Let The Music Do The Talking

At the beginning of this year I vowed to focus on buying albums by bands that I really really dig, my favorites, rather than stuff I simply want. See, I'm a hardcore music fan and want far too much. So it was an issue of need versus greed, so to speak. Not to mention progression versus poverty!
