@felthambboy I was hugely into ‘Another Weekend in the City’ which they finally released on streaming a couple of years ago. Weirdly, I think it’s stronger than the actual album, but both are very good. It was diminishing returns from then onwards 😔

@SamChaplin The album is absolutely incredible and I will go. To bat for the second album too but after let’s say it’s a mixed bag

Remembering when I thought Bloc Party were going to be the most important band in the world. Silent Alarm was that powerful.

@felthambboy I think you appropriately egged it, it really felt like that at the time

@SamChaplin Saw them live around that time and remember on the tube after saying to someone with no irony “this is like seeing the Beatles or something “ I might of over egged it

Forgot how crap this is.

Is it as shite as everyone says?? (yes)

googling "like fish try to avoid the skies" only brings up this exact post. did this person invent a new idiom just for this? fish don't "try" to avoid the sky, they simply do, by virtue of their nature and domain. deep. is that what this is saying? is this what shakespeare did

Just found out about recency bias, it's gotta be the best and most interesting kind of bias

@felthambboy @CinemaSwirl Very willing to contradict myself for money / free Pepsi!

@SamChaplin But what if Skate or Pepsi suddenly emailed you to sponsor @CinemaSwirl ?? lol

I’m all for podcasters making money, but a show that has never had ads before suddenly having loads of ads is extremely jarring.
