BBC Great John Peel Passed away on Monday (25 Oct 04). Living in Canada, I was never lucky enough to hear his show first hand, but it isn't hard to recognize his contributions to rock and roll. Mp3 blog, Music for Robots has a nice tribute and a link to John Peel's reported favorite song, the Undertones "Teenage Kicks"

Well, I guess it's cool to be anti-bush. Following in the steps of "Fahrenheit 911", The rock against bush compilations and Greenday's "American Idiot", a new video by Eminem. Pitchfork has a review and a link to the video "Mosh"
