The Bacon Eating Veggie label started as a dream, worked slowly towards becoming an ambition and eventually became a reality in the middle of Finsbury Park, London at the Fleadh Festival in 2002. Based in Essex, the labels aim is to get as many quality bands heard as possible through the medium of live gigs, compilation CD's or just by word of mouth.

Lead by Nicol Stone, the debut compilation is a bench mark for all those aspiring to promote the music they believe in. Not because it is amazingly good or well designed or even well promoted but as proof that all it takes is a lot of will power and a passion to keep going, no matter what the odds.All opinions are appreciated, so feel free to comment below.

Irk: Hard to know what to say about Irk. Fresh out of Walton, the bands demo impressed me enough for inclusion on the compilation. Slightly surreal in a drunken way punk rock with a dirty edge, the band have contributed the track 'So What If I'm A Paedophile?' for inclusion on the compilation.

Sensus: From the musical wilderness of Slough comes one of the best kept secrets in the UK indie scene. Sensus are a band with the musical potential to become amazing, and with their last CD being produced by Ronan Chris Murphy of Weezer & Tool fame, things are looking promising. Have contributed the track 'Synthetic' for use on the compilation.

Stereo Cat Babies: Unsigned and ludicrously young act from Livingston in Scotland. Taking the best parts of New Order & Depeche Mode & injecting it with a touch of Nine Inch Nails and in turn producing one of the best demos I have heard in a long time. Have contributed the track 'Dream Song' to the compilation.
