Queen + Adam Lambert haven’t performed since their Rhapsody world tour wrapped up at Japan’s Tokyo Dome on February 14, 2024. And in a new interview with The Times, guitarist Brian May revealed the band won’t ever return to the road. “I made a decision 18 months ago that I didn’t want to tour again,” May said. “A close family friend died when we were in the States, so I said to my tour manager, ‘I’ll just nip home for a few days and come back.’ She looked me in the eyes and said, ‘You know you can’t do that.’…

As he announces a new book and gears up to play a huge London anniversary show, Erol Alkan has spoken to NME about his memories of legendary clubnights Bugged Out and Trash, and how the rush of the ‘00s electroclash scene is still having an impact today. DJ and producer Alkan has just emerged from two years dedicated to writing Trash: A Club, A Sound, A Home – an oral history of the scene-setting clubnight compiled of 70 hours of interviews with 39 figures from those who got on behind the decks and on stage there back in the ‘00s,…
Miranda Lambert has won just about every country-music award in existence, but her barometer for success is rather simple: Do drag queens want to perform your songs onstage? “If someone dresses like you and covers you in a drag show, to me, you made it,” Lambert says, settling into a couch in the Rolling Stone offices in denim, a brown suede jacket, and, lest you forget where she’s from, a Texas-shaped turquoise ring big enough to double as a weapon. Lambert loves a drag performance so much that when she first teased her new album, Crisco, this past summer, she…
Dolly Parton and Billie Eilish are among the 80 artists who will discuss some of their favorite, if overlooked, albums for a new book, On the Records, out Nov. 17. The book features essays by, or conversations with, musicians about the albums that had a huge influence on them, but may otherwise be underrated or unknown. Parton’s contribution, for instance, focuses on Mama Sings, a posthumous collection of traditional songs recorded by her own mother, Avie Lee Parton, in the Seventies, but released in 2024. As for Eilish, she wrote about Shake Shook Shaken, the 2014 album by the French-Finnish…

A few years ago, Democrats in Washington were circulating a chart showing that the economy always does better when they’re in charge and worse when Republicans hold the White House. This is statistically true — at least in the past few decades — but mostly irrelevant. And that’s because economic cycles and presidencies are sort of like shifting tectonic plates: They overlap, but they almost never perfectly align. Presidents don’t actually create the economies that attach to their names. They only react to them, ably or not. There are a couple of reasons for this. The first is that economic…
