i think anyone whos spent 160 odd quid to get a reading ticket, and as a genuine music fan, would have the common sense to pick up a few pearl jam cds, if not then they might miss out on an amazing gig for them, so i think its safe to say people are going to get into pearl jam becuase of reading

EDIT: cock? no f**king need mate

Yeah, I can say I'm already one of those people. When the annoucement was made I was disappointed, but I think they're the band I'm looking forward to third most now. I honestly didn't know who they were before, but they are a grunge band I've found and I can enjoy.

I've got Riot Act and Rearviewmirror, have to say their older stuff sounds alot better. I'll definitely be into them when CW comes round, think I'm gonna look into picking up the new album as well.

I am going to get some CD's...if i like them i will go and see them and im sure they will put on a great show.

But if i dislike there music, or just dont get into them, i will quite happily see Maximo Park, and im sure they will put on a great show.

The new album is about four thousand times better than their last effort. It leaked yesterday and I think virtually everyone will prefer it to Riot Act...and probably Binaural too. There aren't really any 'weak' songs on it and there are at least 3 or 4 absolute classics.

Severed Hand is an intense, upbeat rocker in the vein of Porch. Unemployable is a massive departure from their sound. Very interesting and suits his voice perfectly today.

Then the last three songs are really beautiful. Army Reserve, Come Back (lighters aloft!) and Inside Job. The last one especially.

I think Vs is an essential album aswell, maybe not as much as ten, but for tracks like animal, daughter, dissident, elderly woman, glorified G, indifference. tis cracking still and highly recommended

Am I the only one who hates Severed Hand?!

Everytime I listen to it I just think "...Porch was better". I try and listen to it without thinking of Porch, but that riff makes it imposssible. I guess it could sound cool if they tacked it onto the end of Porch, abut as a stand alone song I think it's terrible.

Have you heard the song?

The riff is very nearly the same as the Porch riff. It's not harsh at all. If they use the same riff then there's obviously going to be comparison. In my opinion Porch is 10 times as good as Severed Hand.

I love every PJ album, but too be honest this is shaping up to be my least favourite. I've heard WWS, SH, Unemployable and Parachutes. WWS and Unemployable are quite good but nothing special, Parachutes doesn't do much for me and SH is pretty poor.

    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare     
    • 6music just shared a video of all of Fontaines DC singing along to the Cure last night. It'll be them. Booooo    Olivia might get up for I Love You though...
    • Proper loser behaviour wearing a tee like that. Me and my mate play a game every year called ‘Boomer Tees’ and there’s some gems every time.
