Dubbed ‘The Ugly Tour’, new dates kick off at Norway’s Unity Arena in Oslo on March 2, before continuing in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands and…
‘Is This It’ must feel like a double-edged sword to The Strokes. Their lauded debut album earned them widespread acclaim and shot them to the top of festival bills and onto the covers of magazines around the world. It is also still the yardstick by which the rest of their discography has been judged by the general public, a barometer that holds little regard for evolution or growth. The Strokes haven’t been the band that made that first record a long time ago. That’s no bad thing – if they’d stayed in the same place creatively, we wouldn’t have ‘Ode…

Ten minutes on sessions Reality Awaitswhich came out today. It's called In Transit Part II and it is the mini-documentary shot by Johann Rashid, who also took care of the album's art, while the Strokes recorded the album in Costa Rica with Rick Rubin.”Are you the person we're looking for?” asks Julian Casablancas, kneeling in front of the guru-producer. The tone is mostly relaxed (given the place…), often joking, between studio sessions, swimming in the pool, fragments of dialogue about the songs, football games and Rubin explaining what goes and doesn't go in the music they are recording.“A few months…
Conor Oberst has opened up about being “really close to the edge” as he faces personal struggles, while saying it’s “almost impossible” to write music about the era of Donald Trump. During an interview on the New York Times‘ Popcast, the Bright Eyes frontman and soloist was asked about the “near-death experience” he’d spoken about in a conversation with the LA Times earlier this year.

Only five singles into her career, Tyla struck gold. ‘Water’, her 2023 single, became a global phenomenon, introducing amapiano to new audiences through its irresistible blend of R&B and South African club music. Her eponymous debut album followed the next year, and proved ‘Water’ wasn’t lightning in a bottle, cementing her place as one of pop’s brightest crossover stars. It’s not easy to keep that light shining, though. Although the build-up to the Johannesburg singer’s second album, ‘A*Pop’, suggested a technicolour pop spectacular on the way, it instead shows her shine is starting to dim. Beyond its strongest singles, the…
“I think the dancefloor is dead, so now let's make rock music” was the first phrase that, months ago, we could hear from Music, Fashion, FilmCharli XCX's new album released tonight. Sold as statementto then be recalibrated as a joke within the anti-marketing professed by the pop star, the phrase on which the first single from the album is built is actually the true key to understanding this work. Because Charli is right: the dancefloor is dead (and killing it was the enormous spotlight on clubbing in recent years which has polluted and dried up the environment) and she and…
REM – “Fall On Me” (from “Lifes Rich Pageant”, 1985) Often masterpieces are born in the darkest moments. When it seems like we have reached the brink of the abyss. It also happened to Rem at the halfway point of the 1980s. Stressed by the frustrating experience of “Fables Of The Reconstruction” and a nerve-wracking series of live performances, Michael Stipe and his companions had reached the limit and were in danger of truly exploding. The plastic image of the collapse is Peter Buck's Rickenbacker thrown towards one of the technicians at the Beacon Theater in New York, during the…
