Finally got my copy of Waxahatchee - Tigers Blood delivered, after the first was lost in transit (thanks to rough trade for sending a replacement).

Album of the year so far by a country mile for me! It will take one hell of an album to displace it.

Like the new Schoolboy Q album - a bit moodier and less commercial sounding than recent releases. It's a pretty interesting album and it jumps around from pretty grimey trap to softer jazzier tracks.

I love it, just so happens I’m playing it now, have revisited Saint Cloud too. Really frustrated I can’t see her later in the year on tour.
 

I’m already enthused with several albums this year: Brittany Howard, MGMT, Julia Holter, Lee Scratch Perry, and have high hopes for Vampire Weekend which I’ve yet to play. Black Keys is decent too.

Only just got round to listening to the new Yard Act and think it's great. Think they've really improved since The Overload, better storytelling and the music's gotten more disco-y and Talking Heads inspired. Really looking forward to seeing them this year, didn't manage to catch them in 2022.

Vampire Weekend is lovely if you like Vampire Weekend. Could do with some sunny days for it to hit right.

I'm enjoying Bob Vylan as well again nothing massively different from them but a decent album nonetheless.

@Avalon_FieldsHave you listened to Katherine Priddy's new one seem to recall you were a fan - been out about a month now so not exactly brand new.

No. I’m not really sure why I haven’t. I really like her first album and a friend said the second was really good. I need to sort myself out!!

Agree with the Waxahatchee shouts - she has racked up a seriously impressive back catalogue now. Not a duff album but still continues to outdo ourself. 

 

Took a while to arrive but the new Grace Cummings album came today and is amazing as well. 'Everybody's somebody' massive song. 

 

Gutted I cannot make it to either Waxahatchee' or Grace Cummings' gigs this summer - such good value for such awesome artists.

I particularly enjoy the ‘listening to Grammatics’ line. What a band they were!

Given Illusion might be time to call the paramedics on DL3. Kevin Parker d@bs down yet again.

Yup, most generic one out of the three

and I’m definitely putting this all on Parker’s shoulders. Guy is simply averse to producing bangers.

English Teacher debut LP out today

Had never listened to these before as I assumed they were some sh*t landfill indie act due to their name but gave it a listen after seeing the rave reviews and it’s pretty damn good. I’m a bit over the whole talk-singing post-punk thing so was a bit apprehensive but there’s loads of good stuff here. Very Black Country, New Road in places.

It's better than training season

 

Houdini is the pick of three - the others are both pretty mid. Not bad exactly, but not what the doctor ordered when Friday 28th June comes to mind.

 

If anyone sees this dweeb wandering G24 it's on sight.

 

1901_Matt-Sav_Kevin-Parker_1-1-1040x660.

Agreed, Houdini is still best, but none of these tracks beat any of the Future Nostalgia singles.

Uh huh, all the FN singles have already cemented themselves in the pop pantheon, whereas these new ones have largely been dead on arrival. What a shame, especially as I fully believed she’d be untouchable on this album. Here’s hoping the album has some hidden gems.

Yeah that new Dua one is very underwhelming.  Have loved her previous stuff but none of the 3 new singles are doing it for me at all.

 

On the other hand, loving Chappell Roan due to some of the tips on here.  Surprised no one has mentioned her new single from last week  - Good Luck, Babe!  Just listened to it straight after the new Dua and its miles better.  Absolute Banger!

    • RE: Unexpected Primavera   wasn't there some sort of confirmation at some point that something in the framework of unexpected Primavera would happen? Or did i dream that?
    • If you’re heading to the BBC Introducing stage then look out for Bar on the Green’s new location right next door. This well loved bar offers plenty of indoor seating, cocktails, premium beers – including non alcoholic & disco tunes well into the night.       From the Glasto website in the 'bars' section - maybe freeing up space on Williams green for something else.
    • Only you and your named PA or Companion (If you have one) on your Accessible Application form can get their wristbands at the Accessible Arrivals Marquee. If you have a free PA ticket this is the only place it can be collected. Did you apply to use any other Accessible Facilities? If so you will need to collect the wristbands and or passes for these from there too. Are their any children in the group?  Are you camping in Spring Ground? All other members of your group have to go to Gate A. The queues are considerably shorter but the processing time is longer as it's not a case of just issuing a wristband, most people also have other wristbands and passes to collect.   It depends where you class as the "main site", I have attached last years Access Map to give you an idea of the location of the Accessible Arrivals Car Park, see D16 for the entrance point into Yellow Gate and the distances from the Accessible Car Park to Spring Ground and then from Spring Ground to to some of the areas within the festival.  Let me know your replies and i can advise you accordingly. 😊   https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/access-information/access-map/ https://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/information/access-information/distances/
