At long last we have the last show-proper of Kooba Radio’s 10 year reign as the premier place for unsigned bands on the Interweb.

This actually turned out to be a rather professional and business like episode in which we round up our 2012 Band of the Year competition. If you are looking tearful goodbyes and nostalgia, may I direct you to this, this or this show where there is plenty of emotion and finality on display.

And now back to business…

On this show we count down our 12 best bands from last year. As you may recall we put this dirty dozen to a public vote and our listeners hath spoken.

Remember, no one involved in the recording apart from Stat Master Alex knows the results so the tension is palpable.

Tune in to find out who won! Oh the drama!
