WHAT'S THIS?
Welcome to No Clout.
My name is Max and No Clout is my personal shrine to all the sweet little nothings that I have done in three decades of involvement with the underground Metal and Hardcore Punk scene: podcasts, old fanzines, past bands, mixtapes...
No Clout also hosts the #MetalPunkTapeExchange FAQ.
Metal Punk Tape Exchange (or MPTX) is a fun thing we started with my old friend Luc, it's a European mixtape trading ring that takes place every 4 weeks in physical life and on social networks. (Yes, we trade mixtapes on actual cassette tapes). I hope one day we'll be able to lift it off Instagram and facebook but, so far, it's been the most convenient way of having between 50-70 people each month or so trading tapes all over the globe. It's one of my proudest achievements, to be honest.

Other sections on this website include DRY RETCH, a (dormant... sigh...) blog. You will also find a few interviews I've made with friends (planning on doing more in the future!) and old reviews.
My annual 'best of' lists also go there. Saving the best for last, my friend Philippe agreed to do a 'Great comic books you've never heard of' column a looong time ago, in a moment of drunken nostalgia - I need to pester him to do some now more (not the moments of drunken nostalgia, the comics column!) No Clout also has a WORK header, where I've put my Resume and a long video playlist of TV series trailers I was associated with in the past, in my previous tenure as art director for CANAL+, before embarking on a new professional adventure - screenwriting -, of which I'll be telling more soon. After all, this place will be my main online presence for the foreseeable future, so why not make the most of it. Signing off, Maximilien Michiels April, 2022 |
