Right I nabbed this idea from somebody else on another site so yeah! :lol: :oops:

As a New Years resolution I have decided I'm going to try and listen to a new album every other day or so.

So all you do is suggest some albums for me to hear and I'll check them, I can't guarantee I can listen to one every single day as I do have a life! :lol: :wink:

I'll sieve through your suggestions and pick out the ones I have not heard and will listen to them in order of suggested date. I'll make a little review for each album I listen to, it'd be nice to hear your thoughts on the albums too.

Go ahead, hit me. :D

If you liked "Be OK" then you'll probably like Everybody, Men Of Snow is the best though, it's stunning!
