Been circling above now for so long. I'm ready to come down. THRASHER will be released on August 21.

The first single, “Plans,” arrives this Friday.

Pre-save and pre-order THRASHER now.

One of Reading Festival's most memorable collaborations arrived in 1994 when Primal Scream were joined by Dave Gahan and Mick Jones for "Loaded". First released as a single in 1990 and later associated with Screamadelica, the song helped redefine the possibilities of British rock and dance music.

Matt Berry's glorious take on the theme from 'Rainbow'. Check out the spectacular psychedelic breakdown that was always withheld from us as kids 😀

Taken from his Television Themes album (2018) with The Maypoles on Acid Jazz. Hugely recommended.

How can be most successful it’s not started yet….supposedly poor ticket sales as prices are sky high along with visa issues for fans entering so bit of bullshit again. #FakePresident

[BBC Sport @BBCSport]

Donald Trump has given an update on the visa situation for people wanting to enter the USA for the World Cup.

When somebody says keep original ethos but think let’s make it 2026 looking. No thanks.

[Football Away Days @FBAwayDays]

Just my opinion, but I think Newcastle’s new home shirt is possibly the most hideous football shirt I’ve ever seen.

There's a part of being a dog owner we don't talk about enough. We all know, deep down, that one day the Rainbow Bridge will come into view-but most of us do our best to tuck that thought away, somewhere far in the back of our minds. We focus instead on the wagging tails, the muddy paw prints, the quiet companionship on long days and even longer nights.
That's the trade we make without ever signing a paper.
But when the time comes, and our best friend, our shadow, our loyal partner crosses over, it leaves a space that never quite fills back in. Not really. You can clean up the toys, put away the bowls, even convince yourself you're "moving on," but that silence... it lingers.
That's why getting another dog can feel like such a battle.

It's not about not loving dogs. It's because you loved one so deeply that the thought of walking that road again, knowing exactly how it ends, feels almost too heavy to carry. You remember the last look, the last walk, the last time they rested their head on your knee... and you wonder if your heart can take that kind of goodbye again.
But if there's any truth in all of it, it's this: they were worth it.
Every single moment.
And maybe, just maybe, the reason it hurts so much is because of how much love there was in the first place. 🐶💛

Embarrassing.

Robert Kenyon thinks pulling a pint after being interviewed makes him more electable, it doesn’t.
On Ukraine- I’ve changed my mind.
On Brexit - I don’t understand what I posted.
On anti-vax claims - I got my vaccine.
On Carol Voderman - I only made a crass joke.

@joannaccherry Keep fighting the good fight….the truth will prevail.

[Joanna Cherry KC @joannaccherry]

Don’t be fooled. Nicola Sturgeon (wife) is not being held responsible for her husband’s crimes. As leader of the party she is being called to account for her deliberate frustration of the legitimate scrutiny which might have revealed those crimes. The distinction is 💯 clear.

Get this retweeted far and wide. It was as sinister as ever this season

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

“What kind of a depraved monster slices off a woman’s breast while she is being gang raped, and throws it into the dust to be used as a plaything? What kind of a twisted pervert turns rape into necrophilia by shooting a woman in the head while he is still defiling her?
What kind of ‘freedom fighters’ go into battle with a set of handy Arabic-to-Hebrew phrases, including ‘take off your pants’, ‘lie down’, and ‘spread your legs’?
What self-respecting human being presses nails, scalpels, a hammer, an axe, screwdrivers and other household tools into a woman’s genitals?
How hard do you have to rape someone, and with what, to shatter their pelvis? Who shoots a young girl in the face and then films her mutilated corpse on her brother’s mobile phone?
The answer is: Hamas terrorists. This is the stark reality of what they did to men, women and children on October 7, 2023. And the world must never forget.”

Frankly I don’t give a fuck if this is knee jerk reaction but fucking do one Danny and take majority of that dross with you. Another rebuild utter pish.

Fuck off.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

Really looking forward to reading this from @NeilSimmy8. The football story is obviously very strong, facing Gullit and Platini. Aberdeen, Gothenburg glory, trophies, that challenge on Durrant, but also the personal journey and finding his father after 60 years. @PitchPublishing

[Alan @youmayremember]

Absolutely agree.

[Football Tweet ⚽ @Footballtweet]

🇦🇷🗣️ Marcelo Bielsa back in 2024: "I am sure that football is in a process of decline. It is becoming less and less attractive because what made it the best game in the world is not there anymore."

"If you let a lot of people watch football, but you don't protect the pleasure of what they watch, that favours business, because the business is that a lot of people watch football."

"For me, the introduction of technology (like VAR) does a lot of harm to football. This sport has a particularity: when it becomes completely predictable, it loses its appeal."

"As time passes, as fewer and fewer footballers are worth watching and as the game produced is less and less enjoyable, this artificial increase in the number of spectators will be interrupted."

Do you agree with Marcelo? 😳

[Alan @youmayremember]

Terrible decision.

[Rangers Football Club @RangersFC]

Rangers today confirms Findlay Curtis has joined Kilmarnock on-loan until the end of the season.

He now joins the Rugby Park club, led by Neil McCann, with everyone at Ibrox wishing Findlay the best for his time in Ayrshire.
