I have a rule that they’re only on sale at gigs to try and flog more tickets HOWEVER there’s an exception for people who win the Mercury Prize and who happen to run the label we’re on so you’re in luck!

And yeah, everything IS political. All the music you listen to, the films you watch, the t shirts you buy, the apps you use, the posts you like, the people you believe, the people you don’t, the people you mourn, the people you don’t, saying “I’m apolitical”, all of it. Everything.

My brother liked them and I used to steal the CD. I liked them me, even if they did wear caps.

I would say I miss the suit but it’d be a lie!! Still got it somewhere!

Hmmm not sure. Maybe ditch the singing and do full on rambling chat for three hours. Just about how lovely life is.

I know I know I know we should just "stick to the music" and shut up, but we can't help it. Bloody lefty snowflakes. It's good to talk. So apropos of absolutely nothing, wink wink, here's something that we were saying on our November tour about the town that I'm proud to call home.

Loudd | Live Report | Benefits, 31/01/2026, Trenta Formiche, Roma

ROMA SHOW REVIEW: “the performance of the Benefits is one of the most disturbing ever experienced.”

*this sounds much nicer in Italian. Thank you LOUDD magazine, it’s an amazing review.

I’m convinced the schedulers listen to Smershpod and react accordingly.

Yeah we sketched it all out around Xmas 2023 going into 2024 so it kinda is a Christmas album in a way. One to put on after the Mrs Browns Boys special.

Hope you get it for Xmas.

There’s an audiobook version that I had on in the van when I was driving on the last tour. It’s grim but gripping. They are all horrific humans in each of their own individual ways.

Having read the Crue biography The Dirt and being the proud owner of *at least* two studio albums I feel I’m a bit of an authority on this, oddly enough, singing is probably one of the least offensive things Vince has ever done!

Calling Vince Neil’s vocals dynamic makes me distrust AI even more than I already do.
