Very Sunday afternoon gentle drama. Of the numerous cosy murder shows we watched over the weekend not even close to being the worst.
Would (probably) hate watch this.
Watched Murder before Evensong at my parents the other day - it'd definitely be more fun than that.
So once upon a time, not so long ago, it was the common consensus that we should try and build a better world for all.
I miss that.

I didn't even have time to get into the weirdly deep folk horror trigger of the second track
"Is it a kind of dream?"
and the generation specific trauma it calls up.
I think if you know it doesn't need explaining and if you don't it maybe can't be.
It's such a sharp honed little sliver though.
Review | U - Archenfield by @ouchmonkey.bsky.social

Listening to Nomeansno is always a good idea. I know, slightly tenuous on the spooky but... Zombies!

Tenth anniversary made a lot more sense when bands put out an album a year and five years between releases seemed eternity. Now it's not even uncommon.
On the other hand, if you want physical copies noone is pressing vast quantities and sitting on stock for a decade. The aim is to sell out in weeks
Pretty much everything wrong in the UK is her fault. It doesn't even take all that much effort to trace it back. Destroyed industry more by incompetence than will, tore public services to pieces, sold off the work of a nation for beans...
Just seen a headline which asks "Thatcher was born 100 years ago and her reign feels a lifetime away. Why is her effect on the country still so huge?"

It's because she was a massive bastard. Hope that helps x
Excellent news. Centrala is a real treasure, an excellent venue/art space.

I don't think Ballard is ever guilty of that kind of thing, although his characters are rarely very rounded
Have you seen she does something called, not joking, Vagina Vision Vortex?
Great set from Stick in the Wheel tonight, maybe the best I've seen them. Particularly enjoyed hearing this weird little song played live and, as mentioned, it does have a really nice video.
So, here you go
