New Slaves album confirmed for next month. Looking forward to that.

Aye, they're a fun enough band and it's being produced by (and features on one song) Mike D  from the beastie boys so that should be pushed a level further. Was a bigger fan of Sugar Coated... than Satisfied so I'm curious. Saw them 6 times by accident last year so I've had a decent break now ahaha.

Hey all, been a bit busy since Glastonbury so have some catching up to do. Enjoyed the new Of Montreal album but for me they still haven't quite reached the heights of Hissing Fauna. Of the albums I've been listening to I've really been enjoying a band called King Buffalo which you can listen to through bandcamp - https://kingbuffalo.bandcamp.com/ Nothing particularly new about them but remind me of Kyuss or early QOTSA which isn't a bad thing.

Currently enjoying Hypercaffium Spazzinate by Descendents and Pool by Porches.

King GIzz are the best, man. Love em. And a phenomenal live act - the question remains of whether their Reading performance will be enough to satisfy me until they come back round (which at the current rate won't be long) or if I need to get tour tickets. Hmm...

A mate from hasnt heard of them, but is going to Green Man. I have strongly recommended them and I know he will love them. Awaiting his return to tell me how much he loved them.

Seeing the mighty Gizzard again on 9th Sept. I Can't wait.

Ah, that Manchester show? Huge line up on that, I'm quite jealous - if any of The Parrots, The Big Moon or The Wytches shows up as support for London I'll definitely have to get a ticket.

Get a ticket for london. Guaranteed to be great.

The manc gig is an "indoor festival". 2 rooms. bands + Dj's. King Gizzard headlining. (90 min set).

Got my ticket as an early bird... £13.50!! Probably the best value ticket Ive ever bought.

I'd love to see that video in 360 on Google Cardboard or an Oculus type thing.

Agreed.

Seeing them on 7th Sep @ Hare & Hounds (600 capacity). Really looking forward to seeing them play some Nonagon.

not a fan of the more disjointed direction they've gone in in recent years with a lot of the songs being solo tracks rather than joint efforts, but i'll give this a listen sometime soon. listened to Yeah So for the first time in absolute ages after seeing this album announced. Giving Up On Love is such a tune

They produce decent singles these days, but they've not done anything even close to Yeah So since. They've actually got better live with each record in my experience though.

Probably my highlight of this year, either of her shows that is, Kate Tempest released an album trailer and a tour today, definitely getting tickets for that. I was pretty late on to Everybody Down but I play it weekly these days, understand the criticism I see levelled at her at points but I think she's top.

Going to this as well, definitely going to be a night to remember! (Depending on how long I spend in the salisbury beforehand that is). There definitely seems to be some momentum behind this fuzz psych movement these days, I know they've all been around for a while but bands like Gizzard, Thee Oh Sees, Ty Segal, Wand, Meatbodies all seem to be getting bigger, hopefully fuzzy psych is next year's grime.

And hopefully grime is next year's nu-rave. It needs to go away

See you all at the King Gizzard pyramid slot, then.

    • 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.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
