Normally the UK Christmas Number 1 is an X-Factor type pop record. This year they've got competition from Noel Fielding, Idris Elba and Kasabian! :o

Here's a great song about Woody Guthrie:

Like this guy's sardonic sense of humor.

Tom Petty….

And now for a word of universal peace and brotherhood from the confederate soldier Hank Williams Jr….

My 'pathological obsession' for denim, garments & shoes curbs my other hobbies    … the only record, which I bought in the last months was the new CLUTCH album - but this is top notch

Check out Uncle ACid and the Deadbeats for some SAbbath stonery doomy type thing

^^ And a good choice it was! I also bought just a few records this year. Baroness' Purple is still not unwrapped as I just got home and couldn't play vinyl at my parents. But I look very forward to that one.

By the way, great Avatar @beerhammer.

I was just jamming melody lane on the way in to work.

Thanks @Max Power ! Been an emp fan since i just a young one. Didnt pick up their boxset though. Really cant deal with that blood music guy. Plus all the holes he was making international customers jump through. Also the price was ludicrous.

Just put my order in for the neurosis box set though. Really excited for that.

Nice one man,
New jeans+jacket landed an I'm soaking/giving it some U.A. Blood lust on the old record player.

To be honest I didn't follow Emperor since they split up (2001?). But Anthems and In the Nightside Eclipse were some favorite records of mine, 15-16 years ago.

Love Johnny Winter's style of electric blues/rock. He is a soulful musician.
