Expecting a naked pic of me? Sorry to disappoint you (or possibly make you thankful). Instead this is a journal with a simple edict: favourite bands. Many journals on here are dedicated purely to albums or tracks (and fine they are too) but I wanted to do something a little more personal and dedicate posts to my favourite bands and artists. Why I like them, how I got into them, brief histories and recommended releases, DVD'S, books etc.

Music should always be ultimately personal and not a mad dash to collect everything under the sun or to appear cultist for the sake of it. There is no 'in' crowd with me and some of my choices will be unashamedly mainstream and obvious and others not so obvious.

So just like your old uncle who regales you with tales of his wild youth and questionable music tastes, I will eulogise about what really makes me tick musically. Consider me stripped!
