The Culture Club frontman posted the song on social media over the weekend, accompanied by the Hebrew title ‘עוד נרקוד’ and the caption: “Shalom.” Its opening line, “You say genocide, I say war”, rejects the description of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza as genocide, presenting it as a response to the Hamas-led attack on the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, where 344 civilians and 34 security personnel were killed and 44 people were taken hostage. Boy George also uses the song…

Timing, as they say, is everything. And, arriving almost 10 years since they first formed in Brighton, and more than four since their 2022 debut EP ‘’Til The Stream Runs Dry’ tipped them for intriguingly grubby, underground success, jazz-punk band Opus Kink have taken the road to their debut album at a glacial pace. The reasons for ‘The Sweet Goodbye’’s lengthy gestation are standard issue for a relatively small band: a classic mathematical problem of too many day jobs plus not enough time or money. But the musical landscape slows for no band, and the alternative world that Opus Kink…

Looking back, the dark, claustrophobic brand of UK drill pioneered by Peckham collective Zone 2 in the late 2010s is miles away from the more sanitised and commercial offshoots of the genre that have blown up in the years since. With members facing prison sentences, others fading into obscurity, and the likes of Kwengface and PS Hitsquad only recently finding success with solo pursuits, the group burned bright and fast; but their role in pushing UK drill into the mainstream is undeniable. “I see our influence in a lot of places, and it’s truly humbling,” PS tells NME over video…
Willie Nelson is speaking up against the ongoing construction of data centers across the United States. The musician released a statement on social media condemning the “loud, water thieving, light polluting” hubs that are “invading our land.” Nelson wrote that he hails from the Texas town of Abbott and he still has “home there with farmed land where I can still see stars at night.

Evan Rachel Wood isn’t feeling the excitement of the long-awaited Practical Magic sequel. The actress said she was “sad” not to be asked to reprise her role from the original 1998 film. “It is sad, because we bonded with that cast so much as children, and so to miss out on the opportunity to look at that cast and look at that house as an adult and see the history in our eyes, it’s something that can’t be faked,” Wood told Entertainment Tonight this week. “I’m sad that doesn’t get to exist, especially for the fans.” In the original movie, based…
