Mike D – Thank You
Mike D Thank You A Beastie Boy looks back to the sounds that made the trio great while also drawing succour from the future For the better part of a decade after fellow Beastie Boy Adam "MCA" Yauch died of cancer in 2012, a tragedy that also marked the end of the iconic hip-hop outfit, Mike D, understandably, just couldn't bring himself to make music. "I'd open a computer file, and I'd just feel sadness," he said. The past was too heavy to lift; it kept him from reaching into a well he'd always been able to access with ease. It was ultimately the future that unburdened him: working on songs with his sons, Skyler and Davis, during the pandemic planted the seed... The post Mike D – Thank You appeared first on The Quietus .

An English Western: The BBC’s Gangsters turns 50
This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of a groundbreaking TV series on immigration set in Birmingham. John Quin revisits and ponders its relevance to the current moment Just like before – as Karen Carpenter once sang - it’s ‘Yesterday Once More’. The sha-la-la-la days are over and the woah, woah-ohs you hear on TV these days are the screams of ICE victims. Fascism is on the rise in France and Germany. Here the British tabloids express a naked hatred of immigrants while masked thugs block the streets in Dover and fling Sieg Heils with impunity in Glasgow. The more alert corners of the media make comparisons with the late 1920s and early 1930s, the failing Weimar Republic, the rise of...
