The Late Show took its final bow on CBS last night, bringing Stephen Colbert's 11 years as host to an emotional end. Many of Colbert's contemporaries, former guests, staff, and admirers paid tribute to the beloved host as the show concluded. “America needs to give a standing ovation for this man tonight,” White wrote on Instagram. “God Bless Stephen, it is absolutely ridiculous that we live in a country where a President's ego can vindictively censor network television…..and nobody stops him. Carry on down your new paths with your head held high sir. You've told the truth and given us…

An hour into Andrei Tarkovsky’s 1979 film Stalker, the titular “stalker”—a man paid to guide seekers through a lush yet hazardous biome called the Zone— begins to muse on a topic familiar to anyone who has wrestled with aesthetic philosophy in college seminars or between bong rips. Music, he says, is “merely empty sound without associations”—so how does it “miraculously penetrate your very soul”? Monroe Beardsley, Peter Kivy, or your stoner friend can take that one. The existential enormity of the Stalker’s next question overshadows his first: “Why is this all necessary? And above all, for whom?”For whom? It’s a…
Thomas Dollbaum is a songwriter who values atmosphere above all else. His voice is loamy and deep, the dissipating smoke in a room right after you’ve blown out a candle, and it will be familiar to anyone who’s spent time with the road-trip elegies of Damien Jurado or the art-folk incantations of Richard Buckner. On his second album, Birds of Paradise, the Florida-born, Louisiana-based songwriter is accompanied by MJ Lenderman on drums, occasional guitar, and backing vocals, which helps Dollbaum’s rootsy, heartland rock feel part of a larger conversation in modern indie music, and his lyrics about “rambling through the…
Take an Italian postcard image, sift it through TikTok and Instagram and package it for clubs around the world. The transnational success of Mind Enterprises, a duo composed of Andrea Tirone (nicknamed Secco) and Roberto Conigliaro (Baffone), moves on this ridge and has the ability to transform the cliché of Italianness into a pop brand. An operation which, at first glance, seems like a banal trick to chase the algorithms, but which is turning out to be a real anthropological case study.Andrea and Roberto are two survivors of the Italian indie who in London have erased the past to rebuild…
Paul McCartney was Stephen Colbert's final guest on The Late Show Thursday night. The rock giant joined the comic legend for a conversation that spanned the Beatles' first time in America to the origins of McCartney's forthcoming album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane. After a Chicago hot dog mishap led to Colbert's original guest, “the Pope,” jilting the late-night host, McCartney, who just happened to be “doing some errands” in Midtown Manhattan, volunteered in his place. After recalling his first time at the Ed Sullivan Theater — a historic debut for the Beatles in America — McCartney discussed the band's…
THE GLUE they come back with “WE WILL ALL END UP HURTING US!”, the new album available from Friday 10 April 2026 on all digital platforms for Soviet Studio records: fifth album by the band from Vicenza, it is a work that collects and relaunches all the expressive urgency of the GLUEpushing it towards an even more direct, compact and radical form.

The late-night host joined the supergroup, which also included current bandleader Louis Cato Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, and Stephen Colbert‘s former bandleader Jon Batiste, along with current bandleader Louis Cato were among the musicians to bid a warm goodbye to Colbert during his final night hosting The Late Show at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York on Thursday. The performance also closed out the show, which was a star-studded, sentimental, and humorous send-off. The first song that was broadcast was Costello’s “Jump Up (Honky Tonk demo)” — which appeared to be a prerecorded segment — an intimate acoustic number that featured…
In a recent column for the New Yorker, writer Kyle Chayka details a “lo-fi rebellion” against the aesthetics of tech-driven uniformity: “Anything that appears too smooth these days is suspicious,” he says, citing a recent Weezer tour poster featuring the “Cool S,” the universal sigil of our shared humanity, as a counter-example. Chayka’s subjects primarily operate in the visual worlds of marketing and design, but it’s easy to identify sonic parallels. The kids are selling their turntables and buying guitars, saving rock’n’roll, and banging their heads until they incur nerve damage. In the face of A.I. homogeneity, the human —embodied,…
