The New Cue #266 March 3: James Ellis Ford, Orbital, F*cked Up, Water From Your Eyes, Nabihah Iqbal, Wild Billy Childish & CTMF, Ben Gregory, Steve Mason, Dry Cleaning

3 March, 2023

It’s Friday again, just like it was last Friday! And the Friday before!

And that means it’s Recommender time, an edition brought to you via lots of WhatsApp messages, a few cow emojis and a couple of “FFS”’s. Language, please! In today’s letter, we’ve got two x An Album To Blow Your Mind, one from Orbital’s Paul Hartnoll and the other from Fucked Up’s Jonah Falco, plus a whole heap of Recommending. Why the cow emoji you say? Don’t know, it just started a few years ago and we stuck with it, it expresses an emotion that words cannot.

This edition, as it is every Friday, is for paying subscribers only. If you enjoy what we do, please subscribe: it costs £5 a month, which won’t get you a pint in a lot of places these days but will get you two editions of The New Cue a week plus full access to our archive. Free cow emoji for every subscriber!

We’ll see you on Monday, when we’ve got a mammoth chat with Steve Mason to get your week motoring. Here’s a playlist to go with today’s picks:

Enjoy the edition, 🐄

Ted, Niall and Chris
