TuneLab Music is a rock music news website featuring news, reviews, interviews, and a message board. Its motto is "Everything Rock". The website relies heavily on participation from its users, who contribute by submitting news and reviews, as well as commenting on current news posts.

History

The idea of TuneLab Music originally started as a Live365 internet radio station. On June 15, 2004 the station officially re-launched as a website under the name Audio Aggression. In 2006, Audio Aggression changed its name to TuneLab Musiccite web

The site's main goal was and is to fill the void in rock music news sites while offering users more of a chance to be involved with the website. While there were several popular music news sources in existence, none covered the mainstream rock and active rock sub-genres as their main area of focus. The site also covers all other sub-genres of rock music.

The main feature of TuneLab Music is its up-to-date music news; it has quickly become one of the most comprehensive, in-depth rock news sites on the Internet. In addition, many other music websites utilize TuneLab Music as a source for news or reference the website, including Rolling Stone cite web
