Leaked My Arse

Over the past couple of years I have been seeing the same term banded around prior to the official release date of an album, "leaked", and it bugs me because if you had an ounce of common sense, you would click that it's just a tired old marketing ploy.

The End Of The World Compilation CD

Whether you believe the world is due to end on 21st December 2012 or not, it's another excuse to have a bit of fun (what with pubs having "End of the World Sales" etc...). So to join in with this fun, I've made a nice little "mock" CD compilation for the end of the world - I should've called it "Now That's What I Call The End Of The World", but I don't want a shit load of lawyer standing outside my house...
