Music blogs are waking up from their Xmas/New Year slumbers. Current highlights…
– Simon Reynolds’ albums of the year including some rare affection for Britrap (!) and agreeable discussion of most other stuff.
– Marcello Carlin nailing the Hornbyisation of critics’ 2002 lookbacks and bringing us the good news about Tatu.
– Andy Kellman‘s ongoing 2002 roundup (entirely UN-Hornby!)
– Spizzazz on the UK Top Twenty, always a must-read though some new songs for them to write about would be nice.
– and No Rock N Roll Fun is as bogglingly comprehensive as ever.
