Actually now that you mention it, I remember really loving one of the singles from it (Stevie, I think) but for whatever reason only gave the album one listen and never returned. Maybe I need to revisit it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I need to revisit it. Solid album and they got a decent crowd at Primavera last year. But subbing Woodsies always seems to be a tricky slot to fill the tent. At least for the acts I've been to anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sounded very good, though it certainly it did look as though the crowd for the final songs was bulkier than the opening ones. Think if I was there I definitely would've over-thought which of the two to see, overcomplicated it and somehow saw neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't care that they threw a tantrum and in turn made people on Twitter throw a tantrum. They'll always have bangers. I'm seeing them support Muse on Sunday, so I'm hopeful this is a good omen for that slot. I also like the touch of their drummer wearing an Arctic Monkeys t-shirt as a homage to Matt Helders' Royal Blood t-shirt when AM last did Glasto in 2013.

al_coholic Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Warpaint sound good. But obviously the graveyard shift at Woodsies. Also found their lighting really poor on my TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
