I'd love to review the new Strike Anywhere but that would interfere with me masturbating furiously to Axe to Fall.

I've taken Relient K, Inhale Exhale, blessthefall, Noah and the Whale, Headlights and The Clientele under my incapable wing.

Please can somebody review the new Backstreet Boys. Preferably you-know-who.

Dammit. Hopefully we'll get some of these albums reviewed...but I don't think it will matter, because the front page will be full of Converge reviews as soon as a stream comes up (and a stream will come up, because it's Epitaph Records). At least, they'll be up there until the new BtBaM album comes out...at which point it will be full of BtBaM reviews.

Just look at the Sound-off section. There are no less than TWENTY-FOUR of them for the new album, which leaked TODAY, and the lowest non-zero rating is a lone 4.0.

Elitisim has been there since the begging of time. Nothing you could really do about it. Jesus was an elitist as was George Washington, Martin Luther King, Skeeter, and Susan B Anthony all....elistists.
