    Saw them in the academy last Friday night. Blown away by them. Just brilliant.

    Sensational band and the most relevant band in the world at the moment. Have been for a few years. New stuff sounded great in The Academy.

    New album Eton Alive. lol. Gets a great review in this months Mojo.

    I got really into the Sleaford Mods in early 2018, listened to them a lot for a few months, but then I unintentionally forgot about them as I moved onto other things.

    Unreal band, and I'm sorry to have missed out on their Irish dates.

    I'm not that familiar but I was very impressed with them last Friday. A short but intense set...it only dropped a bit when he did that song about paranoia or whatever it was. There's a bit of a spark about them alright.

    Mates are into them and there was a spare ticket going for last Fri so I went along. Great gig, totally enjoyed it ... had to laugh when I heard the lyric ""Graham Coxon looks like a left-wing Boris Johnson." ... :pac:

    Had seen them the previous 3 times they played here, missed out on this.

    The closest thing to a proper punk gig going these days.

    That's interesting. I'll have to pay more attention to what Idles are talking about. That class approptiation thing can work both ways.

    Ha yeah saw that. No issue with it. Sign of a healthy music scene when people are having pops at each other. Its all been far too nice lately.

    That geezer from the Mods sounds like a sanctimonious ersehole in that article. Caught up in his own bullshyte.

    GFY, mate.
