The Sunshine Underground played their first show in nearly 10 years in Manchester last night – check out footage and the full setlist below. Last year, the Leeds indie-dance band revealed that they would be returning for a huge one-off show in their hometown this summer at Kirkstall Abbey, and with two days to go until the reunion, they played an intimate warm-up show in Manchester. They took to the stage at Gorilla last night (July 23), in their first full live performance since they played the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds on December 10, 2016. They opened the 17-song set with ‘Wake Up’ and…
Secrets are an essential part of the hit series Off Campus — and on the show’s newly released soundtrack, Off Campus: The Mixtape (Extra Credit). The team behind the project left Ella Bright, who stars as music major Hannah Wells, in the dark until the perfect moment came to reveal their own surprise twist: Niall Horan recorded vocals to turn her cover of the Foundations’ “Baby Now That I Found You” into an endearing duet. The actress recorded her live reaction to the track, where Horan reveals the news to her: “You don’t know this yet, but you’re about to…
When Jimmy Eat World‘s Jim Adkins wrote one of the greatest-ever musical pep talks, “The Middle,” he might as well have been talking to himself. His Tempe, Arizona band had just been dropped from Capitol Records, and they recorded their fourth album with no new deal in sight. But the 11 lean, hook-packed songs that became 2001’s Bleed American were so strong that they sparked a major-label bidding war, and the band signed to the now-defunct Dreamworks Records. The album, and the still-ubiquitous “The Middle” in particular, ended up defining Jimmy Eat World’s career. They’re out on tour now marking its…
Reacher star Alan Ritchson has once again slammed Donald Trump, calling the president a “bitch” and a “fucking rapist.” The outspoken actor's latest comments came in an interview with the Happy Sad Confused podcast, where he joked about having the reputation of being a “loose cannon” with his words. “I'm just saying the shit that everybody should say if they give a shit about humanity. Everybody else should feel like I feel,” Ritchson said. The actor then launched into a tirade about the slow drip of the Jeffrey Epstein files and the president's alleged association with the infamous financier and…
Dickinson surprised guests at Comic-Con party to cover Mott the Hoople's “All the Young Dudes” Talk about a rock crossover we didn't know we needed. On Thursday night at San Francisco's Comic-con weekend kick off party, Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson surprised fans and joined Billie Joe Armstrong's the Coverups onstage. The rock icons dove into an impassioned cover of Mott the Hoople's classic “All the Young Dudes,” with Armstrong playing his signature red Les Paul as he and Dickinson harmonized. Both Dickinson and Armstrong have a storied history with the song: Dickinson recorded a version for his 1990 solo…
Soldiers die in war. But ever since the death toll in Vietnam broke a generation's appetite for war, the American public has been uniquely sensitive to casualty counts as a result of our military actions abroad. We venerate fallen servicemembers as heroes, no matter how just the conflict they died in was. But now, Donald Trump's administration is reportedly trying to say that some deaths don't count. On Thursday, the Pentagon's official roll of servicemember deaths as a result of the Iran war suddenly changed, with four names dropping off the list, bringing the total number from 18 down to…
Kristin Hersh has shared “Moths”, a new single that anticipates “Sugar On Blackstone”, her next solo album, out September 18th via Fire Records. The song moves around the theme of inspiration and the difficulty of recognizing it in a world dominated by distractions. Hersh describes its meaning this way: “We are dazed by distractions and don't always value concentration when inspiration crosses our path and we keep driving. We were never Icarus, no illusion of grandeur, just innocent to what comes next. Yet we are enchanted by that glow, the flame that burns the wings. So what? We ask the…
Avenged Sevenfold have surprise-released a futuristic electronic-tinged new EP titled ‘Statica’ – listen below. The four-track collection arrived without warning earlier today (July 24), and it features the songs ‘Lights’, ‘Statica’, ‘Rejoice’ and ‘Ashes’. It is the California metal band’s most significant release since their eighth studio record ‘Life Is But A Dream…’ in 2023, and it sees them continuing to explore the adventurous direction of that album, as well as 2016’s ‘The Stage’. They make use of robotic vocals, sci-fi synths and electronic dance beats, moving further away from the more traditional heavy metal sound of records such as 2005’s ‘City Of Evil’ and 2013’s ‘Hail To The King’. The band did not tease the EP beforehand and it follows…
At Under the Big Sky festival in Whitefish, Montana, earlier this month, Zach Top debuted the new song “Good Girls & Cowgirls.” Set for an official release on Aug. 21, the rollicking track will arrive on 7-inch vinyl with another new song, “Other Side of Hurtin’.” In an exclusive backstage interview at Under the Big Sky, the Washington state country singer opened up about his rapid rise — he headlined UTBS this year — what’s in store for his next album, and why bluegrass will forever remain at the core of his songwriting and stage presence. Last year, you turned…
