this week's NME in good taste shocker:



so what's next on the list Jan?

[Jan]

Glad you all found something you like!

Buy Future of the Left's debut! Best album of the year!

[Jan]

Eebs: Don't buy the new Stooges record, it's not worth it. The Thermals album is the dog's bollocks though.

I've been considering buying some more Replacements albums. I've lent out my copy of Let it Be and I'm missing it dearly. Wanting to get Zen Arcade by Husker Du, but no shop in Aberdeen has it and (bizarrely) neither does Amazon.

Recently "purchased" the new Radiohead and Magic by Bruce Springsteen - surprising not utter gash.

[eebs]

thanks Jan, will bear that in mind.
