Examples
“As befits its neo-glam reputation, this month’s English Band of the Century travels with only carry-on luggage. Suede’s glamour, though, is of a distinctly seedy stripe.”
“The foyer of the Colston Hall – soon to be rebranded to exorcise the spectre of the slave trader it is named after – plays host⟳ to, in their words, “the most incongruous sight in the history of popular music”: neo-glam troupe HMLTD, who you suspect⟳ would rather be playing a Transylvanian castle orgy than a thoroughfare in a medium-sized arts venue.”
