Hello!

It's a busy, busy time of it here in Reviewage Towers.

There's lots of new music to talk about. But before we quite finish with what happened in 2011, take a look at my review of Gloucestershire music on the BBC site.

Meanwhile, over in Kent, there's plenty to sink your teeth into, what with my newly published review of Maine River. Expect more articles on RockKent ever so shortly.

And then, of course, there's my writing for Shout4Music. Check out the new When's Day feature, profiling seven days in pop history. There's also the weekly free downloads feature, regular themed articles and then interviews with various bands and artists.

Erm, yeah, so that's what I've been doing with my writing. When not furiously scribbling about Nordic music or profiling the latest squelchy-synthetic freebie download, I've been really enjoying the latest Half Man Half Biscuit album, 90 Bisodol (but of course) and the latest Miserable Rich album, Miss You In The Days.

I heartily recommend you do too.

And now for that cup of tea I've been promising myself.

Toodles.
