Reviews will resume once I find some energy to physically type them up, but this week has been exhausting and I just zzzzzz...

Also a quick Q for anyone (?) who might be subscribed to my RSS feed to stay track: is the current formatting OK? At the moment I include the first 2-3 paragraphs of the review alongside the cover art & a link, but should I be doing more?
New review: Chumbawamba return a year later with a self-admittedly rushed-out sophomore album. It's 1987's Never Mind the Ballots: https://grumpfox.neocities.org/artists/chumbawamba#cw_nmtb

Going to be out of the country for a little bit so reviews and updates will go on hold - will resume near end of September.
It's time for a brand new 'Long Discography' project, as I start to tackle the long career of the anarchist pop iconoclasts Chumbawamba. Starting with their formal 1986 debut, Pictures of Starving Children Sell Records: https://grumpfox.neocities.org/artists/chumbawamba#cw_poscsr

New review, as I close off this brief return to the world of The National with their 2024 live album, which proves just how immense they are on stage. I attended this tour (not this gig tho)! 2024's Rome: https://grumpfox.neocities.org/artists/thenational#tn_rome

Looks good! Maybe some RSS purists prefer having the entire post in their reader, but I say simply offering a feed is winning.
Yeah I sometimes wonder if I should show the whole review, put some images up, maybe a song link, etc etc... but I also selfishly want for people to visit the site too!
