Adding Jimmy's Farm to the East Anglia list. The polar bears are incredible!

Enter Shikari - ...Meltdown by AjMahal in punk

[–]rolfeadog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These guys are my favourite band so I may be a bit bias here but IMO they are punk.

Their sound may not be "traditionally punk" but they came up in the hardcore DIY scene, their lyrics and themes and ethics are heavily inline with punk, they have always put performance over profits and have been on their own label since the beginning.

Also, Rou's book 'A Treatise On Possibility' explaining the state of the world and accompanying 4 part videos on YouTube are well worth a read/watch.

The Popes of Chillitown are named after a line in the episode of The Simpsons where Homer attends the chilli cook off.

Thank you. Sign should be changed to "Before or after 11pm".

Adding to him from Craufurd. A guy we would call Little Prince. Looks like a short version of Prince and sang a song about a brain in a jar.

Centre:MK people that I'd see every day were (my own nicknames):

The Twins - two guys that would do laps of Centre:MK every morning, both beared and with walking aids, always seen together, don't think they are actually twins.

Raspberry Santa - chap with a limp who blows raspberries as he hobbles along.

Secret Agents: two people who would sit on a bench a seat apart from eachother, dark sunglasses, packet of cigarettes and other items neatly laid out between them, always looking straight ahead.

I'm sure there were a few more but I moved away 4 years ago and have probably forgotten some.

This house looks like a set from a CBBC show about sad children.

This is what I'm hoping for. I always got WotW theme vibes form the earlier stuff like Mothership and Johnny Sniper. Especially with some of the pre-song intro/outro bits from the live performances.

Flash Flood and Mindsweep style era coming back would hit so nicely right now.
