One-word rock star mimicry, bands who shouldn’t reform & the best thing about Taylor Swift

  • Resumen

  • With David asleep on a French sun-lounger beneath a copy of Summer Lightning, Alex and Mark pour themselves a cold drink and consider …

    … the great ska floor-fillers.

    … taking kids to rock concerts.

    … the fate of all bands: “as musicianship improves, vocals decline”.

    … left-field Beatles songs reworked as nursery rhymes.

    … why 2-Tone had pop’s “triple threat” (and the genius of Mike Barson).

    … of the five big acts with all original members intact, only one should reform.

    … how “Tay-gating” became a thing.

    … the secret life of Chris Ballew, former leader of minimal grunge trio the Presidents Of The United States of America.

    … is the Jam a “young man’s concept”?

    … the downside of “Cuddly Liam”.


    … Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran: has normality replaced escapism?

    … and Frank Carter as the new Johnny Rotten.
