If not for two stinkers in the mix...this Sabbath offering would be must own. But what is left is simply wicked Iommi guitar burns that beg repeated listens. "You Won't Change Me" catches...

Using a full-stop seems to be the in vogue thing to do for brands this year, with AOL following Sony's make.believe strategy and adding a dot to the end of its logo. Oh, and just to annoy the stuffing out of grammar pedants, it's made the 'O' of its name lower case. AOL...

Loving this thread on The Word's website about bands and their food equivalent. Obviously, a lot of them are just straight down the line abuse. It doesn't take the finest comic mind in the world to equate The Stereophonics with spuds. However, some are rather more thought provoking. The Radiohead and Marmite comparison works for [...]
