New Music November: Introduction

I've been thinking a lot lately about how there's really a profound narrowness to my taste, it's not that I don't listen to a lot of different stuff, but I have some distinct favourites and they take precedent over absolutely everything else. Particularly in terms of music I blog about, it's pretty much all noise or avant-garde shit. So with November about to start, I hit up JB with a little challenge.

During this coming month, all reviews posted here will be of albums the two of us have never heard before, from genres we aren't familiar with. We will both select nine albums, give full listens, and write an article about each, on November 30th, the two of us will exchange albums for the tenth selection, each reviewing something only the other knows well. It might be a catastrophic failure, but it's a hell of a way to maintain consistent activity on here, challenge ourselves as writers, excite our audience with totally off the wall shit and possibly even find some new favourite artists.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to New Music November.
