The flies and the cattle- bovine and bemused- by the brass buttons and the pale faces- and the last rites- oblivious to their heinous deed

Don’t really post here much anymore but just bought this yoke. Banger after banger- just astounding.

Could get behind Dept. of GWAR!!

Amongst the best British (or Irish or anywhere)lyricists of all time. Descriptions like legend/genius so overused but in Nigel’s case, deserved. Insightful, funny, profound, etc.

New @sonsofsu.bsky.social album is out and it's a cracker.

I've always had a bit of a Midnight Oil vibe from them. Relentless, spikey pathos.

The reviews are in.

An album full of barely contained anger and acerbic wit, interspersed with moments of tenderness and beauty. I can’t recommend this album from @sonsofsu.bsky.social highly enough. Go listen
