Mid Way through an EGG eating Long Weekender

Does anyone else find jumbo long weekend's confusing, like today what day is it, after two days off and into the third and with an empty street outside on Pine Street, Chippendale one could almost think it's the end of the world (Avenger and Battleships style - side point - why do all the major action blockbusters of 2012 have Earth exploding and having major cities being destroyed by random objects from here and outer space) or better the third day of the Easter JUMBO weekend.

With streets empty, Coles yesterday packed, people chilled out or in a chocolate trance, Easter is well and truly here.

So today it's Easter movie Number 2:



Full review coming soon, and the full EGG-CELENT 20 TUNES of the week!

And now for something special and VERY exciting, last year I had the BLOG's album of the year taken out by Goyte and the year before Washington, this year it's on again and with some BIG albums already landing and coming very soon new albums from Kate Miller Heidke, Garbage, Gossip, Santigold and more it's time for this years first nomination and no it's NOT Lana Del Ray (However the album is growing on me).

So without further ado, what is the year's first album of the year nod:



Yes those boys from Adelaide are BACK and in a BIG way, first off with the massive single "I Love it" featuring the dreamy SIA and now with their new song tackling rednecks head on "Speaking in Tongues" the Hilltop Hoods are here to stay.

Their new album is an Aussie Hip Hop Masterpiece and a whole lot of hype and love is deserved for this mighty fine new release from the boys from Adelaide.

The Hilltop Hoods have kept up with the times and showed in 2012 they are still close to the top if not at the top of the Aussie hip hop scene. Which has continued to grow with newcomers like 360 killing it at present.

Anyway the first BLOG album of the year nomination goes to the Hilltop Hoods for their excellent 2012 release "Drinking From the Sun".

Now here is another taste of why this album is so tip top!
