A Mix Tape by Richard from Burnside Project | MP3s

Richard (aka Pocket) from Burnside Project sent out an MP3 mix tape for the holidays. I asked if he would mind presenting it as guest post on this site. He thought it was a good idea, so here's his letter followed by the mix....

Richard from Burnside Project

2005 was the year I became rather obsessed with rock and roll again (after a bit of a hiatus.) I soaked up the BritRock invasion, caught more live shows than usual and drove to Montreal to catch my first-ever U2 concert (wow).

These are my 15 favorite songs discovered in 2005. Not all were released in 2005, but you should all hear them anyway. I did some editing for your enjoyment. Throw it on your iPod or burn yourself a CD.

If you like what you hear, go buy the albums. Most of these artists need your support (ok, maybe not U2 but...)

Happy Holidays
- Richard.

hi there, i was wondering if you could send me the element song - not an opinion - to my email address. I have their EP "running upstairs in the dark" and have been a fan from the 1st day i heard them, i used to have the song "not an opinion" on my mp3 player but lost it.
I would be greatful if you could send it to me
Thanks,
Kris
