Sorry to hear. You should listen to grimes instead. She's infinity better and there's only one letter different so it'd be an easy changeover

This doesn't make a whole lot of sense because a genre and an artist's name sounding similar isn't really indicative of their music sounding similar.

That's like me saying you should change your name to Jonodildo. Would make no sense to do so.

Poor logic. You should try listening to Animal Collective

Yeah it's quite good. Not hitting their best but not showing themselves up either. Good to hear them again after so much time anyway. Hope they play next year's do.

I was listening to Whitney's Light Upon the Lake this afternoon and just thought that I was expecting it to be a massive summer album when I first listened and it never really landed like that. Urgent appeal to eFesters: while it's still summer for the next few weeks, if you're going for a drive or a picnic then put that album on your aux/speakers and fall in love yo.

Nearing the end of this album, thanks for the recommendation. Something I probably wouldn't have picked up on but have thoroughly enjoyed. Will be getting a few more plays I'm sure.

I'd completely missed this one, giving it a listen now.  Good recommendation!

New Ryley Walker out today, really looking forward to it, the last one was asolutely superb. Also interested in giving Lisa Hannigan's new one a go.

Been enjoying the latest Oh Sees album this week. Not what I usually listen to but it's pretty good, especially the last song. Only thing that fucks me off about it is that it's 45rpm so I have to fuck about with my record player

Just getting on this now. Loved the last album and a great gig when I saw him in Dublin. Couple of beauties on the newie.

Me too. 

It got a really odd review in the Guardian FWIW. *

 

*More a comment / review on the review than the LP, I mean.

Lovely stuff. The place where mine and the missus musical tastes meet, I think.

Nice :)

Put me in mind of this guy when listening. An interesting character, sadly no longer with us.

      I'm definitely not camping 🙂.  My 17 year old Daughter and her friends are there 3 days and commuting back to Sheffield each day as didn't want to camp .  I am taking and picking up the Saturday so thought I may as well get a ticket as love Fontaines DC - need to do a lot of research on the other acts though to fill my day.    I walked through the camp site other year the day Arctic Monkeys played and it was like a War Zone.  My Son has camped a couple of times but didn't fancy my Daughter staying over.

      Not at all impressed with Polanski saying "noone should be barred from public life" wrt the Tory neo-nazi. I really don't think "no nazis in politics" should be an excessive standard.

      Top Ten ‘Must See’ Acts

      Dug into Milkweed some more and this was a brilliant suggestion. Thank you 🙂   This will come as no surprise, but I have been told that there are some band substitutions to come.

      2027 Headliners

      By incident · Posted

      Yeah, I think it's important to differentiate between a stage that's just a platform for the artist to walk on (which can be assembled fairly quickly and without too much difficulty), and the custom staging that you get in big productions where there's a whole world underneath.   Using the Eras tour as an example the stage extending out into the stadium field has all sorts - lifts that go up or down - down most importantly as this allows performers to enter or to leave the stage as needed. There's passageways to get from one part of the stage to another. There's what are effectively dressing rooms set aside for costume changes. There's spare instruments (and techs to look after them) so if something goes wrong above they can be swapped out in the space of seconds. There's even a track and dolly system running the full length of the stage so that Taylor can be moved from one end to the other faster than she'd be able to walk.   I don't know the specifics of the Madonna tour to the same degree but my understanding is that a lot of the same techniques are used.
