I think about this another way than being the death of bands. Bands are still topping the album charts. Some rock and metal artists are arguably more popular than in past cycles, e.g. Bring Me The Horizon, but make they money off tours. Singles help but it’s about fans enjoying a wider body of work.
Chris Evans (the English one) said that the 🇬🇧 charts have recently passed the 10 year mark for "no number ones by bands", depending on whether the KPop Demon Hunters are a band or not. Is this "era of the solo artist" a global phenomen?

This tells me that the ultimate Christmas spectacle would have been an Alien vs Predator style crossover where John McClane has to get into a building made secure by Kevin McCallister.

We were meant to be going out later somewhere fancy in London to celebrate 20 years together. Instead I’m at home with flu, an increasingly feral toddler and a very unpleasant case of sinusitis on top.

Very funny tbh.
🚨 Real Madrid considered Ibrahima Konate but inform Liverpool they have no interest in signing 26yo France int’l. Unresolved #LFC contract situation could still go either way. That + loads more on Jan/summer markets in Transfer Radar 2026 🚨

Princess Diana car crash. Vividly remembering rushing to tell my mum first thing and being screamed at for being a horrid little boy for making up something so vile.

Important to me that most of my favourite bands have been massive goths/weirdos who are also massive sports fans.
Jack White is the king of “indie dudes love sports too” representation matters baby

The Labour government said they would massively cut immigration. They have succeeded. The people who hated them, still hate them. The national conversation is still entirely about immigration, and completely toxic.
Completely foreseeable, completely foreseen.

NEW: Net migration to the UK fell significantly to 204,000 in the year to June.
That’s down from 649,000 in the year to June 2024 - a fall of around two-thirds.

I would love to see men’s football do this for all clubs who’ve qualified for Europe in a season.

Exactly the sort of player who should come into his own in a situation like this. Get running at them, bit of give and go, quality in tight spaces.

That’s a fantastic goal. But also, it weirdly felt like it had been coming - Everton carrying the bigger attacking threat since going down to 10

Was a local music journo/blogger reviewing gigs and albums. Decided I wanted to be able to say more/know more did a Music Tech degree. Realised I couldn’t stand how pretentious and difficult a lot of musicians are. Tried writing about football. It took. Market forces made me a traffic monster.
