What Parents Need to Know
About Buzznet
Parents need to know this site is designed for teens and young adults interested in the indie rock scene. Edgy content, like raucous band interviews and in-your-face photography is too mature for tweens. The member's forum users post freely and the conversations can get flirty or in-depth. Watch out for the links to other Web sites, like Vampire Freaks and The Gauntlet (a hardcore metal music fan site).
