Dude, Brett, you've been posting here for a while, just say 'hi' and that the latest issue is up! Maybe a few top articles and things but you don't need to go all out.

Not really sure...I came along about a year after its inception and its always been that way. Must be to make it stand out, I guess.

On the main site page, lower right hand corner, there is an MP3 and Video for M83' "Don't Save Us From the Flames."
If you dig through the album reviews, there are two older albums that have reviews, The Standard and The Sadies.
