South Carolina’s Supreme Court has overturned two murder convictions against Alex Murdaugh. The former attorney was sentenced to life in prison in 2023 after being found guilty of killing his wife and son on their family estate. At the time, the jury reached a unanimous decision. Now, the court has found Murdaugh did not receive a fair trial by an impartial jury due to interference from Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca Hill. The court maintains that Hill “egregiously attacked Murdaugh’s credibility and his defense, thus triggering the presumption of prejudice, which the State was unable to rebut.” A juror…

Dave Grohl credits seeing 12 members of Trouble Funk squeeze behind the desk as making him want to do it Somehow NPR's Tiny Desk managed to accommodate all six Foo Fighters on a recent office visit, where the group played a five-song set of hits and their Your Favorite Toy single, “Spit Shine,” which they opened with. The cluttered environment seemed to have no effect on the band, which is used to playing spacious stadium stages, as frontman Dave Grohl leaned into the mic to snarl, “You know I don't really give a damn,” before the band took over with…
Thirty years ago Linda Perry almost got killed by the bastards. She had left 4 Non Blondes at the height of their success and was ready to release In Flighthis first solo album which tells, among other things, about his struggle with alcohol. The label wanted to name it 4 Not Blondeswhich left her perplexed to say the least. «I'm like: “Why the fuck would I call him 4 Not Blondes? It's different stuff. As a result, they put the album in the drawer. I said to myself: I have to start doing something else because I'm too involved in…
How much does an indie band earn from a virtually sold out tour in the United States? Does filling the premises 99% ensure good revenue? Judging by the detailed accounts made public by the Welsh Los Campesinos! (don't you know them? Listen here and here, and if you want here too) the answer is: very little. Indeed, in their specific case there is a risk of making a loss. Apparently it is true that what saves the budgets of many small groups who continue to tour despite the increase in costs is merch. Selling t-shirts makes almost as much money…
Drake's Iceman is right around the corner, which means speculation about the highly anticipated album has reached a fever pitch. Charlamagne tha God added to that frenzy on The Breakfast Club on Monday, when he claimed Karol G makes an appearance on the album. This would mark her first-ever collaboration with the rapper. Neither Drake nor Karol has not confirmed the rumors. Representatives for both Karol G and Drake did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone's request for comment. But given Drake's history of collaborating with Latin music artists, a Karol G feature is not out of the realm of…
Released on Warp, “Sol.Hz” is Seefeel's first album after fifteen years of silence on the format long playing. The title literally translates as sun plus electricitybut leaves a smoky ambiguity that is the basis of the return: a surrealist becoming of dilated chords and elusive harmonies that have their roots in shoegaze. The album is arranged as full pressure ambient, and on an appropriate system underground bass emerges which creates an altered and suffocating atmosphere. The protagonist, however, is the percussive dub soul, which marks all the low and medium frequencies with a surgical cut; a presence that, track after…
If it wasn't already obvious that North West, heir to the West-Kardashian throne, has also inherited massive star charisma, take ten minutes to listen to his debut EP. In six tracks, North West traverses the sonic styles of his generation — from nu-metal riffs to rage rap 808s — with a confidence that is, we might say, quite surprising. At just 12 years old, his debut is notable regardless of his famous pedigree. Because even if you come from a family like this, talent must be recognized. And that's exactly what happens with N0rth4evr.The EP opens with H0w Sh0uld !…
The Strokes have played it live several times in recent years, at least since 2021. It started out as a rough jam, then they refined it and now they've released it.It's called Falling out of Loveis a melancholy ballad of over six minutes that Julian Casablancas sings with his voice filtered by an Auto-Tune type effect and is the second taken from the album Reality Awaits which the Strokes will release on June 26, with Rick Rubin producing. Tomorrow they will play it at Late Show by Stephen Colbert live.If on the single cover designed by Glenn Pruyn there is…
