Vintage Solid Steel: J. Rocc - Syndromes 2
Not much time to spare this time round, but don’t think this entry from the Vintage Steel treasure chest is any less special because of it.

Peanut Butter Wolf - Badd Santa’s Xmas After Party
Oh no he didn’t! Yes, Peanut Butter Wolf went and shamed us out of the building. As reported in an earlier post, the end of 2007 wasn’t going to be a kind year for Stones Throw fans expecting their festive podcast hit. With the Badd Santa CD going on sale at retail for, shock horror, [...]
