The pick this week comprises an eclectic mix of mailbag contributions and the best of the blogosphere buzz. First off it appears that British group The Crimea, in an attempt to garner support from the crowds across the Atlantic (after being dropped by Warner), have released their third full length album for free on their website. That's right sports fans their whole album for download for free right here. Just to sweeten the deal the zip file is about 30M and is one of the fastest download sites I have experienced in a while.

Oh, yeh, I've still got some SXSW bands still to post. I just don't know how you're taking to the whole SXSW gig I've been doing and don't want to overdo it. I remember liking Capetown's The Dirty Skirts (pic) and pointed visitors toward the excellent The Muso because I didn't have a link. Now I do, so voila. The Hedrons are not covering AC/DC here, but that's okay, they're sufficiently hot. As for Oxford Collapse , I don't often go for the amusical hyperscreech so beloved of many [...]
I've been marvelling at the uber-cool that is The Dirty Skirts' site for a while, waiting for a chance to finally see them perform...... That line was destined to end in cliché. So what do I think? Well it was brilliant. The band are polished, and messy at once, their sound is ...
