Where's AM come from? Is their a sniff of a new album? If not I can't see them touring.

the new album is fantastic imo, can understand some of the criticism it is getting although the main point i'm seeing is that there is too much filler, The End and Streaming are the only two tracks i would label as filler and every other song on the album is uniquely brilliant in its own way.. would even go as far to say this is the best album i've heard in a VERY long time. Disappointed i won't be seeing them in August like planned because i'm so excited to see these songs live especially Shiny Collarbone and What Should I Say (if they perform them live) so i would be fully on board to have them back again at R&L
Sorry if I've gone back a few topics, but came on here to see what people thought of the new album due its devided reviews.
Personally, I really like it - I would say you can tell it's been written whilst on tour the last couple years, hence "notes" and the mixeup of genres was confusing at first, more like a mixtape but I'm getting used to that now
They've said after this tour they'll go on a hiatus, so possibly Glasto 2022 before disappearing
Even though I do like Notes and get the concept is supposed to be a mashup of ideas, I do hope album no. 5 has a more focused sound/ through line like the last 3, proved that sound could be anything now though
What do others think of it?

Would rate a lot but slowthai needs to be careful in a MAN band with his NMEs shirade

New Neck Deep album July 24.
Are there any slots available they'd slot into?
-
New Gorillaz song is a banger, they'd be great RnL headliners

wolf alice would be a great edition to the saturday lineup, hopefully they get them booked for 3rd down.
They were excellent when they headlined truck last year
Would be great, but would they clash with Fontaines D.C?

1996 Headliners - RATM (2 albums), Black Grape (1 Album), Stone Roses (2 Albums)! There's probably been headliners with a less total?
How does Stormzy compare to Roses in terms of popularity in both time frames? Interesting that grime seems to be what brit pop was in the 80s-90s to kids (and older, but generally) these days
Personally, I love home made british music being at the top of our charts

Amazing riff, awful lyrics. Great live tho.
Remember someone earlier on the forum shuddering at the thought of hearing it ringing out on the main stage....;)
Do we think there will be an act between Courteeners and Run The Jewels?
Doubt it, possible one between Slowthai and RTJ

It’s very strange, Courteeners before Rage blows my mind. Maybe they assume that people like myself will purely buy tickets for Rage?
Give me a run of IDLES > BFMV > Limp Bizkit > Rage or something like that, even if I don’t like IDLES and Bizkit (the latter would be mad just for the atmosphere though).
On a side note, that run of Frank Carter > ADTR > Foo’s is something I think about everyday. Unreal.
Slowthai - IDLES - RTJ - Bizkit would have been great too and more varied
-
Yeah seems everyone feels same as me, wondered if I wasn't hearing something but ah well, hopefully the albums more guitar based
-
What do people think about Biffy Clyro's new song? Not a fan personally.
-
Loathe's album is great, looking forward to seeing them at Download. Could they feature at Leeds or are they too heavy for this year?
-
J.I.D from that Lollapalooza lineup please.

What’s this new 1975 thing about then
I think they're teasing the new single they've been playing on tour

george ezra would be an amazing headliner for the record. saw him in manchester and he’s absolutely sensational. such a good laugh. capaldi would be shite, saw him at tramlines and it was 45 mins of ballads
I've only heard a few capaldi singles, but it still completely baffles me how different he is to his music. If only his music sounded half as fun
Also, skepta vs dave, I'd say skepta would be the better booking right now because he has so many bangers (enough to fill an hour easily), was supposed to play a couple years back and Dave played last year so it wouldn't be all that exciting imo.
-
Went to The 1975 last night in Nottingham, their new songs are sounding great. "If you're too shy (let me know)" is a banger, can see that being th next single.

More context for the Slowthai thing

fellas my friends are refusing to get an early bird but i really want one because i don’t wanna be camping next to a toilet lmfao
what do
Take the rough with the smooth, look at it his way; first dibs when you need a shit
Seriously though, reading or leeds? If leeds you'll be find if you get there pretty early on the Thursday.
I think you can get in at something stupid like 2am as well?

Off topic, but anyone listened to Tame Impala's new album yet?
Thoughts on them headlining 2021?
-
If the 1xtra stage does finish before main stage on the Stormzy day it will be interesting to see how many people go see Denzel Curry over Migos

Edit: I realise you mean the US tour now, oops

I don't think it was insulting. She was nowhere near big enough to coheadline when FR booked her. No one expected her popularity would grow so much (and in such short time).
Yep and some huge artists have played in there before they get too big like Arctic Monkeys, Muse, kasabian, primal scream, the 1975, etc.
I think in general it's harder to book festivals these days because of the rate artists popularity increases on the internet
2021 Lineup
in Reading & Leeds Festivals

Really great album, they seem to age like fine wine.
Between that, Code Orange's Underneath and Freddie Gibbs' Alfredo for AOTY for me atm, and can't see that becoming a premature take - although, RTJ4 is great timing too.
