Word of the day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet politician whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

We don't sell that many records but it means a lot to see that the ones we do end up being really appreciated by people. This one is certainly one of the ones I'm really proud of.

New Order released Movement on this day in 1981. Peter Saville's beautiful cover was based on Fortunato Depero's Futurismo design from 1932

On a Monday night after rehearsal we usually get a message from our guitarist, Rob about good songs he's heard on the @gidcoe.bsky.social & @marcrileydj.bsky.social show whilst driving home. First up last night was this song by The Wave Pictures youtu.be/nXyTxw0NFrI?... Jim Riley on backing vox?
