The box set doesn’t release until July (via Rhino), but […]
Dominique Fils-Aimé is a singer with so much soul—and a sound so other-worldly—you’ll be hard-pressed to believe she’s from this modern earth. Her sound is a melodic amalgam of a Sam Cooke-Peggy Lee-too-many-greats-to-name-here mosaic laced with her unmistakably sunlit style. Fair warning: When you first listen to this JUNO-award winner’s newest album, Three Little Words, […]
The always-busy RZA is back with not one, but two new announcements today.

It’s the Wu-Tang Clan leader’s first new release as Bobby Digital since 2008’s Digi Snacks, and promises to […]
Weezer wasn’t kidding when they said that their upcoming album, Van Weezer, would be heavier.

For the […]
Helmet’s cover of Gang of Four’s “In the Ditch” is the fourth single to hail from the upcoming album The Problem of Leisure: A Celebration of Andy Gill and Gang of Four. This is Helmet’s first new song since 2016. Gill, who died in early 2020, was a fan of Helmet from their early days and had […]

A delicate disruptor, Cehryl is a Hong Kong based artist that is quickly building momentum this 2021. With a uniquely sensitive yet rebellious outlook on the ever-changing world, she injects her curiously honest nature into her songwriting.

It seems like just yesterday that Ted Nugent went on Facebook Live to spread misinformation about COVID-19, doubt its severity, and ask the tough question of “Why were there no shutdowns for COVID-1 through -18?” But in reality, that was almost two weeks ago. In a beautifully predictable twist of fate that even professional wrestling […]
