Though he’s known for his laconic aura, B-Real is visibly excited. It’s a July afternoon in the dog days of summer, and despite the humid weather, the Cypress Hill member is riding high. However, the veteran lyricist’s lifted vibes can’t be attributed only to cannabis fumes. Last week, the 56-year-old and his groupmates released their eleventh studio album, Dios Bendiga, a body of work that doubles as a creative achievement and homage to their cultural roots. It marks Cypress Hill‘s first full-length Spanish-language album since their 1999 compilation Los Grandes Exitos En Español, which saw B-Real, Sen Dog, DJ Muggs,…

“Probably as a back-up or uncredited feature like in ‘Garden Song’ with her tour manager,” they wrote at the time, when guessing how Winter could be involved. “It is bound to happen!” Meanwhile, Geese are set to appear at Reading & Leeds 2026 later this month, before headlining this year’s End Of The Road in September. They’ll also perform at Electric Picnic in Ireland. Winter and co. are scheduled to play two gigs at Glasgow’s legendary Barrowland Ballroom, too, as well as a pair of dates at London’s Troxy.

Jacques Greene is putting out his third solo album, JG, on October 16. Ahead of the fall release, the Montreal producer’s LuckyMe imprint has also dropped the lead single, “Presence.” Scroll down to listen to the bass-heavy two-step track.The album’s feature selections—including DJ Boring, umru, and SAM-E—were all inspired by the organic relationships in Greene’s network. “This record moves away from concepts and follows an intuition for places where I wanted to be and where I would be wanted,” they said in a press statement. “The track with Noah [SEES0000] is here because I love it, but also because we…

Weezer have shared the latest single from The Gold Album. In the video for “C.E.O.”, a pair of record executives played by Rob Riggle and Rob Huebel hound Rivers Cuomo into reenacting the iconic clip for “Undone (The Sweater Song)” from 1994’s Blue Album. “People are hungry for nostalgia,” Huebel insists, brandishing a “CEO” mug. “They want to see the old with a new twist.”The video then cuts to the band halfheartedly performing “C.E.O.” on a soundstage—it’s gold this time—with Obsession’s Curry Barker in the director’s chair. (Brendan Walter and Jasper Graham helmed the actual clip.) “Crankin’ out another ’90s…

Anthony Bourdain summed up his late teens in a typically eloquent, withering fashion: “I was,” he wrote in his bestselling memoir Kitchen Confidential, “a spoiled, miserable, narcissistic, self-destructive and thoughtless young lout, badly in need of a good ass-kicking.” That self-deprecating description opens Tony, writer-director Matt Johnson’s movie about the one crazy summer that changed a thoughtless young lout’s life; for good measure, the quote does double duty as the tagline on the film’s poster. This parable then spends 99.9 percent of its running time making a rock solid case for those last seven words. You may not recognize Bourdain,…

Last September, the dismembered, decomposed remains of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez were found in the front trunk of a Tesla sitting in a Los Angeles impound lot. The car was registered to David Anthony Burke, better known as D4vd, a rising singer-songwriter who’d become a Gen Z favorite with his brooding, moody bedroom pop. While links between Burke and Rivas Hernandez quickly began to emerge online, it wasn’t until April that Burke was arrested and formally charged with murdering Rivas Hernandez to cover up his sexual abuse of the girl.  Not long after he was taken into custody, Rolling Stone…

The singer previews the record, out in October, with the new single “Enough” Dawn Richard will go back to the beginning on her forthcoming studio album, Creole Culture. Out Oct. 9, the record draws extensively from the artist’s New Orleans roots without relying too heavily on historical nostalgia. “Creole Culture is my way of saying that New Orleans culture doesn’t have to live in the past to be authentic,” Richard shared in a statement. “It can be progressive. It can be global. It can be pop culture. It can look like me.” The record follows her albums New Breed (2019)…

Music publications BrooklynVegan, Alternative Press, Revolver, and Goldmine have been gutted by parent company Veeps, according to various sources. Nearly all staff at each publication appear to have been laid off yesterday. Veeps, which is now part of Live Nation, seems to have owned the publications since 2024 or 2025. Pitchfork has emailed Veeps and Live Nation representatives for comment. Emails to BrooklynVegan staffers, with the exception of founder Dave Levine, bounced back.Veeps was founded by Good Charlotte’s Benji and Joel Madden and has operated for many years as a ticketed livestream platform. Publicist Jacob Daneman mourned BrooklynVegan on X…

Richard has also shared “Enough,” a second taste of the LP following “Baby, Can We?”, her June single with Durand Bernarr. Listen below.In press materials, Richard described “Enough” as being about “unlearning the lie that your value has to be earned.” She added, “Sometimes the greatest act of resistance is believing you were always worthy.”According to Richard, Creole Culture completes a trilogy that began with her 2019 album New Breed and continued…

I’m guessing you’re a fan of the film Stargate.Yeah.Did you also watch the show?Yes, I did. The most interesting thing about this whole thing is that these stargates actually exist, and in ancient ruins, they’re still actually there. We haven’t figured out how to really use them, and we have to assume that there were many more that were built, thousands of years ago.Is it your dream to figure out how to use a stargate?I think the subject is not as farfetched and fictional as we know it. I think we’re closer to having such things than we are far…
