Oh Scott, @theeminus5.bsky.social

That backing vocal on “Special Guest Appearance” is both sad and funny.

You know which one!

Possibly the only time that the ghost of Phil Ochs has been invoked on Southsea Pier.

Thanks dude x

Me: talking about the new album and stuff!

Thanks a million Luke for keeping the faith ❤️

Album of the Day: Luke Haines & Peter Buck's Going Down To the River...To Blow My Mind. Veteran British rocker Haines mines a musical vein similar to Robyn Hitchcock, Martin Newell, and The Jazz Butcher), falling somewhere in the middle with his own psych-drenched and folk-influenced rock sound.

Shan't be watching Masterchef now that Wallace and the other one have gone. Fucking loved those guys. Total legends.

The new Buck Haines LP is out now - here's what At The Barrier have to say!

Small table showing chart placings in "Rock N Roll Animals" three week chart run - number 17 then number 81 and finally number 49

Had a look at its chart run - in at 17, down to 81 the following week, then back up to 49 in week 3 before leaving the chart - all without needing a TOTP appearance or (seemingly) any playlisting on radio. Good work sir!

The only time a gallery can be a 'great night out' is when it's a free view, with oceans of free wine. Other than that, not so much.

Yeah, when I first saw it I was really unsure about NM. But after recent watch I thought he played Malry brilliantly. I think his turn and casting was somewhat 'misunderstood' at the time! Haha.

I saw the film recently. First time since ICA. It has aged really well and was oddly prescient. I think one of the perceptions was that some of the lead actors were seen as 'lightweight'. Now, this seems unimportant. I had previously been ambivalent about the film ( my soundtrack notwithstanding).

Because the 'charts' dont mean anything anymore, I decided to look up some of my more recent 'hits' and...fuck me. ' Rock n Roll Animals' got to 17 in the actual singles charts! Blow me down with a feather! ( no one told me)

Are we staring into the Ashes of Christmas future? #cricket

'Time for Overton to step up and join in' I would say time for Overton to step down and go away. #cricket

I read Machen many years ago, but found him pretty turgid. Then recently someone recommended Robert Aickman, and now my mind is blown!

Apologies for self publicity posts. Gotta eat etc. Normal service will resume shortly when I will be running the gauntlet of Britain's short trousered men.

Metacritic! There's a Metacritic. At last.
