Wolf Alice

nice cover imo

Bit of a catty review in Pitchfork. They always seem to have a problem with bands that are bigged up in the UK press.

Really good this, last month's Worthy Farm mini-gig

it isn't LOUD ENOUGH

A whole dvd of these videos will surely go on to a ‘Deluxe’ edition of Blue Weekend just in time for Christmas.

listened to this on a whim after finding everything else they've done very boring and I kind of like this one. She really sounds like Elizabeth Fraser on a few tracks.

I've never heard anything to convince me this band isn't deathly dull.

I spoke to your mom about it though

First gig back tonight, in the coastal town of Bournemouth, their first proper gig since the end of 2018. Seems they did most of the new album, and at some point a cover of I'm Waiting For The Man

demo of a track that didn't make the album, quite nice

That's a pretty one! I hadn't thought about it since it came out, but worth coming back to.

In other news, this version of Delicious Things with an orchestra at Abbey Road came out yesterday and it sounds amazing.

It looks like they're coming back to America in March. Check your local listings.

Today we release a new lullaby version of The Last Man On Earth featuring @LCVchoir.
It’s the first song from a collection called Blue Lullaby which will be released as an EP on June 24th.

Yeah, just listened to the new version of Last Man on Earth. For the record, I am not tiring of all the new versions of Last Man on Earth. The changes in the arrangement are always subtle, but I still get into it.

It sounds like the rest of the EP will also be stripped-back versions of album cuts.

No word yet on a physical release, so I'm guessing this will just be a digital thing.

Blue Lullaby EP out today (whilst band frantically tries to find a plane to Glastonbury)

Killed it on the Pyramid stage; that was about as good as it could possibly have been. Felt like an audition to headline. I hope they don’t disappear too long to write/record album 4.

The Lullaby "Lipstick on the Glass" is GORGEOUS. Wow.

Feels like it's jumped up a notch this summer; all the will-they-won't-they stuff pre-Glastonbury on Friday, supporting Harry Styles on *seventeen* arena dates, etc etc.

New stage set up looks fabulous

Ellie's doing vocals on a new song by Thy Slaughter, which is an A.G. Cook thing. My first impression is that it's not that distinct, as far as A.G. Cook things go.
