Buy Idlewild’s new album before it sells out or before it’s even made
November 26th, 2008
Idlewild’s sixth LP is on sale, but the band has not even begun recording it yet. In a strange marketing strategy, Idlewild said it is trying to deal "more quickly and directly with the fans."

Blur to reform in 2009, like totally official this time

RETRO: Assfactor 4 “Sometimes I Suck” live
November 21st, 2008
Some altruistic soul has finally posted another Assfactor 4 video on YouTube. It’s a glorious version of “Sometimes I Suck” off the 7″ of the same name, which came out on Repercussion records in, I think, 1993. I’m pretty sure the first pressing came out in 1993. And I’m 99% certain I was at this […]
