Have you complained about bad fandom journalism in a mainstream outlet in recent months? Do you want to help fund the reporting of people who actually know what they're talking about for the low, low price of $3.50 per month?

"The hedonism of Elastica feels especially relevant in a pop world whose biggest star is Charli xcx. Like brat, Elastica exudes a sleazy smokers’ area glamour" lovely writing by @msclairebiddles.bsky.social on one of the best albums of the mid-90s thequietus.com/quietus-revi...

Reissue of the Week: Elastica's Debut Album is "Untouchable Louche Perfection" | The Quietus

Claire Biddles returns to Elastica's debut album and finds it short and perfectly formed; even with some extra tracks thrown in.

i reviewed the new reissue of elastica by elastica, re-situating it in our present era of short attention spans and brat-coded smokers’ area glamour —have a read!

The Quietus@thequietus.com · 4w ago

'Perhaps others had a different reaction, but I was relieved to find that Elastica’s big announcement was just a reissue of their first album, rather than anything that might chip away at their amber-frozen existence.' Reissue of the Week: Elastica’s Debut Album buff.ly/MaRHU89

Elastica’s Debut Album cover. Black and white photograph of the band, stood against a brick wall with their name in cursive red script above.

third time this year that i have been denied a press ticket to review something for a major uk newspaper bc the pr is not allocating tickets for 'regional' dates.....music industry becoming more london-centric again in context of shuttering outlets/pr favouring influencers over critics feels bad!
