We're just taking a couple of weeks off for Christmas. Dead? Pffff!

[Rob Abelow @AbelowRob]

Music blogs are dead.

But you can still find music from real humans.

3. 'Viking's Choice' by Lars Gotrich:

A weekly-ish newsletter & playlist by NPR Music's Lars Gotrich. Heavy metal, heady psych, furious punk, cotton-candy pop and dreamy ambient... but more than likely, lots of e•mo•tion.

And by "turn fixture", obviously I mean firm fixture. Stupid autocorrect

[BrightonMusicBlog @BtnMusicBlog]

The @lovethyneighbr Triptych gigs have been a turn fixture in Brighton's musical calendar for years now, and there's always something for everyone on the bill. Comes with our highest recommendation 👍🏻
