I've just realised what other recent album A Moon Shaped Pool reminds me of: Vulnicura.

They're both essentially breakup albums that bring artists in danger of becoming slightly too unrelatable back down to earth and remind you of what it is they do best.

So now bjork and thom are single and they're good friends we should so totally start Project Bjork Yorke and try to set them up

Resident Advisor thought similar

Think that looks like not much space for a string section. If anything more interesting to see how they'll emulate these songs without one. 

That was my first thought, was hoping it would happen but worried bits may be recorded now

Question for Neil - would it be possible to set your Checkpage site to also monitor the Roundhouse and Waste ticket pages?

yep

But someone active on checkpage would have to give me the URlL.

thanks ... tho as you don't appear to be active on checkpage there's no point in me adding them. If you are, please email [email protected] with your checkpage login details.

Also wondering whether it makes to add the Seetickets pages, even though they and G&T are the same company.

I doubt there's any point, as far as I'm aware from convos I've had with See about a white label site, iG&T is merely a different front end to the same backend system, and if one changes so should the other.

So.... the Burn The Witch / Spectre 7" release direct to ebay went well.....

They should have released it normally. It's a nice idea to have a limited release, but in 2016 it's been proven time and again to not work. They have just disappointed their fans by releasing it the way they have.

This is the one thing that bugs me. Same goes with you didn't get a download copy when you brought the physical. Why not just release it all at the same time?

Apart from appealing to "collectors" and more pertinently, ebay scum, what is the exact point of it being so strictly limited?

A non-limited release would have been better all round, for everyone concerned. Radiohead, the indie stores, the fans. Sometimes you have to wonder if anyone in the band / mamagement / label has a clue how things work in the real world.

Sigh.

They would actually make more money if they did a non-limited release and it would screw over their fans. So yeah, no idea why they wouldn't do it.

I think they do. They just want to be 'radiohead' eg the In Raindows pay scheme and how quickly they released King of Limbs etc

    • To be fair @Superscally barely mentions the running thing. Very quiet about it 😘
    • I guess we'll just have to wait until videos of the shows go up, but the fact that the standing is also greyed out still suggests to me that those sections just sold out out before the others and a blue block just be like 3 tickets left, it's still not concrete proof they never went on sale and if they were never on sale why would they not make it even, if 414 wasn't on sale then you'd think 409 wouldn't be either   
    • Selfish, but I've done the 2 days I'm there.. i'll try to do the rest through the day but might get beaten to it as it's editable....    https://clashfinder.com/s/ape2026/
    • I don’t think the festival automatically ‘need’ to have a female headliner if you have strong female headliners on the Other Stage (which I reckon will be Rosalia and Phoebe Bridgers), perhaps a female legend (praying for Annie, will take Cher), and a few female/mix gendered subs on the Pyramid (maybe London Grammar, The xx). From what I’ve seen of Sabrina, her team prioritises the pay day and I think she will be doing Wembley over Glasto weekend.   One thing I’ve noticed is a lot of the suggestions would be first time headliners and I can’t work out when the last time was that the festival had three artists top the bill that hadn’t topped it before? It seems to be something they like to do to make sure they have a ‘safe’ headliner that will land well with the masses. Plenty of names in that hat that could step back up next summer and should/could be about: Billie Eilish, Adele, Foo Fighters, The Cure, Radiohead, U2…hell, if Beyoncé is really planning to release a ‘rock n roll’ album to complete her Renaissance trilogy, Glastonbury would be a great place to ‘kick off’ that campaign for her.   And there’s always the Rihanna rumour. Her husband (I think) said this week she’s in the studio.
    • And all (or all but one) of the secret sets repeats though?
