Raise a farewell toast for Shane MacGowan, one of rock’s most fiendishly brilliant growlers, snarlers, songwriters, story-tellers, and blackguards. Shane was the resident Celt-punk genius of The Pogues, one of the great Irish bards of his or any other era, which is why the world is mourning his death on Wednesday. But Shane’s demise has been predicted so many times, over 65 years of hard living, it’s bizarrely shocking that the end has finally come. Hell, in one of his best-loved songs, “The Sick Bed of Cuchulain,” he interrupts his own funeral, snarling, “They’ll take you to Cloughprior/They’ll shove you…

The choreographed dance moves to Tyla’s sexy single “Water” put the musician’s fusion of pop and amapiano on the map. In a new interview for Rolling Stone‘s The Breakdown, the South African star shares how she made the viral track — and what she looks for when making music. “I’m usually driven by the beat.

Majors was arrested in New York in March on misdemeanor charges of assault, attempted assault, and harassment for allegedly hitting and pushing his then-girlfriend into a car during a fight.

Non serve molta fantasia per l’ipotetico claim di lancio di “Destination Dystopia”, ma d’altronde la band teutonica non fa certo dell’inventiva la sua principale qualità, potendo viceversa contare sulla quasi trentennale militanze nella locale scena melodic death metal, traguardo che fa di loro la band più longeva del genere in madrepatria insieme ai Night In Gales.Dopo aver rimpiazzato chitarrista e batterista, usciti di scena dopo la pandemia, la formazione tedesca torna a cinque anni da “Eye Of The Storm” con…
