Founded by editor Sean Adams, the site features reviews, news, interviews, and discussion forums. HistoryDiS began as an email fanzine in 1998 called 'The Last Resort' but was relaunched by founder and editor Sean Adams as Drowned in Sound in 2000.{{cn|date=January 2013}} The freelance writing team is currently spread across four continents – North America, Asia, Europe and Australasia. The site is mostly based on contributions from unpaid writers and has an integrated forum to allow for discussion and comments on interviews, news and reviews. It also includes a user-rated database of artists and bands as well as details for most live music venues (big and small) in the UK. The site has over 60,000 registered members, and gets around 470,000 unique visitors per month.{{cn|date=January 2013}} In 2006 the site launched a podcast called Drowned in Sound Radio.
