About

True Believers is a semi-official Internet site in close contact with Hunters and Collectors, their management and their record label Liberation Records. It is run by fans, who dedicate their time to the cause on a volunteer basis.

 

Please feel free to contact us. True Believers are:

  • Caelie Kairos. Website concept. Caelie is a Canadian fan who has been following the band since the mid 1980’s.
  • Stuart Fenech. Webmaster. Hailing from Brisbane, Stuart has spent an unhealthy amount of time on this Internet site over the years.
