How is the new stuff live? I've seen them twice before it came out, but it never really grabbed me in the same way YAWIAM did.

I think it has the disadvantage of not being a cult classic that had ten years to impact.

Really well received live though. Found it just melded effortlessly with the old stuff.

They've just announced this date on 28th June in Brighton... http://www.seetickets.com/Event/death-from-above-1979/concorde-2/865153

In Netherlands on 26th so possible spot on the JP for Sat 27th could be likely?

They are the Kanye sub! Imagine the deckchairs and picnic blankets getting a blast of If We Don't Make It We'll Fake It or You're Lovely But You Got Lots Of Problems.

I might see them - if I'm in need of a nostalgia hit I'll go see them, stand at the back and be wistful about not being 16 any more.

I tried to listen to their latest album, but I turned it off half way through and put on Heads Up instead.

Unsurprisingly, given my avatar, I'm over the moon at this. The Physical World blew me away with its quality given I had misgivings about it before it came out. Can't wait :D

I'm with you on this. I thought the new album was spectacular. Can't wait for this.

Give their debut album "You're a Woman, I'm a Machine" a go. They also have an EP, and one newer album so there's not a lot to catch up on.

Cheers for that

    • Tonight was a disgrace. There wasn't *that* much rain, and it wasn’t *that* windy. A festival of this size should be able to withstand some adverse weather without it bringing the whole circus to a standstill. And if it is true that part of a speaker on the Revolut stage fell…   As for the communication - announcing Massive Attack were playing at 12:30 and then nothing for over an hour while people waited in the rain. It’s laughable it really is.   If I said I’ll never come back again I’d be lying. The shambles of Barcelona 2022 and the disgrace of Madrid 2023 didn’t stop me, so this probably won’t either.   This festival gets so much wrong, but it is always saved by having such killer line-ups. It’s just a shame it treats the fans/customers/consumers like animals. Compare it to somewhere like Glastonbury and it’s worlds apart.
    • Yeah, I admit that a small part of me felt relieved when they announced that MA are canceled.. But on the positive side- got to see Florence Road afterall, and they were great
    • Glad I could take the €3 bus to Playa Catalunya! Hope y'all warm and dry up.
    • Taxi mafia running their usual scam.
