That's a great record, early Meat Puppets is stonking and pretty demented much of the time in a really great speedfreaks on acid kinda way.

Never got why people think she's so great, always comes off a bit smug and self-satisfied without offering much insight other than stating the bloody obvious from the bits i've seen. Perfect fit for the Graun.

Alternatively.....

Yeah, during the recording of Bleach too, that's why the guitar sound was so heavy, cos they tuned it down a whole tone to make it heavier like CF, not realising the'd been tuned to Eb already, that's in the same book iirc. Probs the same bit actually but i've not read it for years 🤣

I've read Requiem and Last Exit multiple times but weirdly haven't got round to the others yet. What a writer tho. One of my blurbers compared Keshed to Hugh Selby Jr, Denis Johnson and Bukowski in the same sentence 😳😱🤯 Would've fallen over if i wasn't already sitting down.

Bravo 👌👌👌💯💯💯

100%, therein lies the joy of talking about these things 👌🙏

Probably got autocorrected to "tragedy" in a memo and they took it literally 😳

I said the very same thing to that friend of mine i told you about who held an extremely prominent offstage position in the party for a long time and she fully shares this baffled exasperation.

Fucking frustrated to fucking fuck why can't fucking stupid fucking life fuck off and fucking let me fucking work on my fucking manuscript in fucking peace and fucking quiet for a few fucking hours for a fuckimlng change?

Forget it, Stu. It's chickentown.

I used to watch that ALL the time, on acid 🤪 reread the book recently, magnificent stuff

anyone know any victims of 'Horton Jupiter' please do get in touch, 6 women have come forward so far and he has a police record for domestic violence and sexual abuse....

I've had it seven times and they won't give me it cos i'm "not old enough," even tho i know and they know that i WILL get it again 😱😱😱😱😱😱

I was writing about this in passing last night, in reference to the fact that it meant even the music press at the time overlooked the fact that a seismic underground figure - legendary Germs frontman Darby Crash - killed himself with a deliberate overdose of smack the day before.

Language is power, people. Beeb are dreadful for it, tho i struggle to imagine they'll ever trump their own nadir of "anti-Black Lives matter protestors," which still blows my mind.

That's just an enormous win on every level isn't it? Delighted to hear that.

Thought that was one of yours till i got to the end 😱

2026, here we come!

Expect?! Come over to the dark side with me and @minxmarple.bsky.social where it's demanded 🤣 altho i sent her a copy of Keshed last week so i should shut me trap lest it comes back and bites me on the arse 😀

If you see me wasting loads of time on here, kick us in the balls and tell me to get back to fucking work. If I'm just having a five minute fag break, though, keep yer feet away from me nads, unless it looks like I'm malingering a bit, then yer toes can start getting twitchy.

Lovely meeting re: Keshed publicity this morn with Henry @ortacpress.bsky.social and Jaime, who's doing the PR. In The Lair now for the graveyard shift, smashing out as much as I can about LA punk and a million related matters between now and when my fingers fall off at 4 a.m.

which is fine, Gav still gets nervous every time too; but she says it's cos "You lot are my favourite band and I'm always having to stand with my back to you so when I get chance, course I'm gonna stand at the front cos I love to watch my boys do their thing." 😇

of the 90's and this is what we do. I love the way in the spun out bits Emma gets off the stage. She'd never gigged before she joined us while the rest of us have done - not a lot but a reasonable enough amount, locally, at different times and she's still not 100% comfortable onstage I don't think,

with em a lot, I love watching them.

And glad you enjoyed us. I ain't listened to that kinda riffy rock in aeons and my natural instinct is to play fast, scuzzy, melodic punk if i had a choice, but me and Gav (lanky fretwanker with the red SG) have been doing music together on and off since the end

Eye/ear of the beholder innit. Dawn had a line-up change about 18 months ago - they were a lot more gothic when they had 2 x female singers and Alex doing more backing vox than lead, Evanescence (etc) kinda vibes and i preferred that myself tbh but they're great people, great musicians and we play

like the Melvins being flushed down the bog by someone who's got the curry shits from a rancid prawn Madras. In a good way 🙏

the opening night of Ruination Festival at Bradford Underground, which is over the road from the station. It's a fab venue, we played there last December with a doom band from Iceland, sound was mint. Coincidentally, this was the song not recorded on Fri.....Sounds

Yeah it's a bloody great recording, innit? The gaff is TINY if you're wondering why it's filmed from so close up. Whereabouts are you based? I'm sure I know but my head is soup. We've not strayed out of West Yorks yet cos we're all so bloody busy, but next confirmed one is Friday 30th January for

Cracking 🙏

She does, it's great to hear such a good recording cos we make a right racket at practice and can't always hear her. But she's fucking brilliant.
