Blogwatch

Congratulations to Alex, now married and pondering a return to playing music in a band.

In the light of the MC5's recent decision to "reform" for the sake of Levi's, Olav's article for Logo magazine on selling out is a particularly topical read.

If it's wry and astute commentary on events in Iraq that you're after, then look no further than Wherever You Are, where you can find Vaughan's observations on propaganda and on the popularity of T-shirts with the BBC correspondent Rageh Omaar's head on them.

On Deviated Septum Kevin has been writing admiringly about Pitchfork's rather critical review of the White Stripes latest opus Elephant, which, I gather, has ruffled a few feathers. I haven't availed myself of a copy of the album yet, so I can't pass judgement.

Thanks to Mike's inaugural BlogBuzz Chart, I've been introduced to three more excellent sites:
Low Culture
It's OK, It's Just Your Mind
Raised By Chaffinches
Only when you've checked them out will you realise quite how impoverished your existence was without them in your life.
