Yello to kick things off so I imagine it's downhill all the way from here #Eurovision

It's the new thing. Rattling on a bit about the latest Popstock set of old live cuts from the mighty Fall... #FallFriday @echoesanddust.bsky.social echoesanddust.com/2025/05/the-...

Morning. Still, there's the boundless curiosity and excellence of Matmos youtu.be/q0Bhx5IFtjQ?...

May 15th is Nakba Day, the day that commemorates the on-going ethnic cleansing of Palestine by Israel. This year, it has been 77 years since Israel violently occupied a land full of people and made them into a people without land. 77 years.

I'd say Finland just raised the bar there... #Fin #Eurovision

Went to see Death Valley Girls last week. Enjoyed it. Wrote about it. Would fully support an all garage Eurovision. @deathvalleygirls.bsky.social

Lost me specs. Not on my head. Suspect they might be enjoying a ride in the washing machine

Interview | Andrew “Falco” Falkous from mclusky Gavin Brown caught up with mclusky vocalist/guitarist @shitrock.bsky.social to talk about the creation of the new record, how excited he is for mclusky to be back in 2025 and more. echoesanddust.com/2025/05/andr... @ipecac.com

"a singer with painted on pants, the voice of an asphyxiated Rod Stewart, and the face of a young Eugene Levy." Great piece from @zacharylipez.bsky.social on the prime of AC/DC. Now inevitably diverting my attention away from 'getting on with stuff' to rockin'. thequietus.com/opinion-and-...

Texan lullabies

New mclusky then. It's a ripper. the world still loves them and is their bitch or whatever.

RIP Steve (and Mark) #TheFall #Albini thefoul.bandcamp.com/track/rip-st...

Here's a thing - ambushed by the perfect song, deep in the drink Dear God, the gift this woman has #CaitlinRose youtu.be/b7AK0JohzSE?...

I've no time to sit comfortable down But I still need armchairs round my home To put carrier bags on The Fall - Carry Bag Man #FallFriday youtu.be/7jZQkOHcFGU?...

Oh yeah, new Loscil - Lake Fire is out today. It's as elegant and subtly moving as you might have come to expect. (If you were looking for a band camp pick) @loscil.ca @krankyltd.bsky.social loscil.bandcamp.com/album/lake-f...

This does seem to be pretty much unarguable doesn't it?

Currently on iPlayer as well, worth a watch although inevitably it's enraging and depressing. #FreePalestine

great driving around on sunny days album. I missed that he'd made a new one last year, better check that out, huh? youtu.be/I_xc417qxUA?...

Feeling more than usually Maurice Moss today youtu.be/IgloGWshcj0?...

This is exactly what my frying mind needs this morning. Jayne Dent having a wander and a wonder somewhere. Looking forward to album. @upset-the-rhythm.bsky.social youtu.be/D_K1vu-MhcE?...

Both Robert Galbraith

Sorry to hear Alexander Hacke is leaving the band and doubly regretting not making it down to London to see them last time. I like the Hackedepiciotto stuff though. His bass is key to this gem but I'm sure they'll reconfigure interestingly again #neubauten #alienpopmusic youtu.be/CxDriPLyBqo?...

❤️ Fans delighted to see Sue Johnston and Ricky Tomlinson reunited #Brookside #GreatestLivingGeordie #EggPunk

"You think it's the pipes, but who turns on the lights?" Nice live version of this on the soon come Popstock release of early Fall singles - in their supernatural weirdness phase #Popstock #FallFriday youtu.be/s13YC7RsimE?...

Well, this is fun youtu.be/lhVeE3N3Rcw?...
