British British British to the Core
For nigh on 60 years, Britain has been absorbing American musical culture, repackaging it, and sending it back. The US may have pioneered rock'n'roll, punk, and folk, but we've polished them into superior products. And, in our efforts to ape and improve Americana, we have produced some true British gems, records that embody our national character and while painting a "u" into the 'color' of pop...

Track:And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda
For all those of generations past, past, present and future who sacrifice their lives so selflessly so that we may enjoy the simplest pleasures and freedoms. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

The Seven Types of Side-Project
The past few years have seen a slew of side projects, with some of our favourite band members divorcing themselves from the day job in order to explore new musical avenues. Now, these new avenues can be rewarding, they can be awful, and some can be downright disturbing. But what motivates artists to head in a new direction? For your education and delectation, Joxley hereby presents his Patented G

So

That shout into the internet abyss, that veil of anonymity. It is the perfect place to throw your thoughts when the clock rings through those early numbers and the evening's alcohol slowly subsides. That time when the humdrum of the day disappe...

Evidently that has not transpired, and here I am back in your sordid world (ah, you know I love you really). Yet my disappearance from MOG was simply the final act in what had been a long spiral. Somewhere along the road I thi...

I'm Back, I'm Weak, I'm toxic, and... I'm Horny
So I tried to leave the MOG. I tried to say goodbye and leave it all behind. But I couldn't. Perhaps I'm too pathetic to stick to anything, even inaction. Or perhaps everybody needs an outlet. Anyway, its been three months. A lot has happened, holidays, expeditions of self discover and the commencement of that bizarre sophomore year (will I hit a slump, who knows?). But here I am. Back amongst ...

And so it came and went. The Mogiversary. Three years. Where once I would mark them off month by month, this one faded into obscurity. Nothing worth noting, nothing to say. I guess the spark has gone. That's not to say I didn't try. Those late nights, the days I'd check in on you everyday, every hour, just to see how things were going, those times I couldn't tear myself away. But that was a lon...

Question...
How do you turn a duck into a soul singer? Put it in a microwave until its bill withers.
