Eh.

Get it here.

First review?

“This should be re-named as the Liberal Media Bubble Defender, the only thing the creator did was add some right leaning websites to a list, there is no algorithm or method, it’s a simple bias list.”

Fight!

An ongoing project (started by artist Levee) at an underpass connecting the 1 train to the L at 14th street and 6th Avenue in New York city.

Subway Therapy, where people are invited to add their own messages of positivity and hope, actually predates the Trump election/ alt-rightpocalypse but has become especially relevant since.

We Cut Corners – video for new single Of Whatever

01. Indie/alt/folk duo We Cut Corners have been busy this year, putting the finishing touches on third album The Cadences of Others.

02. Hefty shoes to fill: previous long-players Today I Realised I Could Go Home Backwards and Think Nothing were both Choice Prize nominees.

03. Streaming above is the video for Of Whatever, directed by Jon Hozier-Byrne. Evoking the sense of panic that 2016 has neatly been enveloped by, it features model Megan O’Malley sleeping through life/drowning in a shallow bed. Fun for the whole family.

04. Catch them tomorrow night in the Roisín Dubh in Galway, and on Saturday night in the Button Factory in Dubland.

Verdict: A lush, densely-arranged take on the band at their more usually considered bodes for a big-sounding LP.
