  1. The new single is good but a real downgrade from their previous work. Hopefully it'll grow on me and the new album might surprise me because their four other albums are heavenly.
  2. Yeah completely agreed - even in the video he mentions how back in the day social media was much less personal than it is now where popular users have become personalities. I guess the internet has created so many different small corners that many things are slightly famous rather than few things being extremely famous. For that reason I don't believe any artists can be bigger than Michael Jackson because peoples' attentions are so divided.
  3. No it wasn't aggressive at all I just figured that the video was aimed at a slightly younger audience who never logs off of instagram as memes have changed so much since the various eras of memes that differ from each other greatly (2007/2012/2016). The video is hard to relate to without a strangely obscure and obsessive knowledge of the network of semi-niche instagram accounts that post a weird sort of dystopian content. The speaker exaggerates a lot obviously but with that in mind the video makes more sense than if the memes in question were the 'can i haz cheeseburger' type memes lol Also I'll check out that interview
  4. Did you look at Ditto's instagram account? I think you've missed the point of the video on the first two things you said.
  5. That's my fear too. Hopefully we can be like Brighton and Brentford and build something strong and sustainable.
  6. Exactly lol it's got to only be only studio albums released under 'Aphex Twin' because that would be ridiculous
  7. That sounds horrible lol That's interesting - in the video they speak of how the cigarettes in the video intend to be disposed of and one method included cleaning the filters and for them to be turned into house insulation. I agree with the video's sentiment though that it's better to not produce in the first place than to recycle.
  8. If you liked that one he has another good one about social media. His instagram is @ ben_ditto and if you need context about the type of memes they talk about.
  9. Nah the plans were already in place to build it but COVID and now the supply chain complications and rising material costs because of the Ukraine war delayed the project but I imagine the PL money might afford a few upgrades here and there but it would have been built even without promotion to the PL since 10,000 capacity is tiny even for the Championship/ League One. The project is really exciting because it'll also provide new housing and a new shopping district into Luton's town centre which has been decaying for decades. The new stadium will hold 20,000 people with the capability to increase to 23,000+ with minor expansions which is great because all of the seats at our current stadium are taken up by season ticket holders so no new fans can go to games. It'll also include safe standing for both home and away fans which will be a really exciting way to keep football passionate. But overall, the club are really sensible with money so I trust them completely. As for singings, there are plenty of rumours and players being linked to us but nothing definite so far! Looks like we're trying to take star players from the Championship and League One, as well as B-team players from the PL.
  10. Nah I'm the idiot lol I didn't realise how old the picture was my friend showed it to me earlier today I didn't realise it wasn't that new - but I agree I have no clue how he let her take the picture hahaha
  11. Apologies should've trawled through every thread before posting
  12. I assume the answer is yes, but has anyone in this thread mentioned RDJ being photographed with Arca on her instagram?
  13. Some French youtubers organised an event where volunteers picked up 1 million cigarette ends in 3 hours across France. Whilst this is only a tiny dent in the problem, hopefully people will start to realise the effect that cigarettes have on the environment (they say that if 1 million cigarette ends were picked up every day for a year, that would account for only 2% of all cigarette ends thrown on the floor worldwide) - I've read many times that 1 cigarette end pollutes 500 litres of water with microplastics and other chemicals.
  14. Best app since Clash of Clans!
  15. Lucky you! 1988 was when Luton Town won the League Cup as well which would have meant playing in Europe had it not been for UEFA's ban on English teams after the Heysel disaster. I was very much not alive at that point unfortunately but those were the glory days for sure - we have a chance to relive them if these next few seasons go our way!
  16. It's well worth it. This may get shot down by another user but I'd suggest: Soundtracks for the Blind, White Light from the Mouth of Infinity, and Filth as starting points.
  17. This board isn't very active so I thought I'd create a general thread of everything related to the 2023/24 season in football around the world. To start, I'm so excited that Luton Town are finally back in the top flight of English football. I grew up in the area during the dark era and it's great to see a success story that's deserved and honest. I went to a home fixture against Middlesbrough in the season just past and the excitement around Kenilworth Road was palpable. The promotion will no doubt allow us to build the new stadium with no debt! They're due to break ground later in November and it should hopefully be finished by 2026 which is still a while away.
  18. Swans' 16th studio album is due to be released on the 23rd June through Michael Gira's Young God Records. The singles:
  19. Agreed - not my favourite release of his but it's so refreshing to hear a sound that is new and mature but still consistent with the King Krule style we were all hoping for.
  20. It's been out all day but I've only just found the time to give it a spin.
