  1. Not just mates, Charli’s boyfriend is George Daniel! (and I’ve not heard anything unfortunately @NoBuses)
  2. They’re not performing so were probably not going to win anyway, other than perhaps Best Rock/Alt which is fan voted.
  3. Strangely, 6Music have playlisted 'Sculptures' while Radio 1 have playlisted 'Hello You' this week.
  4. UK 2022 end of year album chart: The Car - #17 Special - Not in the Top 100 (and released about 3 months earlier) First week sales: The Car - 119,016 Special - 5,245 Quite a difference there!
  5. Matty announces a lot of projects that never happen tbf. For what it’s worth, I’ve heard that they’re doing Finsbury this summer.
  6. Not the bigger arenas though. I don't think Foals have ever played the O2, let alone sell out two nights there.
  7. I didn't say they were! But they did have a lot in 2017/18 - 'Walk on Water' was definitely a Hottest Record too.
  8. Thirty Seconds to Mars were there in 2018, and they did give the singles from ‘America’ a lot of airplay at the time. and Florence still gets heavily supported by R1 too.
  9. That’s not true. Both ‘Mirrorball’ and ‘Body Paint’ made the A-list, with the latter there for around 8 weeks. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=258663&hl=Playlist And on the album release week they even playlisted ‘Tracks from The Car’, where they played a variety of the album tracks for a week.
  10. AM won’t be there, but songs from their new album did receive a lot of R1 airplay last year.l tbf.
  11. Radio 1's head of music confirms in this article that The 1975 are headlining: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/29/are-bands-dead-how-solo-stars-took-over-the-charts
  12. Yes, one look at the song’s lyrics and it’s certainly an anti-Trump, Kanye etc song. He shouldn’t have done it, however, but it’s clear the intention is to call Kanye a Nazi.
  13. I've never been there, but from the iPlayer coverage it always looks like the King Tut's stage is reasonably small. It'll be absolutely rammed there for The Wombats, perhaps even a safety issue?
  14. And it's the same slot that Maximo Park were in last year! (I imagine being Scottish gives LF System a bit of a boost up the lineup)
  15. Yeah that’s bizarrely low for The Wombats… lower than Cat Burns?
  16. It looks like Panic at the Disco won’t be headlining again anytime soon…

    2024 Headliners

    For what it’s worth, the metal album was Dave Grohl solo as opposed to the Foo Fighters.
  18. I can’t see Yungblud headlining in say, 15 years from now, but I really can see The 1975 being a “legacy” headliner by that point.
  19. Yeah that I'd certainly agree with. I think it's partially because I didn't really start listening to them until around 2018, and by that point so many bands were trying/had tried to replicate their 2013 sound (LANY, COIN, The Band Camino etc) that it became quite stale to me.
  20. It is, although it generally seems to be down to nostalgia than anything. I love them, but I find their debut album to be by far their weakest.
  21. I don’t think it’s intended as an EP, as they have an album out soon. These days artists just tag previous singles underneath their new ones to boost the streams up.

    BRITs 2023

    I feel like if 'Afraid To Feel' was in contention for Best Single, LF System would be nominated for Best Dance Act too (which Eliza is). Just a thought though!
  23. No, they’ve done Bournemouth, Brighton and Exeter so far. I get why it’s the O2 that had the guest though, the biggest show on tours often do.

    BRITs 2023

    I imagine so. She didn’t release anything else last year so there’s not much to judge her on. I suppose there’s touring as well, but it always seems to be artists who release music that get nominated. (And it’s not something that most voters will have seen)
