Me, @ineeddirection.bsky.social , & @killminus.bsky.social might not agree on everything, but this playlist of songs we've all agreed are the best of their respective years on the last 8 and a half years of @wedigmusic.bsky.social makes an absolutely brilliant playlist!

I've just updated the We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist with every song so far that's won one of our episodes. We've collectively chosen some bloody brilliant songs over the last 8 and a half years!

Epic pod given me lots of new stuff to listen too. Will be picking up leprous, lubomry melnyck, and more! I too went to see VLMA and Natalie Evans at The Folklore Rooms in Brighton I echo the sentiments expressed in the pod. Also revisiting Vnder a crumbling Moon after you mentioned them as aside.

Well, that was a fabulous listen, and the section below was absolutely incredible! What I found striking is that, amongst three avowed noiseniks, how many times that the winning song was something completely beautiful. I'll be going back through it to make up my own top 10, but it's onto 2015 now.

The bloody character limit here doesn't allow nearly as much as I need to pay tribute to Ozzy so here's what I posted over on Facebook. A true hero. Black Sabbath have always made me proud of Birmingham and the West Midlands.

Thank you for everything Ozzy.

#ozzyosbourne #ripozzy #blacksabbath
Fuck. RIP Ozzy. As part of Black Sabbath he's one of the four godfathers and progenitors of Heavy Metal. No other band makes me prouder of Birmingham & The West Midlands in general. I've had so many good times listening to Ozzy, from dancing to Perry Mason at the Jailhouse as a teenager, to watching Sabbath at various Ozzfests, to laughing at his brilliant sense of humour, to singing along to Crazy Train with Elodie in the car. Thank you Ozzy. Thanks for everything. You'll be missed. I'm going to try and find a bat and bite its head off in tribute, or failing that, at least piss on the alamo...

Great episode, very enjoyable hearing all your stories and thoughts.
Listened on my way back from Leeds Festival (ok, a 6 band mini-festival lineup in a small Leeds venue, close enough).

@ineeddirection.bsky.social Rockaway Beach does tick all your boxes Tracey 😉
More current artists than retro.

Slightly worried that Lorde has put up plastic sheeting around the Woodsies stage at Glastonbury in a very similar style to Dexter's kill room. There's a good chance she'll be dismembering the corpse of her synth player at the end of her set.

#glastonbury2025 #bbcglasto #lorde #dexter
Lorde at Glastonbury has covered the stage and backdrop in plastic sheeting reminiscent of fictional vigilante killer Dexter Morgan's kill room. A Picture of dexter's kill room for comparison.
