@johnrobb77 @theQuietusArt Great choices @johnrobb77

To celebrate the release of my memoirs, @theQuietusArt asked me for my top 13 favourite singles thequietus.com/interviews/bak…

@ThatEricAlper Rico...and Tricky

Who is a great artist with one name?

@GhostCultMag @napalmdeath @melvinsdotcom @IpecacRec Saw Napalm Death a few times in @Tivoli_Venue in the 90's and got chatting to @barneyND one one of those occasions - a really nice guy, intelligent and funny, too. Ended the night talkimg too close to Jeff Walker's face (very drunk at the time 😀) #napalmdeath #jeffwalker

INTERVIEW: Barney Greenway (@napalmdeath) Talks "Savage Imperial Death March" album with @melvinsdotcom, by Tom Osman (@IpecacRec, @freemanpromo) youtu.be/rRTbOwbvbDo

Been bingeing music docs atm, all 3 so far have been interesting and reminded me what led me to start chasing the #beautifuluglymusic dream 30 years ago this year #johnrobb #jrmoores #iggypop #killingjoke #thebirthdayparty #punk #postpunk

@ramseycampbell1 @readswithravi Tje Cr9w Road by Iain Banks

@readswithravi Lolita as I turned seventeen, and I devoured every other book of Nabokov’s I could find.

Have you ever read a book by an author that was so good it made you want to read everything else they've written?

@historyrock_ Erm...Kashmir, obvs!

Stairway to Heaven, Whole Lotta Love and Black Dog don't exist… What's your favorite Led Zeppelin song? 👇🏻

@spinal_bap The picture looks like a promo for a BBC teatime comedy 😀

The seminal British industrial noise band Whitehouse is scheduled to reunite for a performance in Japan, according to reports from April 2026. The performance will feature core members William Bennett and Philip Best.

@johnrobb77 A hrest piece @johnrobb77 ...and a persuasive argument. The Stranglers' sound was another big early influence on me and the myriad sounds that make up #beautifuluglymusic

48 years ago this masterpiece was released : The Stranglers ‘Black And White’ was the first post- punk album louderthanwar.com/the-stranglers…

A good article and lots of formative inflences on me starting out and chasing the #beautifuluglymusic sound, certainly with The Sickhorse Soundsystem. Post-punk, Industrial, Goth, Metal in the mix Ministry and the twisted rise of industrial music | Louder share.google/EFlSVckh17BExT…

@ATRightMovies The Marx Brithers - Duck Soup

@Revolvermag @Pantera Dtag Thr Waters

🐍 With @Pantera's 'The Great Southern Trendkill' turning 30, we ask you this. Let us know what you think, and we'll tabulate the results next week.

@fesshole This is not a Fess...or the reason I signed up. At best, it is a drunken 'confession' to someone who could care less! Bring back ACTUAL fesses (not sure if that's a word...but still!)

When my wife is away, I feed my cat by putting half a sachet of food in his bowl, then add some of his favourite biscuits, chicken flavoured gel and other treats. A little bit of all his favourites - so it's like when I have a thali in an Indian restaurant.

@spinal_bap Ouch! 🤣🤣

The Bobby Gillespie of pink robots.

@spinal_bap Good evening, we are Mull of Kintyre 😁. Having said that I have frequently named bands in ways that mean they aren't radio/poster friendly...so possibly not best placed to comment

What is wrong with musicians? Imagine naming your band Everyone Says Hi, after David Bowie’s worst-titled song.* *Feel free to suggest other contenders for this booby prize. ⚡️

@FocusWales is nearly jere again, a reminder that it is 10 years since The Mayors released their debut album Folie a Deux featuring Penis Envy on.soundcloud.com/KtFzSNfzfVAHfm… #alternativerock #garagerock #beautifuluglymusic #johnrobb #partypirate #jrmoores

This month marks 12 years since The Mayors self-released their first 7" single featuring One Last Cigarette on.soundcloud.com/UQvllj1XNV2leF… and 6 years since All Divided Selves released A Safe Place #SoundClou on.soundcloud.com/yjCkeU8d8x38bf… #beautifuluglymusic #johnrobb #partypirate

@16bitnostalgia I had this as a kid...bit not seen/thought about it for decades!

Who wants a game?
