Article by Marzia Picciano | Photo by Andrea Ripamonti It's been a little over a week since my first viewing of Kneecap live at 3am at Primavera Sound – I wasn't at Spring 2024 and above all, I missed them at Mad Cool of 2024 – yet here we are in a Magnolia summer (therefore, in the outfit of Another festival) overflowing for the first date of the Italian leg of the tour of the most talked about hip hop trio of the last months and years, either for hype, or because objectively Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap And DJ Provaí…

When filmmaker James Keach signed on to direct Gregg Allman: The Music of My Soul, a new documentary about the Allman Brothers Band’s co-founder, he admits he knew the group’s music but wasn’t fully versed in the history. Then he had a conversation with his wife. “‘You have to do this movie,’” Keach recalls her saying. “‘They got me through school.’” It was a good decision by the director, who previously documented the life of Glen Campbell in I’ll Be Me (2014), and co-produced 2005’s Walk the Line, the Johnny and June Carter Cash biopic, and the 2019 Linda Ronstadt…
If he can get away with it, Sean Penn is planning on directing a biopic about the early life of a policeman who was present at the Jan. 6 insurrection. Bradley Cooper would play the cop, according to Variety. Deadline, which broke the story, mentions that the cop is “caught up” in the riots, but elides which side of the divide he’s on. But since Penn is involved, it’s fair to assume it’ll be an indictment of President Trump. Nevertheless, Deadline is calling the script “an unexpected story about friendship,” as opposed to a film explicitly about Jan. 6. The…
Johnny Marr is gearing up for his fifth solo LP, The Age of Everything. Check out the first single, “Spin,” and its accompanying video, below. The full project arrives October 2 via BMG.“The title came to me early in the process and became an inescapable idea,” Marr said in a statement about Everything’s origins. “It seemed to sum up the way I think a lot of people are feeling. It’s all encompassing, but it’s not necessarily a negative statement. There’s a sense of overwhelm in the culture brought about by technology, but looking at it with a different light, there…
Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan and Circle Jerks frontman Keith Morris marvel at the impact that the punk band DOA had in the Eighties in a clip from the new documentary, Something Better Change. “DOA was bigger than life,” McKagan says, heaping praise on the Canadian group fronted by Joey “Shithead” Keithley. “They were, to me, as big as Led Zeppelin. I owe so much to what I am today to him and to his band.” The film, which tells Keithley's story, is now available on streaming. In the clip, Morris recalls seeing DOA opening for X at the…
Donald Trump has claimed that the massive ballroom he's affixing to the White House wouldn't cost taxpayers a dime. Unsurprisingly, the president seems to have been lying through his teeth since the beginning. According to documents obtained by The Washington Post, the White House has known for months that the ballroom would likely cost much more than the $200 million he initially broadcast in July of last year, and that taxpayers would be on the hook for a significant portion of the construction costs. A project summary obtained by the Post shows that in early March, the White House was…
I t’s summer in New York City. Jackhammers pound outside my hotel room at 6 a.m. Rich folks are dropping $10,000 on Knicks tickets. An impatient man at the Pret A Manger bitches at a worker because they are out of Caprese sandwiches. The city can make you feel small and expendable — much like a Stephen Root character. The remedy is finding laughter amongst the indignities. Fortunately, today we have the actor himself, giggling while watching a clip of himself as a Klingon. We’re sitting at a table at Gabriel’s off Central Park, not far from the pied-à-terre where he…
