I am a massive fan of Rolling Stone Magazine. Even more so now that they’ve featured the BLK JKS in their latest feature entitled: Artist to Watch 2009: BLK JKS .
I have blogged about this rocking band before and it’s fantastic to see that they are still going from strength to strength globally.
Here’s a little titbit from the article but let’s not give too much away:
It’s Saturday night at a Brooklyn recording studio, and BLK JKS are frustrated. The South African psych-rockers are recording a song for the 2010 World Cup, to be hosted by their home country — an update of an old Johannesburg street chant called “Zol After Zol.” (“Zol” is slang for spliff.) They’ve been tinkering with it for hours, but something still isn’t right. “This bassline,” frowns drummer Tshepang Ramoba, adjusting the pile of dreadlocks atop his head. “It’s kind of, like, very cheesy.”
Mpumi Mcata, the group’s lead guitarist, nods. “It’s not necessarily bad,” he says, taking care not to offend bassist Molefi Makananise. “It’s just, you know … traditional.”
You can head over to the article to get a sneak peak at one of their songs and a great article on the band.

Thanks for the suggestions you have discussed here. In addition, I believe there are numerous factors that keep your insurance premium lower. One is, to take into account buying autos that are inside good directory of car insurance providers. Cars which are expensive tend to be more at risk of being stolen. Aside from that insurance coverage is also based on the value of your automobile, so the more expensive it is, then the higher the premium you pay.
