Ok so a week into 2010 is a bit late for a "best of 20093 post but any regular readers (are there any?) will know i've had problems with hard-drives, my internet connection, my laptop in general and more recently some other stuff has came up that has prevented regular posting recently.

As the year comes to a close it's time to start compiling the end of year "2009 Best Of" lists. Over the next 10 days there will be a list of the best EPs of 2009, the best music videos, a countdown of the top 30 tracks. Finally there'll be a top 30 album countdown.

For whatever reason I never followed up on the tracks on I heard and forgot about the band. Then one day a friend of mine passes along a link to the bands MySpace page and I began to realize I have heard these guys before. It was [...]
I love instances where people are investing their time and effort into independent music, often with little or no reward, so when Alcopop Records sent me 2 of their latest releases a few weeks back I was happy to give them a spin. Add that to the fact that Alcopop is sister label to the [...] Related posts: But I Am Lefthanded After stumbling across the superb 'Long Goodbyes' and expressing... **Say something, Do something, Feel something, Anything at all** Have you [...]
What the hell is The Tupolev Ghost? I hear you ask...beats me, but if you were to ask who the hell are The Tupolev Ghost (TTG)?...well that's where I can assist!
