Keanu Reeves brought his band Dogstar to The Tonight Show to perform their anthemic song “Joy.” The group, which also includes Bret Domrose and Robert Mailhouse, offered a moody rendition of the rock number, off their 2026 LP All in Now. All In Now, released in May, marked the group’s second LP since reforming in 2023 after a two-decade break. Reeves and his Dogstar bandmates reunited in 2023 for their first shows since 2002, which they quickly followed up with Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees, their first new album since 2000’s Happy Ending. Although Reeves is still focused on his acting career, he…

The girl group’s new five-song EP, Wild, is out now Katseye shared a music video for their new song, “Hootie Frutti.” The track comes off the group’s EP, Wild, which is out today. The video, directed by Alfred Marroquin, showcases underground Brazilian party led by Katseye. It features a raucous Latin beat alongside equally raucous dance choreography, with the singers clad in vibrant, colorful ensembles. Water eventually rains from the ceiling, dousing the still-dancing group members. Katseye’s EP features five tracks, including “Animal,” which they performed earlier this week on The Tonight Show. The release marks the group’s first recording…

Ever since their triumph at Glastonbury’s Emerging Talent Competition in April 2025, you’ll have struggled to find a buzzier British guitar band than Westside Cowboy. Packing out multiple sets at The Great Escape 2025, the Manchester-formed group were soon tied down to Island Records, Wildlife Entertainment (Arctic Monkeys, Fontaines D.C.) for management and thrown into tours with Black Country, New Road, Blondshell and Geese. Suitably, the former NME Cover stars’ self-proclaimed ‘Britainicana’ sound feels neatly perched between those three artists. What arguably makes the quartet’s bog-standard concoction of bass, drums and guitars so heartfelt and immediate is their chemistry. Somewhere…

Orville Peck shared a new single, “Already Gone.” The song comes off his forthcoming album, Mule, out Sept. 18 via Warner Records. “Already Gone” was produced by Jay Joyce and written by Peck with Jacob Portrait. It features Peck’s five-piece band playing alongside Molly Tuttle, Ketch Secor, and Ry Jennings.

Girl Talk has always seemed interested in a sort of alchemy from behind the boards. The Pittsburgh-raised producer’s ability to splice samples at the speed of firing elections created his own hyperactive dance-music substance, turning him into a sort of Oppenheimer figure of the 2010s mash-up DJ scene. A similar mind for synthesis exists within Michael Christmas and Chris Crack, the pair of MCs that joined together to complete Girl Talk’s latest project, Don’t Come to My House Sharing Your Location. Comedy and dry wit are part of both the Boston and Chicago rappers’ bags, providing a cover for sensitivity…

Even before he reportedly pulled a gun on the band who had hired him, the very concept of pop-opera madman producer Phil Spector working with the Ramones—a gloriously threadbare band by design—might have felt like a mismatch. Following the alleged stick-up, the fruit of their union arrived in the form of 1980’s End of the Century, a record that works by the skin of its teeth by pulling each instrument apart in the mix and layering each sound until the music towers over the band itself.Kansas-by-way-of-Boston punks Caufield Schnug and Lira Mondal, who play together as Sweeping Promises, are more…

In an interlude during the final stretch of DOOMED!, an unidentified woman lays out the album’s thesis: “Break ups are… tough.” There’s a wincing smile in her voice, and the pause she takes is deep enough to hold all the complexities and contradictions that are revealed when it’s time to cut bait—every argument, regret, sigh, swoon, and silence. Throughout the album, Open Mike Eagle takes that pause, stretches it wide, and turns it upside down, dumping the contents of a recently ended five-year relationship onto the floor. To do this kind of post-mortem on a partnership requires a willingness for…

In 2021, Selena Gomez, her mother Mandy Teefey, and The Newsette founder, Daniella Pierson, launched Wondermind with the goal of making costly mental health tools more accessible. The media platform’s website, which has a sign-up for its newsletter, describes its origins: “One day, we were all talking about it and realized there was no easy, inclusive space where people could come together to explore, discuss, and navigate their feelings. So we thought, why not make it happen? And Wondermind was born.” Now, five years after it began, Wondermind and its founders are being sued by investors who claim they pumped…

Troye Sivan just dropped “She’s The Best,” the first single off his upcoming album of the same name — and there’s a surprise cameo on it from his close friend Charli XCX. The track is an adoring portrait of an unnamed woman, with Sivan coolly narrating everything about her: her appearance, quirks, overall demeanor. Maybe they’re mundane observations to the average person, but to Sivan, every detail is magic. “That girl, wow,” he sings, awestruck. “She’s the best.” “She’s The Best” was written and produced by Sivan, Jack Antonoff, Leland, Styalz Fuego, and 1975 drummer and Charli XCX husband’s George…
