I'm not much of a metal fan, and had been urged to listen to this band by a friend ever since Ashes Against The Grain came out. I never bothered, until this year. Man am I glad I did. This band are...

How can you put Slipknot and Nickelback in the same sentence? At least Slipknot is more than merely some cynical commercial endeavor. At least they're real metal heads. They don't have to sing about...

A long drive. Not in the sense of Miami to San Francisco, but a long drive relative to my own driving experiences.

Maybe things continue to develop in the underground scene. For a surety virtually nothing's happened in 10 years in the mainstream.

Well, 'cept for the few odd releases that...

Iron & Wine. Ya know, I have heard absolutely nothing in their entire catalogue though have known who they are for years. Probs about time to put that right.

Interesting, I wasn't even aware that The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart had a new release. I'm curious now. Does it move on much from the sound on the debut?

Imperial Bedroom blows my mind. What a bloody great album.
