I spent a year as content editor for another site but quit because I was getting messed around with money. I checked The Sound Of Confusion's stats and it was getting 10,000 hits a month after a year with nothing reviewed, so I thought I might as well carry on. I kind of wish I hadn't because I'm getting millions of emails asking me to review stuff and it's far, far more than I can do. Not sure whether to carry on or not to be honest. I'm a month behind with everything anyway -that Fat White Family track was released in November...
