🎧 Entrevista exclusiva con @desperatejournalist

🎸 Después de 'No Hero', Desperate Journalist abre una nueva etapa con 'Gilding the Lily', su sexto álbum de estudio, que llegará el 20 de noviembre de 2026. Con “Terrible Years” como primer adelanto, la banda londinense recupera una energía más directa y guitarrera. El disco también aborda el paso del tiempo, la mortalidad y los cambios que acompañan el crecimiento personal.

🖤 “No estoy seguro de cuánto se aprende de la experiencia de hacer un disco concreto, porque a menudo intentás hacer algo distinto de lo que hiciste antes. Simplemente vas acumulando diferentes formas de trabajar, aprendiendo cosas nuevas y descubriendo que algunas de las que creías saber no eran ciertas.” Rob

🔊 En esta entrevista exclusiva con Radio Britannia, Simon Drowner, Jo Bevan y Rob Hardy hablan sobre la creación de 'Gilding the Lily', la evolución del sonido de la banda y los recuerdos detrás de Grow Up, que cumplirá diez años en 2027. También reflexionan sobre el post-punk, los desafíos de sostener un proyecto independiente y los planes para celebrar una década de uno de sus discos más queridos.

Love live music?
Miss out on The Great Gallagher Grieviousness of ‘27?
Looking ahead to just some of the killer shows I already have booked - in some of the UK’s very best venues (quite a few via @greenmindgigs / @cambridgejunction @theportlandarms ) - taking a (very) charitable average for an @oasis ticket next year - I will see the ALL the following (and more) - each with two or three amazing supports who aren’t @richardashcroftofficial every night - for LESS than the price of watching @liamgallagher balance a tambourine on his bucket hat 🙌🏻 (Again).
Not sour grapes, just great value & simple math, plain & simple.

Roll call - featuring some of THE most exciting artists on the live scene right now (sorry @fontainesband - you would be included if your London Stadium show wasn’t quite such a ‘next level’ price-tag):

@feralfamilyuk
@desperatejournalist
@fatdogfatdogfatdog_
@yardactband
@bodegabk
@bleech_9.3

Simple ask, please:

1. Book tickets in advance (it really helps venues & bands plan for a better future)
2. Follow all the above (and your other favourite independent artists) on their socials & streamers
3. Stream the krapp out of their music and buy physical (direct) where you can
4. If/ when buying tickets you’re given the option to donate to @musicvenuetrust - and you’re able - PLEASE tick that shiz!
5. If they’re serving @fightbacklager on your beautiful night out of choice - drink it up! It’s delicious and supports the above
6. Make memories, new friends and have the bally time of your f’n life!

You gotta make it happen.
