I have been very pleased to be involved with this project – you can read more on the blog about my previous posts regarding the Sophie Lancaster Foundation.
Chris Broom of The Portsmouth News writes a lovely piece about this album, featured in The News yesterday – probably the only time I will be mentioned in the press alongside Marilyn Manson and Cradle Of Filth!
“PORTSMOUTH-based record label has pulled together some of the finest heavy metal and alternative acts around to appear on a charity album.
The 25-track album is in aid of the SOPHIE Lancaster Foundation, which is named after the 20-year-old music fan who was beaten to death in 2007 by a gang who didn’t like the way she dressed….
Acts on the album include Cradle of Filth, Devilment, DiElle and System of Hate.
Dani Filth, frontman of metal legends Cradle of Filth and Devilment, who are both on the album, said: ‘We’re particularly proud – both in Cradle Of Filth and Devilment – of being involved in this charity record, as it is without question an awesome monument to the great work that SOPHIE does challenging prejudices and intolerance towards people from alternative subcultures…
Coffee Jingle also hosted a fundraising gig for the charity at the Edge of The Wedge in Southsea last week and hope to put on more in the future.
The album is available as a digital download for £7, or a double-CD for £10 from cjrecords.bandcamp.com.”
