The world has caught Kylie fever all over again. The new Netflix documentary Kylie is more than just a celebrity portrait — it’s a tribute to the bizarrely unkillable allure of Kylie Minogue. Stars come and go, but somehow Kylie has kept shimmying on forever. That isn’t how it’s supposed to go for dance-floor princesses—especially the ones who blew up in the Eighties, just one of the decade’s countless disposable big-hair disco dollies. It makes no sense that this Australian soap star got so famous in the first place, or that she became a hipster fave, but for her to…
Bob Dylan kicked off his 2026 summer tour Thursday night in Troutdale, Oregon, and he stunned his most hardcore followers fans near the end of the night, and surely left the rest of the crowd baffled, when he broke out the Basement Tapes extreme deep cut “Baby, Won't You Be My Baby” for the first time since recording the original with the Band in the basement of Big Pink back in 1967. “Baby, Won't You Be My Baby” wasn't included on the official release of The Basement Tapes in 1975, and was only known to bootleg collectors until 2014, when…
Alexis Goldstein has a simple pitch to American voters. Let her take out the data centers. There's more to it, of course. Goldstein has a long background in the finance and tech worlds, and a host of ideas on where public money that's being used for tax breaks to Big tech should be spent. But the core of her campaign for Maryland's 6th congressional district revolves around the clear image of a humming, reeking building soaking up cash in a needy community, hoarding its wealth in bytes of zeroes and ones. The district is currently represented by April McClain Delaney,…
Florida Senator Rick Scott is urging the Tampa Sports Authority to cancel Kanye West's upcoming headlining concerts at Raymond James Stadium. In a letter to the venue operator, published in full on his official website, Scott argued it would be a “slap in the face” to allow the musician's performances to be funded by taxpayers given West's history of “constant anti-Semitic attacks.” “It is troubling that a stadium supported by taxpayer dollars would openly subsidize an event led by an artist known for pushing this dangerous, hateful rhetoric, especially with Florida having one of the largest Jewish populations in our…
The band turns 40 this year and will be in concert in Milan in July Daniel D`Amico for SANREMO.FM
«This story, the radio play, the songs, the Ballad Opera that we present here, everything is born from a death. From a harvested seed that must go beyond that death to generate. It is a story of friendship, a male friendship, a somewhat old-fashioned genre, recently brought with poetic effectiveness to the screen by Francesco Sossai in The cities of the plain. We invited Pierpaolo Capovilla to take a seat in that pool precisely to celebrate the value of this type of friendship and with it a series of disused things: rock'n'roll, the epic of failure, love for bad masters,…
Hours after performing a stunning show at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Phoebe Bridgers has revealed an official 2026 tour.

Barcelona’s Primavera Sound festival was forced to evacuate some of its stages Thursday — including canceling headlining sets by Doja Cat and Massive Attack — due to severe weather. Sets by Alex G, Mac DeMarco, and Bad Gyal were also canceled after heavy rain and wind gusts made performances at some of the festival’s stages “impossible”; however, the weather did not impact a handful of stages, which resumed sets after the initial severe weather dissipated. “Late yesterday evening, at around 9:00 pm and with a yellow weather warning from Meteocat and AEMET, the weather conditions forced the cancellation of part…
Modest Mouse frontman Isaac Brock has spoken to NME about the Portland indie heroes' new album 'An Eraser and a Maze', as well as the tragic death of founding drummer Jeremiah Green. The album is the group's first since 2021's 'The Golden Casket' and a radical departure from that record's psychedelic pop sound. Instead, it leans heavily into the abrasive guitar style that will be familiar to long-time fans, though there are plenty of new directions too. 'Absolutely Necessary Never', for example, sounds like it could have been on the synth-laden Drive soundtrack. More than 30 years since the band's…
