Amyl & The Sniffers didn't pull any punches as they took the stage in Glastonbury in a fiery set that keeps on giving.
Glastonbury Festival, UK – During a powerful set at Glastonbury 2025, Amy Taylor, the dynamic frontwoman of Australian punk band Amyl and the Sniffers, paused her performance to deliver an impassioned and candid political address to the massive crowd. Speaking from the heart, Taylor expressed her dismay with current political landscapes, stating, "It's such a fucking crazy time to be alive right now. It's so fucking weird. The left and the right politicians don't believe in anything at all between the two of them. They believe in nothing." She then shifted focus to international and domestic issues, declaring, "I'm thinking about the people in Palestine. And all our governments, like we're from Australia, they ain't doing jack shit. I know yours ain't doing jack shit." Taylor continued by drawing a parallel to Australia's history, asserting, "We think about the fact that us as whiteys, we're the fucking colonizers, and that's so disgusting." The artist also criticized educational systems and media, stating, "We don't learn nothing about colonization. We don't learn nothing about sexual education. We don't learn any of the right things. We don't see any of the right things in the media." She concluded with a stark warning about the future, "Shit's going down and shit is fast, and mate, we got AI on the way, that's gonna be even crazier. So buckle up, bitches, shit's about to get weird." Taylor's unfiltered commentary resonated with many in the audience, sparking both applause and discussion, highlighting the intersection of music, activism, and current global events at one of the world's most renowned music festivals.
