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.

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.

    • 👍 plus they brought their own screens 📺 either side of the stage.
    • Production was the only thing that could even explain why she would back out. Like they had sorted out the financials and she was fine with it and then a production meeting happened. It all fell apart. It was very clear that she was not going to compromise her show one bit and then that show in Brazil pretty much confirmed it. There was like one element they couldnt pull off outdoors, but it was negligible since the rest was a carbon copy of the tour she had been on. Glasto is not willing to make any bold changes on the Pyramid stage so then theyre kinda stuck in terms of what some acts want/demand. I think the easiest solution to that is putting her on Friday. You deal with the changes for one night and then re configure for the rest of the weekend. In 24 they were fortunate to have had Dua and Coldplay on Fri and Sat so they could both use the b stage. But I think it was removed for Sunday?     I saw a random rag article earlier that said Olivia Dean turned down Glasto BECAUSE her ex ( not even confirmed dating ) Harry Styles was playing the fest. hahahaha
    • No argument that he’s bigger than ever, I just have no enthusiasm for it.
    • Keep in mind those crowds were full of teenagers. Glasto aint full of teenagers. Theres no way she could demand headline and get it because they got other acts to give the slot to who deserve it with a bigger catalog. Reading/Leeds would headline her cause its still LN.  If the fest was struggling its Other headline. But a 3rd down Pyramid is likely the landing spot. Itll go down like the Camila Cabello performance pretty much.
