And what is a Konstanti-Christmas comprised of, you ask? Well, it's a triple CD compilation of the 2005, that's what! The set will look roughly like this with the best track culled from each of the following album and probably more besides.

Disc 1) The Silent League, The Boy Least Likely To, Low, Psapp, The Superimposers, Entrance, Boom Bip, Arcade Fire, Sam Prekop, Mark Mulcahy, King Creosote, The National, Caribou, Jose Gonzalez, Antony & The Johnsons, Fog.

Disc 2) Teenage Fanclub, Smog, The Go-Betweens, Sons and Daughters, Minotaur Shock, Laura Cantrell, Mek Obaam, The White Stripes, Brakes, Cagedbaby, The Shortwave Set, Clor, Sufjan Stevens, Two Gallants, Field Music.

Disc 3) Viarosa, Holopaw, The Clientele, The Rakes, Vanessa & The O's, Cocorosie, King Creosote, Sebastien Tellier, The Spinto Band, Boards of Canada, Wolf Parade, Magnetophone, Richard Swift, Lindstrom and Prins Thomas, Holly Throsby.

I'll only be making two copies this weekend, one of which is spoken for, the other of which you can win by answering the following question. The closest to my ranking order wins the CD's. Therefore if you want to win you try to guess how I would order them.

Rank the following albums, 1. being top, 8 being bottom.

Beatles, The - Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
Nirvana - In Uetro
Orange Juice - Ostrich Churchyard
Pixies - Surfer Rosa
Radiohead - Kid A
Smiths, The - Meat Is Murder
Suede - Suede
Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix

One entry per poster please. If someone gets all 8 in order they automatically win the CD's. If not the poster that gets the most positions correct wins.

Send the entries to my PM and I'll post here how many you got correct.

One bid for the CD's so far.

I'm afraid though Moxie got a grand score of 0.

Hey, you might still win if no one else gives a shit!

LEADERBOARD

1. Moxie - 0
