Ipswich punk-rap duo Bob Vylan grabbed the headlines at Glastonbury Festival over the weekend, but for many readers, the name might be a new one. Organisers of the festival said they were "appalled" after frontman Bobby Vylan led a crowd in chants of "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]".

Police are investigating whether a crime was committed when frontman Bob Vylan led the audience in chants of "Death to the IDF" — the Israel Defense Forces — during the band's set.

Bob Vylan has responded to the uproar over its “death to the IDF” comments at the Glastonbury festival with a statement that doubles down on the artist’s pro-Palestinian position, albeit with less inflamed language and more explanatory context than was found in their concert chant.
