		<title>The Robot Ate Me - On Vacation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
You need to get away from it all.  You leave work early, head home, pack and fly to a lovely little island for a break.  Then you discover that don&#8217;t really like the sun and the unfamiliar is scary.  Welcome to the world of The Robot Ate Me.  There&#8217;s something deeper [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sleater-Kinney - You&#8217;re No Rock n&#8217; Roll Fun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I never really got into Sleater-Kinney.  Nothing against them or anything, I just never really encountered much of their music.  I might love it for all I know.  That said, I did somehow end up owning 2000&#8217;s All Hands On The Bad One, which I rated a very highly &#8220;eh, it&#8217;s alright&#8221;. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Malcolm Middleton - A New Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Malcolm Middleton is not a happy man.  His songs are usually bathed in misery.  On the occasions where he sings about love, it&#8217;s usually the fucked up kind.  Swear words are littered in as they would be in regular conversation.  Bitter comments are par for the course.
A New Heart is an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bedroom Eyes - Norwegian Pop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Let&#8217;s go where people are like you and me
The dance floor is a mess but so are we
A wonderful love letter to indie pop, Norwegian Pop is a simple three minute pop song that celebrates how important music can be in our lives.  It&#8217;s not showy, and it isn&#8217;t trying to win anyone over [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bunnygrunt - Me &#038; My Vampire Friends</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Man, is this song short.  I mean I could write all about it, or about Bunnygrunt, or indie pop in general, but I&#8217;m constantly going to come back to the length.  It&#8217;s less than a minute in length.  Quite considerably less than a minute actually.  Yet it still feels fully formed. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cover: Iron Horse do The Shins</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I am not a fan of cover bands.  I find the whole exercise to be rather pointless.  If you&#8217;ve got musical talent, make your own music.  If you haven&#8217;t, well, you&#8217;re probably in a cover band.
That said, I salute Iron Horse for doing something rather different.  On a most basic level [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arctic Monkeys - I Bet You Look Good On The Dance Floor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Remember when Arctic Monkeys were The Next Big Thing?  I know it means going all the way back to 2005, but try and stay with me here.  They were everywhere.  They sounded fresh, even if they weren&#8217;t particularly original, and suddenly they were everyone&#8217;s new favourite band.  A couple of number [...]]]></description>

		<title>Back When They Were Good: Counting Crows</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
now
Tepid power ballads and rehashes of past glories.
then
One of the most enjoyable things about Counting Crows was that they were one of the few really agreeable radio friendly bands.  All of their songs could quite happily be played on daytime radio, even on bland-o-rama stations and not bother anyone.  Even then though, they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tullycraft - Our Days in Kansas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Tullycraft have just released The Singles via their website, a 22 song collection that includes their singles (obviously), songs that appeared on compilations and a couple of live tracks too.  Shipping to the UK is a little pricey but I&#8217;m in no doubt that it&#8217;ll be worth it.  There are few bands these [...]]]></description>

		<title>Johnny Foreigner - Our Bipolar Friends</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I always welcome an excuse to talk about Johnny Foreigner on here, so it was rather pleasing today to receive a press release from Nettwerk announcing that they will be releasing JF&#8217;s Waited Up Til It Was Light album in the US in October.  Now I&#8217;m sure that dedicated fans will have already got [...]]]></description>
