If there’s anyone who knows how to get a group of musicians (in different places) to play an elaborately crafted cover, it’s Jordan Olds. And in his latest edition of Two Minutes to Late Night, he recruited Ted Leo to lead a cover of the Replacements’ “Kids Don’t Follow,” off their 1982 EP Stink. Dressed […]
While fans may be enjoying Lana Del Rey’s poetry collection (yes this is still happening), they’re also eagerly awaiting any hint of new music. And last night (Aug. 6), she delivered a teaser of a new track called “Tulsa Jesus Freak.” The Instagram post shows Lana sitting in a candlelit room with a phone in hand […]
After sharing “Scarlet” a couple weeks ago, the Rolling Stones have now issued a visual for the previously unreleased 1974 track. Directed by the filmmaking duo Us, the socially distanced shoot took place at the iconic Claridge’s hotel in London. “Scarlet” stars Paul Mescal, who’s just been nominated for his role in the Hulu series Normal People.

Roger Waters continues his series of socially distant performances with two deep cuts from Pink Floyd’s 1979 LP, The Wall: “Vera” and “Bring the Boys Back Home.” “The Vera in question is Vera Lynn. She was an English singer, songwriter, very popular during the Second World War,” Waters said in a statement. “Her biggest hit […]
The Prince Estate went into the vault for another previously unreleased song, “Cosmic Day.” The track was recorded on November 15, 1986, at Sunset Sound, Studio 3, with engineers Susan Rogers and Coke Johnson. “While the song had floated among ardent collectors as a small snippet, the full version reveals Prince at his most psychedelic,” reads […]
With only weeks until the release of S&M2, Metallica shared a high-octane performance of “Moth Into Flame” from the live concert movie. For the song, which first appeared on the 2016 double-LP, Hardwired… to Self-Destruct, both James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett take their guitar solos off the stage and into the symphonic section — giving those who […]
Kesha is back with a new video for “Little Bit of Love,” which comes from her latest LP, High Road. Known for her off-the-wall and, at times, goofy ideas, Kesha takes us into her dreams where she imagines Mr. Peep$ as a life-size human with a feline face (of course). The dynamic duo explore the […]
The Streets’ Mike Skinner recruited Joe Talbot, frontman of British post-punk act Idles, for his vivid new video for “None of Us Are Getting Out of This Life Alive.” The clip finds Skinner posing next to a car against a bright orange sky. Later, he hangs out in the back seat of a golf cart driven […]
Since the Newport Folk Festival, like almost every other festival, had to postpone this year’s event. But it still held a virtual livestream that featured a sweet performance of Gillian Welch’s “Everything Is Free” by Courtney Barnett and Phoebe Bridgers on Sunday (Aug. 2). Set up in their respective homes in Los Angeles and Melbourne, […]
Flying Lotus’ new video for “Remind U” is as psychedelic as the song itself. The clip, directed by Winston Hacking, builds on the surreal visual style of his 2017 “Post Requisite” visual. The collage-style piece simply pans left to right, revealing a landscape of wild images, including a fish spaceship, alien-like creatures, vintage cheerleaders, lightbulbs, […]
