    I'd like to think there was eco glitter but its thousands of micro plastics released into soil, still its nice looking. :)

    Edit: Speak of the devil, I just Googled eco glitter and its available, so all good. https://www.ecoglitterfun.com/

    Probably old news but saw Bombay Bicycle Club are also playing Cork Opera House on the Saturday of ATN weekend and a festival in UK the Friday so looks like they will be playing ATN the Sunday.

    I hope they have a bigger marquee, the old Electric Arena tent maybe.

    Jon Hopkins and the national clashing will be a f**kin disaster for me.

    If they play on the same night, hopefully Jon Hopkins plays a set after the main stage closes.

    The Jimmy Cliff time from last year would be perfect.

    I don't mind a bit of glitter myself at festivals although my OH usually rips the p**s out of me when I put any on, but its the only 3 days of the year where I can be in my little festival bubble ignoring the outside world and getting dressed up in clothes I wouldn't normally be seen in :)

    It's a cracker isn't it? I liked the first song too I must say. I'm delighted they've new music out. I have already seen them twice on the current album so it'll be nice to get a new show!

    New Hot Chip is a belter too. Fontaines DC album is out next week too - think most of it was on the EPs but it should be a good one!

    It's roughly half and half new tunes and released tunes. Though the stuff from the older singles will have been re-recorded in the style of production on Big and Too Real, which suits them way more I think than the reverb'd out of it sound from the earlier singles. It could bring more out of the songs.

    7/11 tracks released in some form or other previously. No issue with that really as some are re-recorded versions, was just making the point that it isn't a heap of new new music.

    EDIT: The 'Darklands versions', which is what they are calling the new recordings, of 'Boys in the Better Land' and 'Chequeless Reckless' are excellent.

    Irish Times review gave 4 stars out of 5, though it spends more time contextualising the band than it does talking about the music tbh!

    Are the darklands versions not the ones we already have of those songs? Or the 'new recordings' were released as singles in 2018 is it?

    Oh - my bad. I thought the Darklands ones were the new versions of the old ones.

    Either way, it's all good!

    Yeah, unless the 4 I haven't heard are awful tripe :) it should be a great album, and but of exposure by then we should have a cool performance on the day!

    Went last year and loved every minute. This year will have my niece and nephew with me ages 11 and 6. Can anyone who went with kids last year remember what the prices are like for kids activities? First time taking kids to a festival so not sure what to expect. Thanks
