Say no to manufactured pop

Are you sick of the mass market rubbish peddled as music by shows like Z Factor and Simon bloody Cowell, well here's the antidote.

It's the wonderful We're All Going to Die by Malcolm Middleton. The video is brilliant and even though you think the song is depressing it's not. Actually it's all about how we're all in the same boat really and that's more hopeful and uplifting than any amount of manufactured warbling and false cheeriness that the creepy kids on the X factor can offer.

So, when the track is released on 17th December I shall be downloading it and doing my part to make it the Christmas number 1 here in the UK.

Title: He shall purify

So, here it is. The story that popped into my head when I was at the Halle's performance of Handel's Messiah last Sunday. Of course, as I tried to write it down it appears it didn't arrive fully formed and it's not what I expected it to be. I hope you guys like it. I'm not sure about the title so if you think of something better, let me know.
