Universal Music Group is taking out ads in magazines geared toward men of the cloth in hopes that they’ll find a choir who will be up to the task of recording albums of Gregorian chants. The ads are running in papers like The Catholic Times, The Church Times, The Catholic Herald, The Tablet, and The Universe, and interested parties can send in audition tapes to UMG until the end of February or, presumably, the minute that the involved A & R reps are struck by some sort of divine intervention. Universal’s managing director for classics and jazz is saying that UMG is going on this search because the record company wants to “reach singers from outside the X Factor generation.” Aw, does this mean that the world won’t be subjected to Clash Of The Gregorian Choirs? I was really hoping that Enigma would come out of hiding to be a guest judge on it. [Press Association / Ad text via Nothing To Do With Arbroath]

I would comment, but I’m late for Vespers.
I was just having a conversation last week on the link between Enigma and clove cigarettes.
What IS the link? We must know!
Perhaps not coincidentally I’m just now reading The Stripping of the Altars by Iain Duffy. Nothing about major labels, though.
We just found correlation, not causation.
V. understandable.
So would this X Factor generation be the original team led by Cyclops, the Peter David revamp with Havok in charge, or the current series with Jamie Madrox?
Oh wait, wrong X-Factor…
