Noel Gallagher has shared why he won’t be watching the Chris Martin-curated World Cup haltime show. The Oasis legend appeared on TalkSport to discuss the upcoming World Cup final, to be held in East Rutherford, New Jersey on July 19. The final will consist of a halftime show curated by Coldplay‘s Chris Martin – who has enlisted massive stars Madonna, Shakira and BTS to play. When asked if Gallagher would join in with any of his own performances, he jokingly responded: “I’m doing the half-time raffle for a leg of lamb.” He continued to say he wasn’t a fan of the upcoming show, explaining:…
“Vespers”, the first EP of BAUSANarises from this relationship between experience and transformation. The five songs that make up the album outline a fragmented and coherent path, built on subsequent returns and variations. The writing moves between essential images and repetitions that open up the meaning, returning a narrative that proceeds through emotional stratifications rather than linear development, allowing an urgency to emerge that settles over the time of listening. Listen to “Vespers” On the sonic level, “Vespers” interweaves an alt-rock of singer-songwriter origin with more rarefied openings and controlled distortions. Highlighted bass, granular guitars and atmospheric synths define a…
Lately, the Backrooms have felt inescapable. The breakout horror movie now reigns as A24’s highest-grossing film to date, but the lore bears repeating: In 2019, a a drab office space with sickly yellow wallpaper, photographed from an askew angle, was shared anonymously on 4chan. A comment suggested this place lies on the fringe of reality and you could slip into it and get lost forever. The post quickly became a vaunted piece of creepypasta, influencing everything from Severance to Playboi Carti, and it has been adopted as everyday parlance to describe any eerie, liminal space. A 16-year-old Kane Parsons ran…

After establishing herself online thanks to an authentic account…

When Francisca Cuello picks up a chainsaw in the dual video for “Ultra Terrorific Fantasy” and “Not ur mom,” the color of the blood dripping from her grinning mouth matches her bikini, like she’s performing in a hentaification of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The Argentine artist has built her Six Sex persona by weaponizing a hypersexuality that she has both gleefully embodied and had thrust upon her. In the second song, a fuzzy disco-gabber dream grounded by a melody that channels Donna Summer’s “I Feel Love,” she lays out the ethos for ULTRA, her debut album: “Lo que a mi…
At a recent performance at the Whitney Biennial, Sammi Katzmann played a run on saxophone while Jenna Pascale bore down on her cello with such weight and precision it seemed as if the bow were forged from titanium. They had been darting close and drifting apart for a while, then suddenly happened upon a perfect harmony. It sounded like beauty and it sounded like terror. The two musicians looked at one another and began to cry. They had communicated telepathically and for a moment became one: KatzPascale.The duo formed two years ago, shortly after meeting while working as hired guns…
Ask me without warning if there is a guitarist in YHWH Nailgun, and I will absolutely pause to think, possibly before even incorrectly saying no. This is not intended as an insult against Saguiv Rosenstock, a fascinating instrumentalist whose 2022 enlistment in YHWH began transforming the band from the atavistic burst of feeling it was to the multivalent spell it has become. Rosenstock was also the source of drummer Sam Pickard’s rototoms, an inspired choice that became an easy press hook for their exhilarating debut last year, 45 Pounds.It’s just that, no matter how many times I have seen the…

As the New York Knicks face off with the San Antonio Spurs, the showdown has brought together fans and famous faces from across industries to witness the historic battle nearly three decades in the making. On Wednesday, for Game 4 at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Taylor Swift showed up alongside fellow singer-songwriters Alana and Este Haim. The trio donned blue and orange “Stevie Knicks”…
