the lotd thanatotic thirty 2010: 30-19
This week:
Thanatos (n): an ancient Greek personification of death. Related forms - Thanatotic (adj).
As another year reaches the end of its own march of Thanatos, Left Of The Dial presents the first instalment of its torturously alliterative answer to John Peel's Festive Fifty - the Thanatotic Thirty, a three-part rundown of the thirty finest albums of 2010. We're covering 30-19 this week, and without wanting to give anything away, some of the stuff we're playing should give you some indication of just how good a year it's been: any other year, it certainly wouldn't be languishing in the lower depths like this. Leave your own 30-19s or have a guess at what ours'll be before Sunday's show, either on the show Facebook page or on the Subcity message board.
