I am listening to End.User and wading through the digital detritus of what was once the world reknowned Philly Drum and Bass scene. It's kind of eery how quickly the web falls apart around the edges after a scene fades to black.

• Platinum: Network Timeout, The server at www.platinum215.com is taking too long to respond.

• PJM Forums: "Our messageboard was unfortunately hacked and I need to rebuild our board; I'll let you know once it's back up." (November 2005).
• Kill Messinian: Looks like they did.

Tsk. Tsk. I told them time and again that the album had a different song on it when you turned it over. At least DOA is still alive and kicking. Kind of ironic that, but they're not Philly-based, so they don't really count.
