Britpop is back! For my Guardian debut, I interviewed AG Cook, Nia Archives and Rachel Chinouriri - artists who all have albums that play with Britpop and national identity. What does Britpop mean in 2024? theguardian.com/music/2024/apr…

God bless Paul Weller playing with his Palestine flag and speaking about the dead children tonight. We need to say it out loud, everywhere, every time.
Ryusuke Hamaguchi is “interested in listening and hearing the voice of the voiceless; the voices we don’t necessarily hear,” @Eiko_Ishibashi tells @ben_bt. “That’s also how I want to make music.” @guardianmusic theguardian.com/music/2024/apr…
Lots of fun putting together this piece on the Butthole Surfers and their inimitable world of noise and chaos. theguardian.com/music/2024/mar…
It was a true honour to interview one of my favourite musicians of recent years, @TierraWhack, about her magnificent new album World Wide Whack and the bruising journey she's been on to write it. theguardian.com/music/2024/mar…

I genuinely believe tulips have gotten more beautiful in the last four years. I never used to care about them, but now every April I go around overwhelmed almost to tears with aesthetic pleasure over tulips, like some gay Dutchman in 1634

Today in @thenation we have a piece by Lujayn, a 14-year-old girl in Gaza, that has floored me every time I've read it. It's about what happened when an Israeli bulldozer came to destroy the house she was staying in, and you must, must, must read it. thenation.com/article/world/…
