We've bloody gone and done it again - another year is almost in the books and so it's time to review the standout art and artistes of 2025.
Heroes and villains, songs and albums, and plenty more besides go under the critical spotlight, including a category that almost got lost to miscommunication.
Dave Hanratty (the guilty party on that aforementioned communication snafu) and Sonic Architect Adam (entirely innocent) are joined in studio by the all-star team of Fionnuala Jones, Richard Chambers, and Craig Fitzpatrick.
Expect plenty of spirited disagreements, mostly friendly debates, and goodwill to all mankind.
...honk.
