It’ll never be released, only screened, and I’ve been watching in envy from Australia as it has toured the UK. Now I get to see a rare screening about one of my favourite comedies at one of my favourite places in the world. Perfection. Had tickets for Dublin in March but got covid instead.

Sounds like they are trolling or aren't keeping up. The cream of the Bbritish Post punk bands are playing with dry cleaning, yard act, wet leg, fontaines dc, idles, black midi,squid Loads of bigger more mainstream indie rock with Foals, Wolf Alice, Sam fender, inhaler, blossoms. Some of the older guard supergrass, the libertines, primal scream, the Jesus and Mary chain, elbow and noel. And several american indie big hitters like phoebe bridgers, mitski, big thief. There is a massive amount of indie there this year. When they say 'Indie', they mean people stuck in the mid 2000s who exclusively listen to Franz Ferdinand, Arctic Monkeys, The Fratellis, etc. The word indie has become so indelibly tied to them over the last decade and a half with a big subset of millennials. Not this millenial though! I'm all about the current crop that you've mentioned, especially Fontaines, IDLES and Yard Act! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends on age, for my age group it means all the Brit pop acts, those slightly old it means Madchester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're collectively classed as Britpop though. Oasis, Blur, Suede and The Lightning Seeds would rarely be classed as 'Indie' in a modern musical context Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEGATRONICMEATWAGON Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 One man's trash, is another man's treasure. I always find it a bit redundant to think there's not enough on offer to have a brilliant time at Glasto. At the first poster I thought to myself there's not so much for me this year, but having delved a bit deeper, there's a considerable amount of bands/artists I'd like to see over the three main days now. That's also down to my lack of research due to other commitments, but it's Glastonbury... there's quality all over the place. Perhaps at a push I'd say that West Holts seems to be lacking (perhaps the wrong word as it sounds too negative) any megastars or legends that they've had in the past (Q-Tip, CeeLo, WuTang, Jaenelle Monae, Lizzo, the Jacksons, Kool & the Gang, plus more), but perhaps that stage is suffering from lack of touring acts or artists having a backlog of their other gigs and tours etc. Even without that element on WH, there's plenty of great bands to have a wicked time there and it's also a chance for future megastars to shine. For example, the Park looks great and I don't normally spend time there that much. Also, the whole thing is subjective anyway! Please send me a ticket if you'd not like to go after seeing the full line up 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have already updated the schedule (e.g. new names on Sunday in The Temple) Do you think you could re-run the script? Amazing job nevertheless, I was convinced I'm going to have to wait another 24hrs before some madman inserts the full line-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clash of NoW and Herbie Hancock is killer though! Every single word in this. You have read my mind. Are you me @zeppelin ?

Yeah, there are different flavours of "indie music" from every year since punk really. It's a bit of a catch all covering loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto Schillaci Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 1 hour ago, BBC7BBCHEAVEN said: That's my point though, hardly new and hot music is it? IDLES, Supergrass, Fontaines, St Vincent, Foals, Wolf Alice, Haim, Phoebe Bridgers all old hands for UK gigging Foals have a new album out in the month of the festival and a double album just the other side of c*vid. Which is three albums in a very short time in real terms. How much more current do you want for a headline act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
