The transition of ideas from the underground to the mainstream:
- February 2005 Subterranean Metal primer in The Wire
- May 2006 article in New York Times Magazine on Heavy Metal
- July 2006 Ian likes Comets on Fire
- August 2006 Julian Cope writes on the new rock underground in the Guardian and mentions Comets on Fire
