After releasing a very bloody teaser last week, Queens of the Stone Age have properly announced their next album. Perfecth arrives October 30 via Matador, and a new single from the record, “Insignificant Other,” is out now. Check it out below.Recorded between New Orleans and Los Angeles, Perfecth is a purposefully imperfect flip on the word “perfect,” coined by frontman Josh Homme. “Nothing in this world is perfect, but everything seems to be ‘perfecth’,” he said in a statement. “And that title is funny when you’re in a group, but it ain’t so funny when you’re alone.” The band will…

Yves Tumor has denied allegations of abuse against him. Reports of sexual assault began to emerge against the musician – real name Sean Lee Bowie – last week, after images of a bruised woman were posted to the Yves Tumor subreddit. The photos came alongside the text, which alleged that Bowie had “sexually assaulted someone close to me last week”. The anonymous poster went on to say: “She has told me he forcefully groped her multiple times, bit her neck, held her down and stepped on her head with his shoe, amongst other things. “I’ve known him for years, considered…

Hakushi Hasegawa had spent too much time alone. The 27-year-old Tokyo artist has spent nearly a decade exploding familiar sounds into alien forms, slamming frantic keyboard melodies against pulverising percussion and their own digitally warped vocals to create works that hide pop hooks beneath the musical maelstrom. That vision earned them praise from listeners in Japan and beyond, leading to Hasegawa becoming the first Japanese musician to sign with American electronic label Brainfeeder, where they released the album ‘Mahogakko’ in 2024. “But it was something I made entirely by myself, sitting in front of my computer the whole time,” Hasegawa…

The comeback album is fraught with pitfalls. Often, when a band takes a long break and finally returns with a new record, the result is overcooked and overthought, bearing all the signs of its protracted birth. This isn’t an allegation you could level at ‘I Must Be Dreaming’, Alabama Shakes’ first album in over a decade. As its name suggests, this is a laidback, dreamy collection of psychedelic-soul-influenced songs, though there are two sides to its subject matter. On the one hand, it’s a protest against America’s Trump-directed fall from grace, with the trio asking: can this actually be real?…

Arriving five years after their last record, ‘Hushed And Grim’, the new album will be out on Friday (August 28) and comes amid a tumultuous period for the band.

Later, drummer and co-vocalist Dailor…
