  1. Very good day today. Really enjoyed Lime Cordiale and Margo Prices new albums. Another decent single from Easy Life almost passed under my radar too. Had a quick listen to Bugeye after @Quark recommendation and they’re right up my street, will be playing this one a lot more! 
    Not given the Beths a spin yet but after good reviews on here that’s lined up for tomorrow. Weekends are always better after a strong Friday of releases!

  2. DMA's, Lime Cordiale and Margo Price on my new album release radar for tomorrow. Have enjoyed singles from all 3 so looking forward to getting into these in the morning

    But clashes notwithstanding, who here would watch Billie headline?

    I doubt I would be there, she's not really for me but I wouldn't be surprised if she got the spot. I know Gaga's tour dates make Glastonbury look unlikely, unless there's potential for a few more European festival dates through July.

    My money is on Miles Kane or someone doing than album with them. 

    That’s a decent shout if they were to carry on, hard to replace a front man but think between him and serge it could work. First time I saw Kasabian was with Miles Kane supporting

    I think some are forgetting Caroline Flack and trial by media. To me it makes sense for them to have waited until the day before to announce it. He’s done an awful thing and has rightly been punished, but until now the media were none the wiser and regardless of what he’s done, if Kasabian had distanced themselves earlier he would’ve been hounded the whole time.

    Totally agree, this is the issue with people having too much information at their fingertips almost instantly in this day and age then feeling like they have to hound the person involved over social media. I don't condone what he has done, however he has been sentenced, lost his livelihood, and will always have this against his name whether he does come back or not. 

    Also I very much disagree with Matt42 that indie culture is to excuse such behaviour, ridiuclous that just by liking a type of music means you excuse abuse. We get it, you dont like indie music.

    Tbf to kasabian, it's not up to them to preempt the court hearing today. It makes sense why they were so curt in their statement. 

    Hopefully she is ok now and my thoughts are with her. Don't care about Tom now, hopefully his sentence will reflect him crime.

    Agree with this, not sure what else they could have said without actually saying what he had done, and there may be some laws around what can be made public with court cases. Re-reading the statement now it mentions his behaviour and doesn't wish him well and also doesn't allow comments which makes sense now. Like I said before what he's done is not ok and hope she is ok now, but I also feel sorry for the rest of the band having something they've been a part of for 20 years tarnished and possibly brought to an early end

  7. Sad to hear the reports about Tom Meighan, he’s had some dark times but what he’s reported to have done it obviously inexcusable. Really hope he can get the help he needs. Feel bad for the rest of the band being dragged into this and potentially putting an end to Kasabian

  8. Love the new Dream Wife album, nice follow up to the debut with a few slower tracks thrown in which works really well. Just seen they’re touring the UK April 2021, lovely stuff

    Jarvis pretty much ruled out any hopes of a reformation not long ago unfortunately, saying he thought their last reunion was the perfect send off and he sees no point in doing it again. I didn’t get a ticket for 2011 and missing that secret Park set is always gonna stick with me as the biggest loss from that. 

    Ah I didn’t know that! Gutting, one of the bands I love but have never managed to see live 

  10. Just watched Pulp on iplayer, would love to see them there again at some point although I know Jarv Is was on the line up this year so pulp could be a few years away. Just seen that Disco 2000 made its live debut in their 95 glasto headline set

    Anyone excited for next year yet?

    Watching all these sets remind me how amazing live music and festivals are, then I remember we won’t be getting any at all this summer. So ready for 2021

    Olympic Airways possibly Foals' best song (I'm not even sure why - it just seems to grab me) - went ruddy crackers at this point.

    Agree with this not sure what it is about it but one of my favourites live, something about the crowd shouting dis-ah-pee-ah

    I can see it, but only because of how quickly she became popular. Assuming she doesn't burn out, and there's no reason to suggest she will, she's doing everything right for a headliner slot. (dunno if I'd be there though...) 

    Yeah to be fair I wouldn’t be surprised if they offer it to her if her next release is as popular, think I’m probably being blinkered a bit by what I like but 2022 at the earliest.

    Not that gripped by this Billie Eilish set to be honest. What do you lot reckon? 

    I’m the same. Obviously she’s got some popular songs and it’s impressive considering her age but I’m not sure about her headlining. 

  15. The xx are a band I love but go for ages ‘forgetting’ about them, then being obsessed for a few weeks. This is first time I’ve heard them in a while and think I’ll go through an obsessed stage again now... Fiction into Shelter into Loud Places into On Hold is incredible. Love how their live show adds to the studio versions too

  16. Love the new one from Dream Wife, that and Hasta La Vista both a softer sound to their usual in-your-face approach so could be a very nicely balanced album. Only just seen this is released in 2 weeks which is exciting, and booked tickets to their tour next April so something to look forward to.

    @fightoffyour and @Noeliam put me onto Eliza and the Delusionals, you can probably add them to that list as well.

    Saw someone mention Saltwater Sun too recently who are on the Glastonbury emerging talent list. Another one that would fit nicely into that list

  18. New one from Dream Wife today bit more reserved that their other stuff but liked it. Hadn’t given Car Seat Headrest much of a chance before but after all the talk on here have the latest record a spin and was quite impressed

    Artists get paid less if a a play is due to a Spotify recommendation as opposed to a user choosing a song themselves, so make sure you add any songs you like from the daily mixes etc to your own playlists so any repeat plays pay at the higher rate.

    Thanks I wasn’t aware of this so that’s good to know 👍🏽
