It’s time to let you, dear readers, decide which of the great Bands of the Week from January will be the 2nd ever Band of the Month. I’m glad it’s not up to me…

The next band, MAKAR, had come to our attention some time back and their song, I Hate My Job played constantly on the MP3 player of my mind. The bands latest Funeral Genius is pure… eh-um dare I? genius. Here’s a live performance from the show they did on my birthday. How nice of them… Here is their Band of the Week page
