Discover Pulp's latest album 'More' — a heartfelt return blending nostalgia with new themes of aging, desire, and introspection. Plus their usual wit. (And a quick review of last night's London O₂ Arena concert!) #pulp #more #musicreview #music #concertreview commfailure.com/pulps-more-r...

I was so happy to see #BrianWilson with the #Wondermints at the @royalalberthall.bsky.social in 2004. A special, very unique and talented American artist. Rest in peace, Brian. #TheBeachBoys
