My first hack at doing this week in retrospect for ages heralds a week with some disturbingly low grades. Call it bad luck but this has to have been the week of the worst average quality of albums for a long time with an average grade of below the dividing line of 6. Is this a pre-cursor to 2009? I'll let you decide. As ever though, plenty of news to catch up on in our news archive.
