LazyRocker.com is the place on internet where you can find the latest news, tour dates, album reviews, interviews, concert reviews, photo reports and much more about your favorite rock bands. We report about the famous and well-known artists, but we like to introduce unknown and unsigned bands to you as well. The site is meant for readers all over the world, but as LazyRocker.com is located in the beautiful, deep south of the Netherlands we also like to put local bands and festivals in the spotlight.
We mainly bring you news about artists in the following genres: Rock, Alternative Rock, Modern Rock, Hard Rock, Melodic Rock & AOR, Heavy Metal, Classic Rock, Southern Rock, Sleazy & Glam Rock, Pop Rock, Blues Rock, Country Rock, Progressive Rock and Pop Music. LazyRocker.com is officially online since 03-Nov-09.
At this moment LazyRocker.com is looking for people who feel the need to share their thoughts about albums, concerts and other rock shit with the world on a regular base. It’s not necessary that you live in The Netherlands, but it is necessary you have a more-than-avarage knowledge of the rock genre you would like to write about. It is possible to write items in more than one genre. Also required are good skills in writing English. We expect you to review albums honest, but also in a respectful way to the artists as they put much time and effort in it. All other input and ideas are always welcome.
Before sending us a mail please take a look at the job description and realize that it is a cool, but time taking hobby. We can offer you a place in the LazyRocker.com Team and the possibility to explore your possibilities in the jungle of the rock world, send you (digital) promo albums of new releases, (if possible) free entrance for concert & festivals and the chance to interview artists.
