake knows the struggles for new, upcoming bands to get notice without the support of well known links, so intends The Cauteriser to be a place for any band, big or small, to gain attention, request a review or to simply gain an additional voice for big announcements. We are giving back to the community, from one musician to another.
Kevin is our editor. He loves blankie naps and everybody, he just struggles to control his excitement sometimes. Thus music is okay but the sound of the CD changer is really interesting
Stanley is our Web and social assistant. He will not hesitate lick you.
If you are interested in putting your own writing skills out there or just want to have a shot at reviewing, we are open to additional, or even guest writers. Just get in touch and we can arrange something for you.
