40 h. ago ‘She’s leaning into the idea that her image is a gilded fantasy’: how Taylor Swift embraced the showgirl

Swift, who returns with her 12th album in the guise of the ultimate iconic performer, is the latest pop star to take on the 19th-century traditionTaylor Swift has gone through many evolutions over her 20-year career: the guitar-strummer of her 2006 debut, the wide-eyed New Yorker on 1989, the introspective storyteller of Folklore and Midnights. Her two-year Eras tour established her as the defining entertainer of her generation, and after her recent engagement to American footballer Travis Kelce, one of its biggest celebrities. Now, after an unexpectedly brief hiatus, Swift returns with her 12th album in yet another guise: a showgirl.Swift made The Life of a Showgirl with Swedish super-producers Max Martin and Shellback while touring Europe last year. She described the project as a tribute to her “joyful, wild, dramatic” life as an entertainer, and a look “behind the scenes” of the Eras spectacle. Album imagery by fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott shows Swift bejewe...

41 h. ago Eat, sleep, rave, ribbit! How Tribe of Frog became the UK’s trippiest, happiest club night

Playing the oft-reviled subgenre of psytrance, this Bristol event is celebrating its 25th year. Amid the UV paint and crochet frog hats, we find out why it’s thrivingSaturday’s sunset has long gone, but there’s so much UV paint glowing in Bristol nightclub Lakota that I feel I might end up with a tan from it. A throng of ravers throw shapes while a shamanic selector, flanked on stage by two dancers, pumps out squelchy beats. Colourfully daubed faces light up with joy and arms swirl into spacey lasers, ready to break through into a different dimension. For one night only, I am an initiated member of the Tribe of Frog, a Bristolian club night that’s been putting on mind-boggling parties like this for the last 25 years.To mark the occasion, the team has gone mad as a box of proverbial amphibians with the kaleidoscopic decor, but the soundtrack is the same as ever: psytrance. This is a 135bpm-plus, four-to-the-floor, knowingly melodramatic, multi-layered offshoot of trance with mesmeris...

2 w. ago Football Daily | Diego Simeone, Anfield and some shouting in the workplace

Prepare the tiny violins! Someone has been shouting at Diego Simeone! Famously thin-skinned and a bastion of all that is right and pure in this world, the Atlético Madrid manager was sent off on Wednesday night at Anfield after reacting to a fan’s jibes from behind the dugout, following Liverpool’s latest Slottage-time winner in their Bigger Cup tie.While admiring John Waugh’s ‘more is more’ celebration of the extended Bigger Cup format (yesterday’s Football Daily letters), he evoked Albert Camus as justification for his case. As we all know, Camus owed everything he knew about morality and the obligations of men to football, but, whereas life may be meaningless, his love of his team RUA was so deep that when he went to Paris he went to watch Racing Club, because they wore the same kit as RUA, so he could pretend to still be watching his favourite team. ‘After all,’ he wrote (in French), ‘that’s why I loved my team so much – for the joy of victories, so wonderful when paired with th...

3 w. ago ‘People say my music helps them heal’: Canada’s First Nations musicians revitalise the powwow

Confronting the historic trauma of forced assimilation, a wave of artists are rejuvenating hyper-diverse Indigenous cultures in the kinds of festivals that were once forbiddenOn a sunny, breezy August afternoon in Mani-Utenam, a reservation on the Quebec coast for the Innu people, a powwow ceremony is under way. Two sets of drummers beat out a steady rhythm while chanting in tandem, as dancers sway in their traditional, colourful regalia, ringing with the sound of small bells attached to their clothing. It is part of Innu Nikamu, one of the largest Indigenous festivals in North America, but this joyful performance is taking place on troubled ground.This was once the site of a residential school where children were taken away from their families to force them to assimilate to western culture and forget their heritage. Active from the 1800s, such schools were run by the Canadian state and the Catholic church, who would inflict severe punishments on children who spoke their Indigenous ...
