The 200th Nightshift was last month, so it’s back to business as usual now with issue 201! We’ll be counting down the issue numbers now to number 400, obviously, and after that 500, and one day 1,000. Is issue number 1 of Nightshift worth a thousand quid on eBay yet? If not, it should be…

This month there’s an interview with The Long Insiders, a ton of news from the local music scene, and reviews of new releases from Mary Bendytoy, Deeq, Coloureds, The Long Insiders and The Jukes. There’s also a comprehensive gig guide, live reviews including Smilex and many more, an introduction to Half Decent, a look back at what was going on in Oxford music five, ten and twenty years ago, and this issue’s Demos section has Lewis Newcombe as the demo of the month and ScenicLife in the Demo Dumper.
