Kanye West, Kneecap e Morrissey ao vivo neste solarengo retângulo em 2026. "Onde é que falhámos?", perguntam os Skrewdriver.

Maduro, sensual, rico nos detalhes, dançável. "Superbloom", de Jessie Ware, arrepia. A minha crítica no JN (online hoje, no papel amanhã): www.jn.pt/cultura/arti...

A few words about quite possibly the catchiest song I've heard all year.

When I saw this Panorama-based story about the torments inflicted upon British Jews in their home country, on the BBC News site, c. 7.15 am, it had been filed to "Middle East". Minutes later, it had been corrected to "UK". I would be interested to hear the BBC's explanation for the original error.

Some of my all-time favourite records were introduced to me by this man.

Isto. Uma ausência triste e gritante.

Want to know what I made of the whole Kanye West/Wireless Festival farrago? Of course you do. Read all about it in @jewishchron.bsky.social - link in reply.

NEW: WIRED tracked down some of the most prominent figures of last year’s DOGE invasion. Here's where they are now—in government and beyond. read @telliotter.bsky.social:

It's the question I get asked the most from people who know what I do for a living. And once in a while, I attempt to answer it. Eight entirely positive reviews of eight of my favourite new releases. Click on the link to read about (and hear) them all.

I love Lykke Li. I love being sad alongside her, and the new album is perfect for that. I spoke to her about it all for ee72: ee72.com/lykke-li-tal...

Aquela ideia de acabar com as marcas da rádio pública deu um resultado muito catita. Parabéns aos génios

Não estou certo de que Pacheco Pereira saiba exatamente no que se meteu. O seu debate não é com Ventura, mas antes com o sistema mediático ele próprio. Não contra o dispositivo material deste debate concreto. Mas contra um sistema que privilegia verdades alternativas e derivadas

ORBAN CONCEDED!!!!!!!!

There are so many people and factors involved in the rise of reactionary politics it's hard to know where to start but I think that among a parade of horrors it really is the "haha react" people I feel the most visceral hatred for.

Little more on George Michael's perfectionism. Tonight The Music Seems So Loud: The Meaning of George Michael is out in June & you can pre-order signed, dedicated editions from independent bookshop Backstory. Tickets are also now available for launch events in London and Hay via sathnam.com/events

Milk as a hot drink in itself – as opposed to somethng you put in a hot drink. That's the lovely, comforting hill I choose to die on. And in today's Times, I explain why in deeply persuasive detail. (£)

★★★★ #JamesK @barbicancentre.bsky.social - the New Yorker's first UK show with full band shows nerdy personality and grand vision - @joemuggs.bsky.social finds a little awkwardness and a lot of awe www.theartsdesk.com/new-music/ja...

Having lain dormant in my head for the longest time, I'm currently a little bit obsessed with this tune.

First they came for the Heil Hitler guy And I did not speak out Because I was not a Heil Hitler guy What the fuck Everyone hates that guy Fuck him

If you missed me in my new weekly Monday lunchtime slot on Soho Radio, you can catch up here. For the latter part of the show, Matt Ashton from The Leaf Library gamely tackled a barrage of Smash Hits-style questions concerning bus seat location preferences & chance meetings with Ronnie O'Sullivan.

Tilly & The Wall at Camden Barfly in 1996 will probs forever be lodged in my 10 all-time favourite gigs & their LP Wild Like Children remains one of my all-time fave debuts. I've posted the interview I did with them at the time, but really it's a pretext upon which to share this life-affirming clip.

The thing is, while your ovaries are still active, you do quietly think, "Oh, if things get bad, I COULD repopulate the world. Put my shoulder to the wheel." But for me, this is no longer an option. Sorry, humanity: www.thetimes.com/article/7a36...

"Wilding" ilustra um documentário sobre um projeto de rewilding em West Sussex. A música de Jon Hopkins e Biggi Hilmars, de duração ínfima e utilitária, mal alcança vida própria. Umas vezes é ambient, outras orquestral. Amiúde genérico, sons para imagens de drones a sobrevoar a natureza a sarar.

SOOOORRRY it's been delayed, but worth the wait and then some - gods, monsters, Dick, Crowley, free jazz, refuting taste, the over-artist, Morrissey's relish and so much more. @reversediorama.bsky.social @memorialdevice.bsky.social

Love this record more than ever.

There are many immigration success stories in pop. Harry Vanda & George Young are up there with the best of them. The Easybeats met at the Villawood Migrant Hostel in Sydney. Then V&Y were also instrumental to the success of AC/DC, wrote Love Is In The Air & gave us the brilliant Flash & The Pan.

Happy "Let my people go"/"YOU KILLED CHRIST!" weekend (delete as applicable) to all who celebrate. I'm in this week's @jewishchron.bsky.social, writing about how I still love the art of people who seemingly hate me. (Link in reply.)

Really sad I missed the April Fools opportunity to announce Bobby Gillespie will join Kanye at Wireless for a performance of "Swastika Eyes" ☹️

Why do these all sound like gay slurs

Possibly the best tweet ever committed to the site.

LO fucking L Kanye's label Gamma is run in the UK by Ben Cook, the guy who had to step down as president of Atlantic Records because he'd blacked up for a party.

★★★★ She may feel 'Ambiguous Desire' but Arlo Parks's ambition is single-minded writes @joemuggs.bsky.social theartsdesk.com/new-music/sh...

I really, really hope it's because he shat his pants. One day, he will. And it will be a day of global rejoicing.

I was lucky enough to interview the king of 50s Soho, Jet Harris, back in 2004 for a feature on the Shadows. I only used a couple of quotes, but Jet was terrific. I've put the whole interview up on my Record Room page. patreon.com/bobstanley

Vestido de Daphni, Caribou liberta em "Butterfly" o lado cardio que há nele. Dezasseis pequenas doses que percorrem o house e o tecno, sobretudo o definido e praticado nos anos 1990. As subtilezas levam o seu tempo a sobrepor-se ao utilitarismo rítmico, mas é um caminho que merece ser percorrido.

This horrible reality must be exposed and defeated. I am not writing this to help Israel’s haters, but to help save my country and identity. Many Israelis are fighting to oust our current evil regime and its thuggish protégés. www.jewishnews.co.uk/settler-viol...

This is Najmeh Mohammadi, 23, from Mashhad. She was charged with “apostasy” and detained on January 10 by the regime in Iran. Her execution could happen at any moment. No crime that justifies this. No system that should allow this. Just a life about to be taken. Speak up.

Grande mulher - a iraniana, claro, não a bifa morcona com o seu cartaz piedoso e trendy.

BREAKING: Several people were injured near Jerusalem after an Iranian ballistic missile struck the town of Eshtaol. The missile, carrying a warhead of several hundred kilograms of explosives, caused extensive damage.

Never forget what Hamas did on October 7. Never forget the horrific show they put on when returning the Bibas family bodies. All the people who want peace and prosperous lives for Jews and Palestinians alike, understand that Hamas will never concede to that.
