Black Rat Death Squad are ace too - punky, droney rock n roll.

The Computers are ace.

The Plight

The Steal

Ghost of a Thousand.

The fucker is already well aware and heading this way.....

There's an important day as you get older. You wake up one morning and simply decide - yep, this is it, from now on ALLLLLLLLL music is SHIT.

I'm not there yet old man.

Metallica are the equivalent of the big summer blockbuster of metal - no, they're not the best band in the world, but if you want to see the biggest, loudest, most dazzling show, no one can touch them.

Very much looking forward to the 26th!

What he said.

This is probably good - but big enough to headline?

I want a slot at t.

Bump from the past!

What happened to this lot?

Lamb of God - Wrath.

Bang. Your. Head.

Never reeeealy rated them, but this album is all killer!

Ta! (Eight)

Sup!

I need to switch some vids on my mac from avi to mp4 - anyone know/use any decent and free software? Download.com keeps coming up with trial versions and pay options. I'm cheap.

Meh. Where's my new fucking Glassjaw!

I concur, I thought both bands were pretty awesome, and FCM were both bored and boring.

The King Blues' newest record is an absolute peach like. "What if Punk Never Happened" is one of the best tunes I've heard in ages.

Indeed it was the Garage gig - but I was disappointed. The King Blues are so fantastic - and that night simply showed up how tame GA are.

The Gaslight Anthem recently were a let down - possibly as they had to follow the awesome King Blues, and seemed pretty tame in comparison. The fact they all look like and dress like Gap models also prejudiced me against them.

The Hold Steady ages ago was a bit poor - I think I just noticed how annoying the frontman is, and since then I can hardly listen to the CDs.

Do NOT fuck with Five.

Best. Boyband. Ever.

Oh, I need to add:

Young Widows - Old Wounds.

This is simply fantastic.

Edit. I now also love the Shitty Limits.

Jedi Mind Tricks - Violent By Design

Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx

Supersuckers - Get It Together

Back into some HXC:

Blacklisted - Peace on earth, war on stage

This Is Hell - Cripplers

50 Lions - Time is the enemy

Didn't really do pressies this year, but did get a rather ace framed Genghis Tron screenprint and Dark Knight on Blu Ray....

Managed to score some tickets, but had to pay for the fan club memebership. Still, it will be worth it for the look on my dad's face because he stupidly didn't go to see them during the Ballbreaker tour.

I went to see Dog Eat Dog, Dub War and Understand that night at the Garage. It was awesome and i don't regret it one bit.

Gallows are awesome - even when covering Maiden!

I paid over the odds via a tout site (first time I've ever had to do that) - but the premium was about the same as the "fan club" premium, but without a load of shite I don't want coming through the door. Just hope they ACTUALLY arrive.

Managed to get a pair, although had to scrabble about a bit. Better be good.

Beauty And The Beat by Edan

Best hip hop album of the millenium? Perfect from start to finish, the guy is a triple threat MC/DJ/producer, probably the best white rapper and the beats on this record are totally fresh while at the same time they sit perfectly beside classic rap tracks. Really heavy 60s/psych sound that doesn't ever seem gimmicky. Great guest spots too.

I too love this record.

Still no prersales?
