Breed 77 on a decade away, the songs that outlived the scene, andVII There’s a particular kind of band that never quite belonged to the era that produced them, and is therefore never quite dated by it. Breed 77 are one. They came out of Gibraltar into a London that was busy inventing nu-metal, spent a decade and a half being enthusiastically mis-filed by everyone who tried, and then — around ten years ago, simply stopped. Now they’re back, with a new album, VII, out on 13 November, and a UK tour that begins in Bristol ten days before it.…

kroshka__nastya via FreepikIf a music writer opens ten press releases this month, they’ll spot something odd. They all sound like the same person wrote them. Not because the artists share a publicist, or because there’s a house style doing the rounds, but because a growing number of them were drafted, in whole or in part, by the same few AI prompts, all trained on the same diet of prior press releases, all juggling the same set of stock phrases.My AUK colleagues will recognise the phrases. The record that “weaves together” influences. The songwriter “unafraid to bare their soul.” The album…
