Who radicalised him?
Donald Trump is exactly what he sounds like, a Hitler wannabe with the brain of a cabbage.
The USA is in serious trouble with him in charge.
Donald Trump will kill all the Palestinians when they refuse to move, exactly as Adolf Hitler did to the Jews.
Outrageously good record-and artwork! 🎶👌

Empires And Dance | Simple Minds | 1980
With artwork from The Artifex Studio, Simple Minds get a clean and striking design for album no. 3. The font and reversed lettering has been used by the Manics on numerous occasions. SM at their most European both in sound and style.
Stonehouse Violet….
reminds me of going to all those junior football grounds in my teens 40 odd years ago!!! Fabulous song.
Teenage Fanclub performing Radio on Later and sounding so good. Gerry's smile at the end says it all!

Echo & The Bunnymen released The Killing Moon on this day in 1984 (H/T @whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social). Here's a thread featuring three great live versions, but let's start with the full 9 minutes of the All Night mix from the 12"

Gloriously bleak tune- absolutely love it! 🎶👌

Endsong | The Cure | 2024
Couldn’t end without including The Cure. Bleakness on a grand scale, 10m and 24s of it in fact. Oh it’s so good having them back.
Thanks @top10nathan.bsky.social
