Are You Scared To Get Happy?
- Are You Scared To Get Happy?
"Are You Scared To Get Happy?" was an influential music fanzine published from Bristol, United Kingdom between 1985 and 1987 by Matt Haynes, later the co-founder of Sarah Records. It concentrated on what would now be termed twee pop bands, and was notable for its hardline approach to the independent ethic, as well as its expansive, lyrical writing style.Many subsequent fanzines were influenced by AYSTGH, [ [http://www.tangents.co.uk/tangents/archive/main/fanzine.html Tangents fun'n'frenzy filled web site. This is about fanzines ] ] and it was also a key influence on other record labels, e.g. "Unpopular" [ [http://www.diskant.net/talentspotter/labels/unpopular.htm diskant: an independent music community of fanzines, bands and record labels ] ] . AYSTGH set a trend in indie-pop fanzines by including flexi-discs including the earliest releases by bands such as Razorcuts, Talulah Gosh and several of the early Sarah Records bands.
