He’s been especially aggressive towards wind power — so much so that the administration recently decided to pay nearly $800 million to cancel wind energy projects, which is the third time it’s shelled out taxpayer money to kill a clean energy initiative that had already been in the works. Trump has been noticeably less focused on solar energy, but he has still attacked the industry and made moves to hinder its growth, along with other sources of clean energy. Last August, the…
The rumors about the bursting of the live industry bubble were evidently exaggerated: Italians did not stop going to concerts because they were discouraged by ticket prices that were too high or by venues not equipped to host live music. Indeed, during 2025 they spent a record amount of one billion euros. Half was spent going to see concerts in the summer, more than a third for major events in stadiums, racetracks and racetracks.This can be deduced from the annual report on entertainment in Italy released by Siae which contains the numbers relating not only to concerts, but also to…
While Bicep were sipping the tracks of the “CHROMA” project, the pinnacle of their career so far, not only for the quality of the songs but even more so for the show staged live, they took some time to dedicate themselves to a completely different idea. Contacted as early as 2022 by a charity organization for a study expedition in the Arctic, Andy Ferguson (co-owner of the company name Bicep, together with Matthew McBriar) spent two weeks in Greenland, coming into contact with the problems of the place (in particular, the mutations caused by the melting of the ice) and…

I think there is little doubt that metal has definitely shed its skin and the very essence of the sound heavy has somehow transformed from the aggressive speed of its origins to depth. The Canadians BIG|BRAVE are among the groups to have made perhaps the most intriguing and personal journey together with their label mates The Body, gradually becoming more intimate and innovative and building their tracks on a deep scaffolding of sounds and manipulations. The new album marks an important turning point for the trio, given that the compositions are increasingly dense and oriented towards the guitar and above…
