About

Unfortunately, Shout Louder is no longer active. From 2016-2022 we did our best to champion new punk rock music, and we are incredibly grateful for all the interaction and support we’ve received. Alas, as I’ve become more active in live music I’ve got to prioritise work over the website and the podcast.

Shout Louder was a UK music zine for punks who don’t like papercuts.

The webzine was the main project, however, I also hosted the Shout Louder Punk Podcast. I have published two books of short stories about the DIY punk rock community, as part of Shout Louder’s PAPERCUTS series.

Based in Manchester, UK, our aim was always to bring you the view from down the front. I ran Shout Louder just for fun, without advertising, sponsorship or profit. Because I love live music, I wanted to help you discover the best in new punk rock through interviews, columns, podcasts and playlists.

Shout Louder has been my passion project since 2016, however, it’s currently on the back-burner whilst I study for a music production degree. I’ll be occasionally posting articles or podcasts when it’s fun to do so, however, I won’t be taking any submissions or working with guest writers. Thanks to everyone who has contributed and supported Shout Louder in the past, and thank you for your patience whilst the site is inactive.

All the best,

Sarah @ Shout Louder
