Advantages: Quality Punk Music Disadvantages: None
Finland?s finest punk export, Wasted, return with a 29-track compilation of 7? material released between 1998 and 2001. Out on the Boss Tuneage label, Here We GoAgain captures the band as they were between the abovementioned dates and reminds us of the set standard for the new album when it finally arrives.
Wasted started life in Joensuu in late 1996 and, eight years on, are fast becoming a recognised force in the punk genre. Finland rarely figures when people think of Europe, let alone within the punk scene. Located away from most people?s blinkered radar systems, Finland?s prime exports include Formula 1 drivers and footballers but away from this you?d be hard pushed to name anyone else of any importance. If you are going to add anyone else to that list? make it Wasted.

Its just like the pop up tents that you get, but with rods to hold its shape and a fold up mattress for the bottom. I've used it many times and never had a problem. I thought that perhaps once my daughter started rolling or walking it would be hard but its comfy so she just goes to ...
Advantages: kitsch entertainment Disadvantages: panellists trying to hard to outnasty 'Nasty Nigel'
Ah, just what we need from ITV Primetime. Another talent show in a dressing of 'excitement' and 'tension'. 'Pop Idol' is the latest in a series of 'Popstars' clones, which has now given us 'Soapstars' and 'Model Behaviour'. The show gives a forum for all shapes, sizes and races to show off their tonsil talents, before the public inevitably chooses a skinny white girl to receive a recording contract.
The first episode screened last night showed the Manchester audition. There were tears of disappointment: 'I'm not going to cry' one contestant said as she spontaneously sobbed onto the carpet. Perhaps more funny was the comedy wannabe who's image was 'cool' according to Dr. Fox, (which means that either the Capital Radio DJ knows something we don't about the Max Headroom revival, or it really is true that he stopped reading ...
