There's a new Neil Young EP out today, The Times. Classic protest songs reworked for 2020.

Released through Amazon Music so I'd guess it's exclusive to them.

Aye mate that’s what I took from it. I haven’t read the NME interview it’s came from but looking at the replies to those tweets they apparently don’t come across well.

I don’t mind them musically but they aren’t half getter no in my tits with their constant repetitive patter. Wish they’d lighten up a bit

i think its that they are peddling the line that they would have more diverse acts supporting them, more females or female lead bands but they're costing the earth... and they've been called out for it, rightly it would seem...

They are an awful band - they try too hard to be right on - 'my brother is an immigrant, a beautiful immigrant' - they may as well say 'we are right on about everything'. Equally, their music has been done many times before and better. Compare them to Sleaford Mods who are wittier, more original and say things in a far more effective way. When I heard that first song 'even Tarquin has a degree' I genuinely thought they were a parody band, but no they were serious. Nice to see them getting called out.
They're shite imo. Few good tracks but that's it. Plenty doing what they're doing, but far better.

IDLES have been touted as the voice of a generation, but they may be better suited to novelty pop-up cafés, finds JR Moores

like I say I don’t mind them. Of course they’re not the greatest at what they do But how many bands can say they are. To be fair I don’t really follow them much to care.
I always find that divvy from Sleaford Mods more cringey. He’s another one who feels the need to constantly tell the world how socialist he is. The pair of them need to lighten up. I’m absolutely no authority on either just how I see it from the outside looking in.

I've found Idles 6th form politics pretty fucking bland for a while now but they've really shit the bed with that female artists nonsense today, mind.
"Nadine Shah was too expensive" - that probably is the case but there are hundreds of other female artists you could have asked next ya daft brushes!
