I cannot stop listening to that Bon Iver album.

I'll be having a little look through this list on the weekend, cheers hombré :cool:

I read the group Dry the River's "Shallow bed" was recorded on analogue gear, to give it a unique sound, it would be cool hear what people make of them, personally I rate.

Justin Bieber’s new CD is louder than Motorhead, AC/DC and The Sex Pistols :lol:

Lol.

The phrase "all mouth and no trousers" has probably never been more apt.

I thought he last Ryan Adams albums were poorly mastered. The Ane Brun and Civil Wars vinyl however are both exceptional.
