Not to be talking about albums of the year at this early stage but it's a contender IMHO. I've been listening to it a lot and it haven't reachd burn-out with it yet. Interesting funky guitars, quirky sounds bedded in the background and punchy and pointed.

The best thing I've heard in ages is Maggot Brain – Funkadelic I have a feeling tha most of you will have discovered this little gem a long time ago but I only heard it for the first time a few weeks ago when my fella recommended it to me. Trust me people this album is an absolute must have for any discerning record collection – a masterpiece. It features one of (if not thee) best guitar solos of all time from Eddie Hazel who is without doubt one of the most underrated and under appreciated guitarist around.

I think the new effort from The Boss is top quality stuff. It more than makes up for last year's disappointing 'Devils & Dust'.

Is that the same guy who used to be in Schroeder's Cat years ago? I've often seen him about and wondered if he still doing stuff. Good sounds.

Gnarls Barkley- 'Crazy'. A work of magnificent genius, utterly flawless, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant...the best, most worthy Number 1 in living memory.

Crazy was fun a few months ago, but now you can get Dr. John Harbison on the case: methinks it's been played to death. Some daycent tracks on the rest of the album though.

Some daycent tracks on the rest of the album though. Thing is, I never listen to the radio apart from Donal Dineen so 'Crazy' is still very fresh to me. I was wondering how I could be so passionate about a number 1 that is constantly on the radio but 'Crazy' is different. It's actually quite f**ked up.

Yeah, know what your saying. Some tunes you just can't get sick of. I had the same with Nelly's Hott in Here. seriously; one of my favourite tunes of the last few years. tiga did a deadly version of it too. I'm just a snob. when i hear muppets saying "play that 'Gnarly Birklay' tune", a little part of me dies.

Best thing I've heard in the last six months is "Witching Hour" by Ladytron, it's been out a while now but I'm still listening to it practically every day.

Anyone hear the Dublin Guitar Quartet's offering? Really good stuff. See they're supporting Final Fantasy in Wh***n's (seems to be dirty word now) in May. Should be worth checkin' out.

Amiina ....... 4 Icelandic lasses that are playing support for Sigur Ros on their current tour. Amazing stuff, all instrumental. They manage to 'play' a saw, some wine glasses and a collection of desk bells (y'know the bells you'd ring at a counter to draw someones attention).

Saw them supporting sigur ros in the Olympia and they were indeed fantastic. They do the strings on most of the Sigur Ros songs but I was really impressed with their own material.
