Getting blown up by a Russian drone to protect my beautiful nation of privatised water companies, boarded up shops, cracked paving, and political-media class who think I’m a racist because I oppose a genocide.
No thanks mate.
@TrveCvltPop Check out have a nice life . Bloodhail is the popular choice but I reckon burial society is the one tbh. Reckon you'd probably really like deathconsciousness and the unnatural world albums
@thesamdriver Another crazy setlist. Was it your first time seeing them ? Will be my third time in London tomorrow. Eden 2022 was so special I don't know how they'll top it.
KNEECAP STATEMENT:
They want you to believe words are more harmful than genocide.
Establishment figures, desperate to silence us, have combed through hundreds of hours of footage and interviews, extracting a handful of words from months or years ago to manufacture moral hysteria.
Let us be unequivocal: we do not, and have never, supported Hamas or Hezbollah. We condemn all attacks on civilians, always. It is never okay. We know this more than anyone, given our nation's history.
We also reject any suggestion that we would seek to incite violence against any MP or individual. Ever. An extract of footage, deliberately taken out of all context, is now being exploited and weaponised, as if it were a call to action.
This distortion is not only absurd - it is a transparent effort to derail the real conversation.
All two million Palestinian people in Gaza are currently being starved to death by Israel.
At least 20,000 children in Gaza have been killed. The British government continues to supply arms to Israel, even after scores of NHS doctors warned Keir Starmer in August that children were being systematically executed with sniper shots to the head.
Instead of defending innocent people or the principles of international law, the powerful in Britain have abetted slaughter and famine.
This is where real anger and outrage should be directed towards.
To the Amess and Cox families, we send our heartfelt apologies, we never intended to cause you hurt.
Kneecap’s message has always been — and remains — one of love, inclusion, and hope. This is why our music resonates across generations, countries, classes and cultures and has brought hundreds of thousands of people to our gigs.
No smear campaign will change that.
Suddenly, days after calling out the US administration at Coachella to applause and solidarity, there is an avalanche of outrage and condemnation by the political classes of Britain.
The real crimes are not in our performances; the real crimes are the silence and complicity of those in power.
Shame on them.
Extremely sad news. The very funny and very lovely Ewen Macintosh, known to many as 'Big Keith' from The Office, has passed away. An absolute original. RIP.
@TrveCvltPop My podcast hours would be mighty high if it had patreon stuff added in as well. Always feels more skewed to the beginning of the year but I guess a new code orange album would do that
@TrveCvltPop Does seem across-the-board there's a bit of a lack of the big names available, they also went so full on for the expected download bands last year that this one was always going to weird some people out. Wish they'd avoided white power phil though. Machine head will smash it
@TrveCvltPop its brilliant, hope it sells well so they don't go back to the old formula of the denim brigade bands. Feels like a great shift and something they should have done earlier really but I guess its hard to turn down maiden etc every year when you know they sell
Newcastle v Arsenal match is exhibit 357 as to why clubs shot themselves in the foot when they treated the Diaz goal vs Spurs as a Liverpool/Klopp whining thing.
Dismissed the concerns and in doing so backed PGMOL's stance of no accountability. And it only gets worse.
Would love a live listen along of @TrveCvltPop listening to the latest puddle of mudd album , im so equally happy and devastated I've come to know it's existence 🤣
@TrveCvltPop If anything it's me just double down on going in on the discography , does help that it's not too dauntingly huge either. Think this one of the best episodes of any iteration of this podcast to date
