Thoughts, rants and polemics on the state of music in general

That's what I'll be posting on here - quite a lot of it will be opinionated and offensive to certain artists (who probably deserve to be offended now and again). Not all, mind. I'll also be including reviews and other commentary that will fall under the heading of praise where it's due. These days, I don't find very much praiseworthy in the arena of popular music, and when I do it's usually hidden almost to the point of obscurity on tiny labels or mySpace. There is almost nothing new and worthwhile being released by the major labels, and even most of the smaller labels seem to have run out of steam. And don't get me started on the state of national radio...
