i always end up miles away
Following the American, Canadian, and UK lists, A Reminder has the results of the Top Bands in Australia Poll. Sean managed to get a hold of about twenty Aussies, with Augie March coming out on top.
Stereogum has (most of) the results of their 2005 reader's poll up.
The Straight has more info about the Lamplighter no longer hosting touring bands.
According to Roddy Woomble's band diary, he will release a solo effort next year with Idlewild putting out an album as well. The singer-songwriter's folkier leanings will be contained on the former, with the band putting out an "Idlewild rock beast." If this marks a return to the more untamed Idlewild of yore, I'm pretty psyched.
Merry Christmas (War is Over... if you want it). Hope Santa is good to you tomorrow.

Some exciting Broken Social Scene news via Broken Socialite. An upcoming remix/b-side album is due from everyone's favourite collective in the new year. They're apparently shooting for a January release, but with BSS, that probably means Summer. Regardless of when it's released, the potential tracklist looks stellar. "Deathcock" is pegged to finally get widespread release, and one of my personal favourite Scene tunes, "New Country," may finally see an official release as well.
