The New York Knicks have won the NBA championship, and questions are already swirling about whether they will make a trip to the White House to celebrate with Donald Trump. Trump is famously friendly with Knicks owner James Dolan, who invited the president to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals in Madison Square Garden. Trump accepted, leading to logistical chaos in and around the arena. New Yorkers booed him lustily when he was shown onscreen during the singing of the national anthem, standing in Dolan's box along with several of his Cabinet officials, and the Knicks lost the game.…
Article by Umberto Scaramozzino For three-four years now the so-called scene “modern metal” – a label of questionable foresight, but a very useful gatekeeper-proof container – has entered a new phase. One of the exciting ones, because it seems to have brought about that long-awaited generational change that seemed destined to never arrive. Among the names that are dominating this new and discussed life of heavy music, the ones that undoubtedly stand out are Bad Omens That, Sleep Tokens aside, they're probably the fastest-rising project to emerge in recent years.

The UFC's event at the White House was the perfect target for a terror attack: America's elites, clustered around a small octagon in the open air for hours. A chaotic, packed city center. Plenty of cops and soldiers, to be sure, but then again, there are few defenses for a fast, deadly drone. As I sat through the event last weekend, I half expected something to go wrong. We seemed like sitting ducks, in a country that has amped itself up for political violence at every turn. Earlier this week, the FBI claimed that they had foiled just such a…

Fewer than 25 acts have achieved this feat. Additionally, his disinterest in touring in the United States made the tour the highest…
