Les Savy Fav’s Tim Harrington on being bipolar: “This thing you love can also be the thing that makes you miserable”
Les Savy Fav frontman Tim Harrington has spoken to NME about the band’s return to recording with their new album ‘OUI LSF’, their first in 14 years – and how it was shaped by his bipolar diagnosis.The New York veterans’ sixth LP comes following an extended hiatus, that saw Harrington turn his hand to writing children’s books and getting a “jobby” job as a creative director, while bassist Syd Butler and guitarist Seth Jabour joined the 8G Band (house musicians on the talk show Late Night With Seth Myers), drummer Harrison Haynes focussed on fine art, and guitarist Andrew Reuland worked in film and television as a writer and editor.Harrison, however, alo endured “a rough period with mental health” after being diagnosed with bipolar during the time between Les Savy Fav albums.“I hear a lot of creative people, when they talk about mental health and getting it together and finally getting on meds, they’re like, ‘Oh, [the creativity] is gone, I can’t find it.’ For me, I had to come to the realisation that it’s always there. I’m always me.

Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders has revealed that he has a “weird” version of ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High?’ that has never been released.In a new interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, the musician was reflecting on the band’s 2013 album AM, as part of the channel’s series 100 Best Albums.“There is a weird version that I’ve got somewhere of ‘Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High?’ that sounds a bit like ‘R U Mine’,” Helders said. “It is really fun to listen to but it just wouldn’t have worked.”“I think once [frontman Alex Turner] is done with something, he really has to feel like he can move on to the next thing, because he has given everything to that moment and there’s nothing left after that, I don’t think.”‘R U Mine’ had been released in early 2012 and saw the band embrace a more raucous, rock-oriented sound.

Hex Girlfriend have spoken to NME about their journey from a low-key collaboration in university halls to high-energy sold-out shows on the London DIY circuit, their “political” new EP, and existing outside of the shadow of a famous father.The industrial pop project of South London-based musicians James Knott and Noah Yorke – the son of Radiohead frontman Thom – explained how they have enjoyed thriving on their own terms.“I just don’t get the fascination,” said Yorke of people comparing the band to his father’s work. “This is a lot more Dead Kennedys than it is The Smile.”Having just returned from a writing trip in Los Angeles, the duo said that new material will likely see them pursue a more political direction inspired by their experiences in the US as it gears up for the presidential election.“The EP is sort of about how fascism hides between the doors of golf clubs,” Yorke said.

Over 100 acts have now dropped out of The Great Escape 2024 in Gaza boycott, with support from Massive Attack
Great Escape Festival in solidarity with Palestine, with Massive Attack also speaking out in support of the boycott.The 2024 edition of the event – which showcases new and rising artists – is due to take place across various music venues in Brighton from tomorrow (May 15) until Saturday (18).The Great Escape is sponsored by Barclays, which has been a source of controversy amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza because of the bank’s financial investment in companies that supply arms to Israel.The issue was first highlighted in a petition started by the promoter How To Catch A Pig and the band The Menstrual Cramps – which has since been signed by musicians including Kneecap, Lambrini Girls, Alfie Templeman, Lip Critic, Wunderhorse and Mary In The Junkyard.Last month, Cherym pulled out of The Great Escape as a result of the festival’s connection to Barclays, before record labels Alcopop and Big Scary Monsters joined the boycott and withdrew from the event.Dozens more acts soon followed suit, with over half the line-up demanding that The Great Escape drop its sponsorship deal with Barclays.Speaking about their decision not to play the festival, Lambrini Girls said: “We will not be appearing at The Great Escape festival this year. This is a targeted approach of a cultural boycott, considering Barclays sponsorship.“Barclays provide financial services of over £1BN pounds to companies supplying military technology and weapons to the IDF, perpetuating the horrors unfolding in Gaza.”Now, 106 artists have cancelled their scheduled appearances at The Great Escape 2024 in total – constituting approximately a quarter of the full programme.

Noel Gallagher defends not doing Poznan at Man City game after Liam calls out “poor behaviour”
Noel Gallagher has defended not joining in with the Poznan at Manchester City’s match against Fulham last weekend, after his brother Liam called it “poor behaviour”.The former Oasis member attended last Saturday’s away game (May 11), which saw his beloved football team clinch a 4-0 win and move closer to the top of the Premier League table.But unlike the huge sea of Man City fans surrounding him, Gallagher refused to join in with the Poznan (where fans link arms, turn away from the pitch and begin bouncing).Images and videos of the moment subsequently went viral, with some people suggesting that the unimpressed-looking Gallagher could have been shooting the cover art for his next album.The High Flying Birds frontman’s estranged brother and former bandmate Liam also called out his “poor behaviour” in a post on X/Twitter.Noel has since spoken out about being spotted at the game during an interview with talkSport.

The Libertines’ Albion Rooms to become residential recording studio and events space
The Libertines‘ Albion Rooms hotel in Margate is set to become solely a residential recording studio and events space.The group opened their own hotel and studio space in the Kent seaside town in 2020, having acquired the keys to the building three years prior.While giving NME a tour at the time, Carl Barât explained: “The band live in three different countries, and the only thing that really binds us without something like this is tour schedules.“To have a place that’s our own HQ and that we all have equal ownership of and equal input in – that was the dream.”The Libertines went on to record their 2024 Number One album ‘All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade’ at The Albion Rooms – which is located at 31 Eastern Esplanade, Cliftonville, Margate.Following the LP’s release, Barât said: “We set up this hotel with grand ambitions and a lot of objectives of which we achieved.“Now, personally, being very close to it and having to deal with a lot more of the runnings and whatnot, I think we’ve done that. And I think what we really need is a studio where the artists can stay there.
