Yesterday, Courtney Love posted an Instagram video offering some updates on her years-in-the-making next record, which will mark her first new work since Hole’s 2010 LP Nobody’s Daughter. In the clip, Love confirmed that the album is “done,” but revealed some startling context to the long germination time—a mystery 2019 illness that almost killed her.”I went to England in 2019, and when I went there, my body just exploded,” Love recalled in the clip. “I lost all my hair. I was about 100 pounds. And they told me I was going to die. I didn’t believe them.”According to Love, her…
Liam Gallagher has claimed that his Pretty Green clothing brand was “stolen” from him by “vultures”. The Oasis frontman founded the menswear label in 2009, with its name coming from the 1980 song of the same name by The Jam. He responded to an X user yesterday (August 15) who asked him why he sold the brand, writing: “I didn’t sell it it was stolen from me by vultures who wouldn’t know how to dress a fucking salad let alone the youth.” Gallagher did not spell out who he was referring to as “vultures”. Pretty Green was bought by JD Sports after falling into administration in 2019, with the sale being…
“Manson is the big bang of true crime,” Joe Berlinger tells me over Zoom from New York on a muggy summer afternoon. When we talk, it’s been 57 years and two days since Los Angeles woke up to news that Sharon Tate, the pregnant wife of one of Hollywood’s hottest young auteurs and a budding movie star in her own right, was stabbed to death in her home in Benedict Canyon, brutally murdered alongside four other people. Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, a middle-aged couple who owned a local chain of grocery stores, would be found dead in their Los Feliz…

Fontaines D.C. brought out Kurt Vile for ‘Roman Holiday’ during their set at La Route Du Rock – check it out below. The Dublin band closed out the final night of the festival at Fort de Saint-Père in France yesterday (August 15), while Vile and his band The Violators performed on the same stage earlier in the day. Vile then appeared during Fontaines’ set and played ‘Roman Holiday’ with the band. The collaboration was particularly fitting, as Fontaines frontman Grian Chatten has spoken about the ‘Skinty Fia‘ song being substantially inspired by Vile in the first place. The set also saw Fontaines once again air the two…
Lewis Capaldi made a self-deprecating nod to a Florence Welch lyric while onstage at Sziget Festival – check out footage below. The Scottish singer was appearing on the festival’s main stage in Budapest, Hungary on Thursday (August 13), where he performed immediately before headliners Florence + the Machine. “Is everyone looking forward to Florence + The Machine,” he asked the crowd to cheers, before launching into one of the most searing lines from the ‘Everybody Scream’ track ‘One of the Greats’: “Must be nice to be a man, and make boring music just because you can”. After chuckling and pointing to…
Dee Snider and Kelly Osbourne got locked into a war of words after Kelly accused the Twister Sister vocalist of diminishing her late father’s musical contributions. READ MORE: Ozzy Osbourne, 1948-2025: culture-smashing revolutionary that redefined rock and reality TV The spat kicked off on social media earlier this week, seemingly triggered by Snider suggesting that Ozzy’s songwriting contributions were overstated on the credits of his solo and Black Sabbath material. When a fan brought up Motörhead‘s Lemmy, who is credited with co-writing a number of songs on Ozzy’s 1991 ‘No More Tears’ album, including ‘I Don’t Want to Change the World’,…
Phil Collins has said he has not had a drink in three years after what he described as “dark times” with alcohol addiction. The former Genesis singer and drummer recently revealed that his alcoholism left him critically ill and on life support in 2024, with his children travelling to Switzerland amid fears that he might not make it. In a new interview with Prog, he has given a more hopeful update on his health. “Physically now, I reckon I’m A1, 100 per cent,” he said. “I’ve worked at it. Haven’t drunk for three years. I do physio three times a week, to bring me up to speed.…
Executive-produced by Metro Boomin, Monster is dominated by infernal blips and synths over punishing trap drums. Metro’s joined by a tight-knit group of Future’s best and most trusted producers (except Mike Will, who was likely running off with Rae Sremmurd at this point): Southside, TM88, Nard & B, Will A Fool, and DJ Spinz. Monster wouldn’t be what it is without the beats sounding as feverish and disheveled as the emotions Future poured over them. The head-spinning fervor of “Fetti,” chest-caving gloom of “Hardly,” and eerie dysfunction of “Wesley Presley” shouldn’t even make sense next to each other. Past the…
Selena Gomez is denying accusations that she defrauded investors in Wondermind, which she co-founded with her mother Mandy Teefey and their former business partner Daniella Pierson. Earlier this week, investors filed a suit against the company and its founders, claiming they had invested nearly $1.2 million into Wondermind Global Inc. and were misled about the organization’s infrastructure, leadership, and resources. Gomez, Teefey, and Pierson, along with Wondermind, are being sued over counts of alleged securities fraud, common law fraud, breach of contract, and more. In a statement provided to Rolling Stone on Saturday from Gomez’s attorney, Mathew S. Rosengart, Gomez…
