Antony finally makes the cover of a major US publication. Magnet's year end wrap up is on newsstands now. Also available is Spin, with the Killers on the cover. They were named Band Of The Year by the mag, which is strange only because they usually are a little more on the ball in terms of newer bands. It must be due to Ultra leaving the publication. Brandon and Co. have been nominated for three grammy awards. Oh and Ps. I really dislike Spin's new format. It's almost unreadable.

For The Records has news and an approximate time frame for the Belle And Sebastian/New Pornographers tour.

Now Magazine and EYE Weekly! have published their year end lists.

I have been diligently working on my year end lists, I'm almost done, check back within the next couple days for the conclusion of my Top 25 Albums of 2005, Top 15 Singles of 2005, and Top 5 concerts of 2005 (in and around Toronto).

Via Brooklyn Vegan, check DoCopenhagen's list of top 50 music videos of 2005. And you can watch all 50 on the site. My pics on his list would include: The Decemberists, Antony and the Johnsons, CocoRosie, Arcade Fire and Tom Vek.

OH! And according to the Arts & Crafts site, Stars are playing on Febuary 18th at Winterlude in Ottawa.

I guess that's it.
Peace out MothaTuckers.
