Hello Tumblr followers!

So it has been a ridiculously long time since I posted anything to this blog and for this I apologise. My excuse? Well, I managed to secure myself a full time job (as an SEO copywriter) with SEO and web design agency Fresh Egg back in October 2010, located in Worthing on the UK’s south coast. Although I love my new role, it does mean that I now spend the majority of my time writing about an endless list of topics…but rarely music!   

I am hoping to return to reviewing albums and live shows (including Deftones’ Reading Festival warm up show in August!) ASAP but in the meantime, you might be interested to read the following post I recently wrote for website Moon and Back Music; “But It’s Cheaper Online!: The High Street Price Point Of Music.” The articlediscusses why an increasing number of consumers are leaving the high street and turning to the internet to acquire new music in the form of CDs – yes, many of us still buy music in this physical format despite what some industry types would have you believe! 

I will also be posting again later on today with an article discussing whether or not the age of free music - perpetuated by the internet - is soon to come to end.
