Q: Is our bloggers sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy headed, feverish and resting?

A: Yeah, I'm sick. Sorry no bloggy, etc. etc. etc. If you're in the neighborhood, feel free to bring me a couple of these.

In happier news, Calico Jak's Leaked Album Alert is like totally famous, now that it's As Seen On Idolator.

(Usually, Mr. Jak does not announce crap-quality leaks, but he made an exception for low-bit-rate Björk, because even pirates are vulnerable to peer pressure. Damn you, Denton.)


Speaking of hot leak news, Idolator also has samples of the new Elliott Smith rarities collection and (!) the White Stripes' Icky Thump.

GET EXCITED: Icky Thump drops on June 19th. Album art via The Modern Age:
