Already seen These New Puritans twice this year. Sacrificing a ticket for Protomartyr for a third at Village Underground was made worthwhile by the fine company and, of course, Charles Hayward's excellent and energetic solo set

Swans have left the stage. But only after 2 1/2 hours of electrifying, brutal and beautiful music. All that after a haunting and poignant set from Jessica Moss drawing from her latest - and finest - release, Unfolding

Haven't managed to see Deathcrash since 2021 and last saw Divide & Dissolve on Low's final tour. Getting both at Corsica Studios made for a quality night - if a somewhat poignant one. 3 years to the day since we lost Mimi Parker, tributes on the stage and a lot of Low on the PA.
