After sharing “Colors,” his first new song since 2023, back in May, the Tallest Man on Earth has revealed details of his new album. Just Beyond Endless Mountain was inspired by the traditional folk music of Sweden’s Dalarna region, where Kristian Mattson grew up. It’s out October 9 via Anti-. Below, watch a bucolic video for the new single “Deliver Me From Trying,” shot in the Swedish countryside.“Somewhere along the way I’d developed this immature aversion to the whole cultural inheritance I grew up with,” Matsson said in press materials. “But now I live here again. I’ve read an incredible…

By the time the Ramones traveled to Los Angeles in August 1976 to play their very first West Coast concerts, they’d already established themselves as the vanguard act of the thriving New York City punk scene, signed a deal with Sire Records, released their groundbreaking debut album, gigged up and down the East Coast, and even played a couple of landmark gigs in London a month earlier that had a seismic impact on the burgeoning underground rock scene that had recently birthed the Clash, the Sex Pistols, the Damned, and many others.  But punk hadn’t quite made its way out…

It might not seem like a glitzy Grammy afterparty — one where Jess Williamson drank champagne with Taylor Swift, no less — and a gem and mineral show in small-town Texas have much in common. But for Williamson, they both somehow ended up representing the same thing: a feeling of being welcomed yet transient, with a foot in multiple worlds but never quite settling in. “I thought, ‘I’m a tourist,’” Williamson says, calling on Zoom from her living room in Marfa with her hair in loose braids, the desert sun pouring into the airy home. “That I’m this visitor stopping…

E ven when he was alive, there was a sense of lore that surrounded Anthony Bourdain. He had the allure of someone with a true mythology, which he offered up throughout his writing and TV shows. His memoir Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly, released in 2000, established much of what we know about him — his early years in New York City kitchens, his drug use, his willingness to reveal tricks of the trade. The book famously recounted the three summers he spent in Provincetown, Massachusetts, as a young man, one of his earliest legends. That time period…

Can you hear what the Rock is singing? Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson dreamed of becoming a country star when he was a teenager, but his professional music career technically dates back to “It Doesn’t Matter,” the 2000 Wyclef Jean track where he provided some shouted catchphrases. Johnson broke out his sturdy singing voice and guitar strumming on talk shows here and there over the years, but his real musical breakthrough was 2016’s Moana, where, in character as the demigod Maui, he sang the Lin-Manuel Miranda-penned “You’re Welcome” — which scored 1.8 billion streams on YouTube alone.  But Johnson is most…

The Reytons are currently fighting off FLO to nab this week’s UK Number One album. Rotherham band The Reytons are battling London girl group FLO to score their second Number 1 album with ‘A Love Letter To A Broken Town’. They previously scored their first chart-topper with their second album, ‘What’s Rock And Roll?’ FLO, meanwhile, are tailing the band at Number Two thanks to their second album, ‘Therapy At The Club’.
