  Niklas' blog — Authority: 126
  It’s that time of the year again! Last year I did this, but this year I’ve got no time to make pretty album covers, but there’ll be tracks streamable.

  ..:: ThePopscene 2.0 ::.. — Authority: 124
  In the early 2000’s ‘rock’ seemed so bland, than 5 guys from New York arrived on the scene and Rock’nRoll was re-invented and loads of “The” bands followed… I remember being back from school one day, some time in 2001, and see The Strokes video to “Last Nite” on MTV (good old days) and being blown ...

  t5m: Love Personality, Love t5m — Authority: 566
  Whatever happened to the death of the album ? The download was supposed to consign LPs to the dustbin of history.

• CLIMATEGATE IS A DOUBLE-EDGED CAUSE, SO BEWARE

  
  REAL LIBERAL CHRISTIAN CHURCH — Authority: 122
  I want to go on record here sooner than later about this thing called Climategate. I am on record many times saying that it is not a question of whether or not 9/11 was an inside job but rather only a matter of how deep and wide. This thing called Climategate at best must be approached from the opposite direction. ...

  Song, by Toad — Authority: 430
