Not to wade properly into the discourse very late but I honestly read the landfill indie piece as broadly affectionate! There were some amazing bands on that list and...some others, and together they formed an era of music that meant so much in a v formative period of my life

Some of my fave people currently writing about music contributed and I guess out of context I can see it might appear sneering but I really don't think it was meant to be! We were all in it* together

*the landfill

Anyway Les Incompetents forever, and also the Johnny Borrell solo album actually bangs sorry
