“Wow, I really care what goes into Spotify an editorial playlist dedicated to representing a specific regional scene,” no one ever said. At least until now.
Leave it Fat white family are a British rock band specifically dedicated to stirring up controversy with people such as Mac DeMarco And idle movements — feeling left out of Spotify in the big year 2025. And no, it has nothing to do with pathetic royalty payments, fake with artificial intelligence, ICE Recruitment Advertisements or investment in weapons: instead they are angry because the American group Geese were featured on Spindle, a playlist “inspired by the South London windmill scene”, according to its description.
“Trinidad” from Get killed — one of the best albums of the year is the fifth track in the specified playlist, and “Taxes” is one of the best songs of the year – there is also. The collection of “experimental community-driven guitar music” also includes songs from artists such as Man/Woman/Chainsaw, Dove Ellis, Caroline, Maruja, Black Midi and Black Country, New Road. The Fat White family is noticeably absent.

“I just remember my dad working all the time when I was a kid and really sacrificing himself, and I thought that's why we were able to live pretty well,” Winter continued. “I would probably be even more complex about this if I tried to hide it. It's nice to be lucky.”
There's no denying that geese are happy ducks, but for some reason the Fat White Family seems to think that's why they don't eat well enough to live up to their name.
