I'm glad to make recommendations if you like.
Re Mogwai, I have a playlist of tracks that sound like Mogwai too.
If there's such a thing, I actually do listen to too much music! When I'm alone (like now), it's rarely out of my ears.

The irony being I can't read the article because Cloudflare is still down.
Anyway, I work with a client whose magazine part of their website returned the 500 server error for weeks. It picked up surprisingly quickly in Google Search when fixed.

Which album? Rave Tapes is my favourite but apparently one of the least popular.
My favourite thing Mogwai has released is the Earth Division EP.

I imagine a lot of the positive comments are fake too, though some of these "AI" artists are streamed enough to make a decent whack of money from streaming services. Assuming that money is paid.

I'm having one of those Friday's too. Laptop crashing and freezing, watch GPS not connecting when I went for a run, then my phone not working when I got home.
It's character building I suppose.

I can't see that they're hiding replies. The article itself has a caption under the image saying it's AI generated.
I am also not a fan of "AI" generated imagery.

I'm auditing a client's site that—every time they do an update—something seems to regress. It's so frustrating and they're performing below where they should be organic-wise.
This time, canonical tags have disappeared from any PLPs containing a URL parameter.
