Foals are nice young men. And math rockers.
On this week's podcast, math rockers Foals are our special guests. Now, while we can assure you that bandmembers Yannis Philippakis and Edwin Congreave are the epitome of nice young men in the flesh, we can also confirm we wouldn't want to be one of the "lazy" and "patronising" bands they refer to in our interview. It's probably the most venomous diatribe we've heard yet, well worth a listen.
Also in the show, Scouse chanteuse Candie Payne - a recent recipient of the Ronson remix treatment - tells us why the modern music scene isn't satisfying her appetite. Is the time now right for her to step into Amy Winehouse's shoes? You tell us.
In the dongles reviews, we have the latest releases from Brakes, Hard Fi, and Remi Nicole.
Finally, as we prepare to head to Reading and Leeds this weekend, we look back on this year's summer festival season. Was Latitude the best of bunch? Was the biggest trend - beside the mud and the increased corporatism - a load of moaning? And have you decided that it's thus far and no further - or will you back again next year?
