NME is the best magazine ever. In my opinion anyway.
But only now have I checked out their blogs on nme.com?!
There are movie reviews by James McMahon, behind the scenes in Head Office and even advice on websites to visit if you feel the need to waste time. But who I loved most was Jaimie Hodgson. A gentleman in charge of the radar section- who posts blogs on a regular basis to enlighten us on new music. The weird; the wonderful; the wannabees.
"Erm, you haven't heard of Swedish Techno-Rap 'megastars' Maskinen... Jesus H Christ, what the f*** have you been doing with your life?!? It's ok, we won't tell anyone."
I'm a sucker for new bands. And even you can't deny the joy of finding some gem among the awful and revelling in their newness (is newness a word; who knows?) But especially when none of your friends have even heard of them and you can brag on how YOU discovered them. YOU have found the Holy Grail. YOU have the right to be smug.
Imagine that's your job...Every blog is a new discovery with this guy.
Cheers for reading me dears, Beth x
