Rather. It'll be the same as the rest. Which is fine by me
I was disappointed by them at Glastonbury I must say. Could hardly hear a word of the vocals. Would still love to see them mind.

Thursday.
Tuesday for me
I'm very much enjoying Tides of Man. I'm not sure how I had never heard of them to be honest!

Very, even though versions of all of the tracks are available now - and most have been for a while.
Some belters on there.

I'm going to confess that I've never heard The National, I take it they should be one of my picks today? Living Colour is the other one, and (not new) I'm going to check out the album by Counting Coins who supported the Real McKenzies last night. They describe themselves as ska-hiphop-gypsy-punk and they had loads of energy on stage.
On an aside, how do smaller bands make any cash? It was £10 a ticket last night, and you'd be lucky if there were 100 people there so that's a grand. They have to pay for the venue and give them a cut, they have the guy who was manning the tshirt stall, and the local band who was supporting. Then there were 5 members of Counting Coins and 6 members of the Real McKenzies to take a cut. TBF I read that Glasgow tomorrow night is sold out, and I'm assuming Edinburgh tonight will have a decent turnout so it's probably swings and roundabouts

NEW NATIONAL DAY
Listened to the National once (well I have listened to the singles a lot before) and it's unsurprisingly very good
Alvvays are bloody dull mind

Archie, Marry Me is a class song
This Alex Cameron record is a banger. Wrap your ears around it and have a good Friday.
It is. The rest of their stuff seems to be jangle by numbers though.
The national album is class as expected, looking forward to hearing the rostam album too, liked the singles from it so far.
edit: looks like the rostam album isnt out until next friday

They don't.
They wouldn't be in any way successful if they didn't have a good looking blonde lass as a singer. Harsh but true. It gets you places.

I suspect you're right about that. It's clearly the main thing holding The Wave Pictures back.

Hmm, hope it's better than that mind. They do make similar sounding music but usually it's class.
