'No Weapon Shall Prosper has the multiple producer credits and guest features you might expect from a mixtape but, considering the number of hands that have been on it, it’s remarkable how it holds to a central vision.' RenzNiro - No Weapon Shall Prosper buff.ly/YbgsRoD

One of their absolute best I think. Pity the sleeve looks like they're about to present Saturday morning kids TV. Full ABBA enigma

Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:

Hydration break

Police say they are looking for a white male in connection with the murder of Ann Widdecombe. Stay safe tonight, all my white friends. My thoughts are with you. I know you are not all killers and overwhelmingly desire to live in peace, whatever the vigilantes might say.

We should invent a kind of canceling where the guy goes away

I feel like it's worth mentioning just now that in 1952, Country legend Hank Williams sold 14,000 tickets to his wedding to Billie Jean Jones in New Orleans, with a matinee too! topcountry.levie.com.vn/they-got-mar...

I see we're all once again ignoring that 'the south' is really just the bottom right hand corner of this country...

Gorgeous. Ain't broke, don't fix it. I was just beginning to think they might not bother again as well #DinoJr youtu.be/KMPf5HB4rvM?...

Oh I say! #Paraguay

Latest on today's Manc/Brum discourse, my mom's just seen Burnham on telly and asked "is he a Brummie?"

So long Margo

Reading Patricia Lockwood sometimes makes me feel like I cannot myself form basic sentences, but it is a joy. Just as well she's not evangelising really.

Haven't paid much attention to Elvis for a long old while but was listening to a best of in the car. Lad could pen a tune eh? This absolute monster is 40 this year, good lord! Blood & Chocolate is, oddly, both my favourite Elvis album and the last one I care about at all... youtu.be/nfQck4k1ho0?...

Tech CEOs in 2026: ‘We spent billions to hopefully one day have an ai that can make people feel like it’s portraying real emotions for tv, but we need way more money to do it’ Jim Henson in 1955: ‘yeah so I stuck some ping pong balls to a bit of old felt and called it Kermit’

Some people get annoyed when music is described in a pretentious way. But music is one of our most abstract and ineffable artforms, and a much bigger problem is that we aren’t describing it pretentiously enough.

Review | Blind Eye - Mistrust Your Nation by @ouchmonkey.bsky.social "A no messing blast of hardcore rippers that scarcely pauses to catch its breath." echoesanddust.com/2026/06/blin...

Obviously - many. but the first name to mind - David Thewlis

“deeply sorry for an unacceptable marketing incident.” Incredible story

God DAMN! What a fucking great band they were.

How's that fer yr #FallFriday then? New album of unheard stuff in yhe pipe. First tune here... the-fall-band.myshopify.com

Just been reminded of this little gem. Never seen it with this film which suits perfectly. Rainy Day was a David Roback led bunch of Paisley Underground types doing covers of Neil Young, Big Star, Velvets and so on. Whole record is lovely if now slightly lost to time youtu.be/G5ZehtWDRUE?...

Seems fair.

Been a while since I pulled my finger out to write something for the Quietus but this new Neptune album is a beaut.

Here then, low key good news about stuff the govt lacks the balls to shout about. Although, tbf to them, you kind of know the whiny response it would get from the great British public iandunt.substack.com/p/guest-post...

Hey people! Yr actual punk rock Dads Rollins n MacKaye are helping Poison Ivy put out some lost Cramps stuff recorded with Alex Chilton when they did the first couple of singles. How could that not be great news Rock and/or Roll! youtu.be/9K3cc9BMqmU?...
