finally saw gorillaz after wanting to for 10 years. the wait was worth it

mbv royal albert hall summary: best gig I've ever seen in my life. definitely a fair bit quieter than their normal volume but it gave them so much more for dynamics and made it a way more enjoyable listen. plus the performances were so fucking tight. also got front row so #lol

went on something of a pilgrimage

my bloody valentine tomorrow. feeling not particularly not normal about it

thank you for everyone who tuned in, whether that be today or any show in the last year and a bit. ily all <3

we are live, for the final time EVER in about 25 minutes, from 9-11am gmt. come listen in to The Death of Vapour Trails on urn1350.co.uk <3

in hit club venue "Rescue Rooms" they are currently playing a song from The Best Album of All Time (The Stone Roses Self Titled)

new underscores LP huge day for the unemployed

i mean this with not a shred of exaggeration when I say "just like a flower" by winter might just be one of the single greatest shoegaze songs ever written open.spotify.com/track/5Fj9au...

next week's episode of my radio show, vapour trails (on urn1350.co.uk) will sadly be the last. i've absolutely loved running this show for the year or so i've been doing it, but i just won't have the free time to keep at it after easter. i'd love to have you all listening one more time, though :)

lowk if anyone here is particularly knowledgeable when it comes to writing/recording shoegaze or noise pop vocals, pls pls do hmu or something bc this is starting to drive me insane

happy st paddy's

slowdive - dagger (1993)

i think teenage kicks might actually be the best pop song ever written

sorry if I seem inactive bluesky I've just been exclusively training my g-splitting skills

for less than the cost of a Big Mac, fries and a Coke, you can buy a loaf of fresh bread and some good cheese or roast beef, which you will enjoy much more.

ive always absolutely loved how Norman Blake does backing vox and plays guitar on In Undertow by Alvvays. feels like a real passing of the torch moment, and you can hear his guitar bite in a way that the other songs on Antisocialites can't replicate

when did i last even post a topster

holy woah this is awesome open.spotify.com/album/5tfxM9...

why is recording vocals actually just the most evil and diabolical process ever

i don't really like neutral milk hotel but Holland 1945 and a lot of beer is an unbeatable combo

local idiot gushes over cartoon band rateyourmusic.com/music-review...

the brand new track we debuted yesterday, "anthropocene" by multinational shoegaze band hakubane, is out now on bandcamp (and streaming in near future) go show them some love, you'll be sure to love it if you're a fan of underground shoegaze/alt rock <3 hakubane.bandcamp.com/track/anthro...

Introducing Hannah Spencer MP 💚

gorton & denton news is actually colossal oh my god this is fantastic to wake up to

erm....cheesed to meet you?

don't do much promo for this on here usually but I'm live on urn1350.co.uk with my show vapour trails from 9-11am gmt (in like half an hour!!) we're playing all the best in local notts and sheffield shoegaze/dream pop, and debuting a brand new track by an up and coming shoegaze act! tune in :)

exceptional ‼️‼️

whitelands tonight 🔥🔥🔥🔥

the single so nice you need to own it twice

the pub I'm in is playing Suzanne by Leonard Cohen. what the Fuck

caught a cool little shoegaze bands from notts last night called headgazer doing a free show, v interesting mixes of acoustic driven tracks, electronics and atmospheric post rock shoegaze. def give their debut a go if you have time

how much for a pint of shoegaze ale

im top dog <3

i love it when ticketmaster sends me an email before a gig saying something like "URGENT!!! ACTION REQUIRED ⚠️⚠️" in the title and then the content of the email itself is basically "hi we are ticketmaster you have booked to see a gig! wow!"

so I spontaneously ended up getting given press tickets for westside cowboy the other day as well and wow they do NOT disappoint. love their new EP and the way they come alive in a live setting is fabulous

take a shot every time you hear cameron winter mentioned in the crowd of a windmill scene gig you will think you have 5 hands by the end of it

been a long time since i actually released anything music-y new cover of the song "magnum tonic wine" by ravetank on ninjinskie.net/music

the new album by @whitelands.bsky.social is absolutely phenomenal. really fabulous, melodic songs that rarely lose energy, towing the line between dream pop, shoegaze and more approachable indie. it's pretty, it's addictive - the best shoegaze release to come out of the UK for years.

What is your green?

vapour trails, my radio show on urn1350.co.uk, once again returns starting tomorrow from 9-11AM GMT. i'll once again be playing a big mix of all my favourote shoegaze, dream pop and noise pop. hope to have you listening in :)

super furry animals reunion show???? holy peak

what on earth is the point of pitchfork introducing user ratings. isn't that just RYM but filtered to exclusively the most annoying people on the site

parannoul playing live again we fucking move www.instagram.com/p/DTxTGJ9k06V/

new arctic monkeys song 3pm Thursday my will to live is restored

doing a listen through of every solo beatles album has done nothing but affirm my love for paul

coming up straight into temporary secretary on mccartney ii is truly one of the one-two punches on an album ever

if the rumours about arctic monkeys disbanding are true then it'll be a sad day. i've not been as obsessed with the band as i used to be for a good while now but they made up a huge part of my life and musical discovery, and their catalogue consists of some true modern classic indie rock records,
