RAGE!

Peter

Some fairly amusing types in the UK have decided that they’re sick of X-Factor/Idol type records being number 1 in the charts over Christmas each year, so have started a campaign to make Rage Against the Machine’s song “Killing in the name” number 1 instead.

RAGE

I’ve seen it on Twitter a fair bit, with quite a few famous types promoting it. I hope it works, I can’t stand all that bubble gum plastic music marketing crossover stuff.

(Even if I see the irony in a whole lot of people all chanting about “not doing what they tell me” at the same time…)

On another music related note, if you’re interested in hearing some great new tunes, you can go to this website:

BLALOCK

This guy puts together a monthly ‘mix tape’ of new music by indie bands, and lets you download the MP3s from his site. A lot of the bands see it as free advertising and are quite keen to get themselves onto his ‘compilations’ each month. It’s apparently very good for your indie cred.
