is it a stretch for me to be mad suspect of white boys in ‘post punk’ bands that claim to hate dub?

Still can’t believe I got to see Martin Rev in farsley the other day. Very surreal experience. It was the perfect way of getting schooled by the elders. At 77 he still encapsulated the spirit of Suicide. I rarely go and see my ‘heroes’ but it was so worth it!

This record is just so so good. The fact they’re all kids is insane. Perfect intersection between anarcho / post punk & goth, can’t stop listening. & a 16 year old Chris liberator (now acid techno legend) on bass.

‘Leucotome are the perfect agglomeration of everything that was good about those legendary Factory Records bands and other 1979-82 flange-pedal covens - especially the more skeletal- and abject-sounding groups, like Section 25 and AC Marias.’
CZR #004 out now!

Those lucky enough to have a golden ticket to the Tristwch y Fenywod / Leucotome show at Hallé St. Michael’s tomorrow night (well, technically tonight) have first dibs on the new Leucotome demo tape. There will be a VERY limited amount for sale!

Love it when people leave their day tickets on the machine when they’ve finished using them, should be standard practise! Also bus tickets in manc now last for an hour, so be sure to hand your ticket to someone getting on if you’re only making the one trip in an hour!

I’ve still never seen Inland Empire, Lost Highway or Dune. Probs time for a DL marathon. It’s rare a celeb death stings as much as this one, at least I know I’m sharing it with lotssss of people

Powerful demo earlier opposing the subjection of Roma and traveller communities at the hands of the GMP and the council, not just in Manchester but all over the country. Collective solidarity is the only way forward

So much of my favourite art and music over the decades was only made possible because of the welfare state. If it wasn’t for UC and PIP there’s no chance in hell I’d ever be able to do anything creative. I’d probably be freezing to death on the street.
