Amazing to be reviewed in this spectacular celebratory issue.
Thanks @spennyt.bsky.social for reporting in depth about new album πŸ’™
I’m picking up a copy as soon as I land at the airport for a couple of gigs in UK next week πŸͺ‚

Argh, that's @spennyt.bsky.social on Collapsing Drums! Apologies.

Though @darylworthington.bsky.social's profile on Weston Olencki (who has a stunning new album coming out 19 Sep on @ooutsidetimee.bsky.social) in the new issue is very much worth reading, too!

No stress from my end πŸ‘

I'll never complain about being mixed up with Daryl, fantastic writer and I'm a big fan

Thanks again and have a good one

Wire 500, fuck yes.

I wrote some bits and pieces, still gobsmacked that I get to contribute in honesty.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

A question for those in the know: do town councils have anything in their power to directly address food poverty?

I'm unsure of specific powers that town councils have, thanks in advance.
