The British Army checking the boot of our car for weapons every Sunday when driving to my Gran's house in Country Tyrone, Northern Ireland.

HERE WE HERE WE HERE WE FUCKING GO.

I have downloaded every episode of Space Ghost Coast To Coast, The Brak Show and Cartoon Planet, and i'm gonna watch them all. I've never even seen Cartoon Planet, They Might Be Giants do the theme music!

Has anyone actually ever had this? I guess it's a bit like champ, but at breakfast, and with way more stuff in it.

That’s a funny way of spelling “it’s funny that the entire media is outright nazi propaganda”

People living in UK - especially GB - should not be thinking 'at least we're not as bad as America,' when Northern Ireland exists and civilians were being shot by state forces there for decades, and recent governments have given those forces amnesty. @grantsana.bsky.social leading bsky voice here.

I've just always thought Dead Kennedys were right about everything.

I cannot wait for these 3 upcoming albums...

Going to Porto in Portugal this weekend. Anyone been?

Big Heavenly news day. First of all, we are announcing a new album, Highway To Heavenly! skepwax.myshopify.com/products/hea...

Excuse Me, there's a new single out today by Heavenly on @skepwax.bsky.social. See if you can spot me at the 20 seconds mark in the video. Thank you to the band for inviting me to be involved :-) www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdAv...

If I had an opinion this awful i'd stay anonymous too.

What a glorious day!!

Nice to walk in the door from work with the lovely new Lande Hekt song on @gidcoe.bsky.social.

17 years ago tonight we played songs 11 to 13 from this LIVE on @marcrileydj.bsky.social’s 6 Music. Buy it now thanks to the good people of @precrecs.bsky.social theloves.bandcamp.com/album/prelp-...

Huge Paul McCartney fan. He's a legend. But that time he performed 'Her Majesty' to the Queen at that jubilee concert was cringeworthy as fuck. Really lame. Whenever I remember it it genuinely ruins my day.

Join the Orange Order?

If Starmer had any backbone he'd kidnap Trump.

I've been listening to a lot of B-52's of late. Here's my hot takes. 1. The debut is a bit overrated. Wild Planet is superior in every way. 2. Their mid-late period shiny melancholic pop albums Bouncing Off The Satellites and Cosmic Thing are their best. 3. Private Idaho is the weakest early single.

My Top 5 most scrobbled artists of 2025.

Neil Libbert • Jumping cat, Salford, 1957

It's a race against time to dump all my photos on Insta before the end of the year.

Tonight in a rare instance of popular culture curiousity, i'm gonna listen to that "Geese" band for the first time. Wish me luck.

Tim A Hall was taken so I had to choose one of the many alternatives.

My name is Tim A Hall.

Best Face Actor (is there an Oscar for that?)

I truly know zilch about old French music that all indiepop people seem to be into. That appears to be a positive today, though.

I'm from North Antrim and yes, we do this.

Xmas Lemmings (1991)

TIL Americans don't use the word 'fortnight'.

It's just one of those (holy) days.

The Aislers Set!

Let me take this opportunity to say that This Is My Street is still available digitally on Bandcamp for a very reasonable price... daytriprecords.bandcamp.com/album/this-i...

I've gotten way too absorbed into this Flaming Lips soap opera that's going on rn. As soon as you think everything's settled, Wayne gets on Insta determined to ruin their fanbase's christmas.

Many thanks to this years Vinyl Santa. It always amazes me when people find records I do not have and with the “This Is My Street” album, I have been looking for a copy for ages! Happy Christmas all! #VinylSanta

Here's my Anon Opin. The Smiths are mid and there's countless better '80s jangle bands to listen to.

Maybe one day i'll look into who the hell the band Geese are.

Your annual reminder that if you get this cracker joke and are confused by it, it's apparently because "ffi" is a special character in some fonts and when the typeface is changed to one that doesn't have it, those letters disappear. It's supposed to be "coffin medicine".
