Summer sucks.

I shouldn't think that the title needs justifying, considering last time I saw the large ball of fire in the sky I was abroad. Summer however also breeds other sucky offspring. For a start there's the full blown manflu I have at the moment, liquidising my brain and making my face feel like it's been attacked by a cheese grater. This, however, isn't a health-related blog, but rather a music blog.

Summer sucks for audiophiles due to a total lack of new and exciting music. Every innovative band is dragging it's drunken drummer round all the summer festivals, either to hear other bands that aren't releasing new music, or to play the same tunes they were playing in April, the last time I wrote on this blog.

The last release I was genuinely excited about was Does It Offend You, Yeah?'s "You have no idea what you're getting yourself into". Ah, me! bring on the rain.
