The formula he stumbled across is great for live shows, but not for personal album consumption. Yep, fair wack to him for doing his thing and making his dosh. I dont begrudge him any of that. I just live in hope regarding his out put.

I dont believe, personally, it an unrealistic thought process to think that the mind that came up with Experience and evolved musically into Jilted, could possibly at some further stage evolve its musical output yet again to produce something very unique and brilliant in its own right. Surely that spark still lies within?

Or is it ridiculous to think that the genius he showed may have the potential to strike again in some other direction? (not an expectation of course)

Im not looking for Experience mark 2, or Jilted mark 2. Im living in hope that Howllet will go on a personal, artistic, journey and invent something new that we have not heard the likes of before; that will make us take stock; stand up and intently listen............

I will of course listen to his new output, but if its a rehash of old styles I aint going to get too excited about it all.

If they play Glasto i will surely be there and will have a blast.............But I would love for LH to have a further cerebral impact on my musical listening............

As I say............live in hope

Actually gave up hope years ago. I'm always interested but only 6 albums in 23 years?

Yet he will piss and moan about the state of music these days and the impact of the likes of EDM etc etc but yet continues to follow his own formula.

Surely someone like him having a go at how stale music has become would be motivated to use his skills to invent something new, or is that too risky for him? Or does he have that ability still? Or was it all a fluke?

Ill never give up hope......................but, yeah, im not full of it...........

I think Babys Got a Temper really threw him. Made him aware of how easy it is to fuck up a legacy.

3 albums in 5 years

Babys Got a Temper.....

3 albums in 18 years

Well, 13 since Babys Got a Temper but 3 albums in 18 years is Kate Bush standard.

Personally I think its a grand set-list, but the lack of Out Of Space would leave me pretty disappointed/perplexed (unless of course he hit the crowd with some other early classic tunage, but thats so rare it basically doesnt happen)

OOS is such a crowd pleaser. No one goes to a Prodigy gig and doesnt sing along to that breakdown. But LH obviously doesnt view it in the same way he views the likes of Their Law, Poison etc etc. I always thought it was nailed on.........

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.
