I picked up two for the Nottingham Rock City gig 
was a student up there and remember RC well - great venue to watch someone like London Grammarwill be sticking to Glastonbury I think but fear they may be on the big stages now
Agree it's a shame that they'll be probably be on late afternoon on one of the bigger stages at Glasto, they're much better suited to smaller stages and night time. The John Peel set in 2014 was a brilliant way to finish my first Glastonbury, proper goosebumps even when I was so tired I could barely stand. Just watched this to remind me how good they are, and how great her voice is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMO6FGX72q4
Still, clashes permitting I'll go and see them at Glasto as well wherever they play. They're doing the Sunday, but no idea which stage or when. Fingers crossed for Park sub-headliner (Kano is closing it apparently) or West Holts.

Ministry at Rock City was a particular highlight
Yep saw LG at John Peel in 2014 too, and at Brixton Academy
when does Glasto running order come out?
In the last few years it's usually in the last week of May or first week of June, so in the next couple of weeks hopefully. Cracking line up this year for me, fingers crossed there aren't too many clashes!Yep saw LG at John Peel in 2014 too, and at Brixton Academy

I've had a quick listen, it's very good but hasn't grabbed me quite as much as the first. Feels like its missing the slightly more upbeat tracks like Wasting My Young Years and Metal & Dust. Still love hearing her voice though, I'll be down the front for their set at Glasto next week and cannot wait!
I can't get enough of them.
Loved the first album since I heard Hey Now and Strong. Forgot about them for a while, now listening to the new album. Yes it is more of the same, but I can't get enough of it!
I love 'Big Picture' - but then I also love everything Jon Hopkins does too, and he has added his touch on that one.
The album sags slightly in the middle, but some of the bonus tracks on the deluxe version are as good or better than the album tracks! (What a Day and May The Best)

Not really had the chance to listen to the new album yet. I'm also a massive fan of Jon Hopkins since he released his debut CD. He's done some great work with the likes of King Creosote so looking forward to giving it a listen.Loved the first album since I heard Hey Now and Strong.

My favourite from the album. The rest I'm not blown away by but still like it.Big fan of the first album, seen them live twice including Glastonbury.
I am struggling with the new album, yes its very nicely written, her voice is wonderful as ever - but its so one-paced and most are just solo singing for the first 50% of the track, before its overlaid with some very piano / violin / shuffling drum - no stronger songs with more defined melodies like Metal And Dust or Wasting My Younger Years.
I can't imagine every play this album over the first one - shame
Lovely on a Sunday morning, think other bands will appeal more this Glasto
