Lots more highly rated albums for you lot here. All these 8's and 9's - it must surely be the 'summer effect'. Expect a shitload the next couple of weeks too following on from our efficient performances this week and last as plenty will need to be squeezed out before some festival called Roskilde begins. Yeh, I don't know what all the fuss is about either but would you believe it it takes 10 days out of everyone else's lives around here. As ever, some interesting new stories as well as some slightly more boring ones to be found in the archive.
