A note that’s slightly off-topic (ie - me me me, us us us), but well worth it.
Those of you who listen to my Future Rock and Roll Radio Show (link on the front page) will know that a few months ago I gave a band called The Boxer Rebellion their first new LP spin on UK radio with a track called ‘Flashing Red Light Means Go’ and i'v been hammering their demos for some time.... well the guys self-released their album “Union” digitally last Tuesday, and within 48 hours it broke into the Top 5 of the iTunes US and UK Albums Chart with no label backing or radio play, no press, no bullshit - just the music - and a little love from i:tunes - who - refreshing as it is - totally backed em all the way - it really is nice to know that the biggest music retailer out there is run by people who actually love their music - irrelevant of spend or leverage or major label priority......In an effort to support what the guys are doing, wholly independently, I’d like to suggest you visit your local iTunes store and take a listen to the ‘Union’ album as well as their debut ‘Exits.’ They are both great records and well worth the $, £ or €.....check em out live if you can too - they rock the house down.....

As for the 3rd Fink record, we’re fast approaching the finish line - some days we're closer than others (this weekend was a totally frustrating write off) but, hey, it can't all be fun.....we’ll be posting a new demo up on the ‘space’ any day now so keep your eyes peeled.....
all love....
