Or they listen to it and don’t find it good.

Some prog is good.
Some is pure boring oul lad shite though.

yeah prog can range from Television to stuff like Yes and Gentle Giant

Can everyone who has ever got hot under the collar about these scores and what bands get and what they deserve and what it all means please remember stuff like this happens?

the scores are meaningless because everybody changes based on what side they woke up out of bed that morning, it’s all a bit of fun

Brutalism and Joy are great and then yeah they’ve taken quite a nosedive with Mono and everything around it.

Saw them do an instore for Joy at Spillers and it was a really excellent show. Hope they come back with a better record next time around.

s/t third album is well underrated and Old Waldorf is a superb live album. I reckon they’re worth a HGATR

I found them very enjoyable over their first two albums. They are probably overscrutinised I think, they seem to be bigger than really they deserve and don’t seem to have stopped over the last few years so a backlash was inevitable. Lyrics regularly make me wince. I am glad I saw them just playing gigs in Bristol, that is where this kind of band fits perfectly really.
