Normally, it’s right about now when we’d tell you what to expect next week on SPIN’s Untitled Twitch Stream. But seeing as next Friday is Christmas (and no one wants to spend their Christmas reading a Twitch schedule), we’re providing you with the next two weeks all in one place. Don’t forget, we still have Maxine […]
A few weeks ago, a European record store got its hands on 1970, a limited-edition Bob Dylan compilation featuring outtakes and rarities, plus collaborations with George Harrison. It quickly sold out and Dylan fans were left in the dark on how they could score the coveted part of the Bob Dylan – 50th Anniversary Collection, which […]
Like so many artists, Margo Price had a, well, interesting year. The Nashville singer-songwriter originally planned to release That’s How Rumors Get Started, her third studio album, in May before getting pushed to July. But 2020 had other plans. Her husband, Jeremy Ivey, contracted COVID, a devastating tornado crashed into Nashville and she was raising […]
The Distillers may very well be one of the most important punk bands from the first half of the 2000s. In four years, they released three albums (each more successful than the last), captured a unique sound that molded classic, straightforward punk rock with the attitude and emotion of the decade, and turned frontwoman Brody […]
Matt Cameron expected to be on the road with Pearl Jam for most of 2020. In March, the band released Gigaton, their first new album in seven years, and they planned several U.S. legs and a European run that would have kept them busy for the rest of the year. Those plans, obviously, changed. But instead of […]

To close out Hanukkah, Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters producer Greg Kurstin closed out their ongoing Hanukkah Sessions with a cover of Velvet Underground’s “Rock and Roll.” The band’s late singer, Lou Reed, was Jewish. Grohl issued a lengthy statement on the meaning of the Hanukkah Sessions. As 2020 comes to a close and another Hanukkah ends (my first!) I am […]
You probably saw Foo Fighters performing on that crazy episode of Saturday Night Live that premiered the day that Joe Biden won the election. In a conversation with Zane Lowe at Apple Music, Dave Grohl explained the backstory behind being asked to play that night—which was put together in just a few days. “…Usually with […]
Hanukkah ends tonight and the Haim sisters decided to take the holiday out in style. The trio, with an assist by Thundercat on bass and some new lyrics from playwright Jeremy O. Harris (Slave Play), released their own version of Waitresses’ 1981 tune “Christmas Wrapping” with the appropriately titled “Christmas Wrapping 2020 (All I Want […]
The cover of James Marcus Haney’s new photo book, Fantatics, doesn’t feature a massive arena crowd or rowdy mosh pit — any of the obvious concert imagery one might expect. Instead, it shows two people mid-kiss: eyes largely closed, mouths agape, seemingly transfixed amid a sea of strangers. Haney has “no idea” who they are. […]
