In honor of the upcoming 30th anniversary of Alice in Chains‘ Dirt, pop culture lifestyle brand Funko is releasing a deluxe Funko! Pop figure set of the band this fall. The brand recently conducted a Pop! Talk interview with Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney to commemorate the new collection, where the rockers revealed the moment they felt they

Over Labor Day Weekend in New York City, I got the incredible opportunity to sit down and speak with Atlanta-based gut music pioneer, Canvas. Canvas opened up CloZee’s Odyzey stage takeover on the final day of Electric Zoo. We spoke about a variety of topics from discussing what imposter syndrome is, her relationship with CloZee and much

Politics and popular music go hand in hand. For instance, you have the economic and racial hardships of early 20th century blues, the anti-war protests of ‘60s folk and the anti-colonialist outlook of ‘70s and ‘80s reggae. Plus, some genres – such as punk and hip-hop – are intrinsically political. Rock and metal are no

Everyone starts as a new artist at some point, and while it may seem like Shinedown have ruled active rock radio for an eternity now, they very much had lessons to learn early on. In a new interview with Ryan Castle for the Audacy Check In, Shinedown’s Brent Smith says that it was 3 Doors

Unless you’ve been living under a rock this past weekend, you’ve seen or heard “Cbat” by Hudson Mohawke popping up again after 11 years. HudMo is having his own sort of Kate Bush moment as his song “Cbat,” which has been more or less forgotten in the general musical zeitgeist, is seeing a huge viral

Greta Van Fleet have really made a name for themselves over the last few years, and are one of the more popular young rock bands on tour nowadays. During a new interview, bassist Sam Kiszka revealed that the band is “pretty far into” their third studio album, and that it’ll sound more similar to what

Back in August 2021, Spencer Elden – the man who, as a four-month-old baby, was photographed naked for the cover of Nirvana’s Nevermind LP – sued the band for possessing and distributing “commercial child pornography” that resulted in Elden “suffer[ing] lifelong damages.” Now, the grievance has been dismissed for a third and final time because

The bass guitar is on the Mount Rushmore of instruments for rock and metal bands, but that dosen’t mean a band always has a bassist in the group. There are some bands out there, even a couple legendary ones, that prove that you don’t have to have one of the four staple tools (guitar, bass, drum, keys)

At first listen, Carlo Ratto’s latest drop may seem like just another cookie-cutter techno pop song. But upon closer inspection, there’s more to this track than meets the ear. The soaring piano chords and catchy vocals are reminiscent of early 2000s pop songs, while the powerful violin drops give the track a modern twist. In

Ghost mastermind Tobias Forge has never been shy about his love for Metallica. (Even the group’s cover of “Enter Sandman” – from 2021’s The Metallica Blacklist tribute album – is affectionately imaginative.) During a recent chat with AL.com, Forge admitted that he admires the iconic thrash quartet not only creatively but also commercially, especially during

Since he started the eternally cool and somewhat clandestine label Sub-liminal Recordings back in 2015, the artist known as Agro likely hasn’t had a lot of time for his own releases. Sub-liminal has been a champion of all things underground, finding artists and curating releases that the larger and more popular side of the D&B

For the past three months, the two Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concerts have been heavily anticipated by fans, friends, family and the rock music world at large. Unsurprisingly, last night (Sept. 3)’s first concert – at London’s Wembley Stadium – was a monumental success, with its myriad artists providing plenty of touching memories and terrific music

The latest Sable Valley Summer compilation is officially out today, featuring 14 new tracks from some of bass music and trap’s hottest rising stars and known names. Where in the past two volumes, RL Grime has led the compilation with fresh collaborations with Whethan and Montell2099, respectively, this time Vol. 3 starts with “Silo” with Hex Cougar

It’s one big performance after another at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert going on at London’s Wembley Stadium. The audience just got an electrifying dose of rock with AC/DC‘s Brian Johnson joining the Foo Fighters with special guest drummer Lars Ulrich sitting in behind the kit. The two song set started with the Foos members

Late last night, I was laying in bed doom scrolling on Twitter and came across this post. Intrigued, I read through it. tl;dr a boyfriend has had a love making playlist with his girlfriend for 2 years to help with his “natural rhythm” and she just let him know that she hates one of the

The moment had to come and when it did it was met with a powerful emotional weight. The Foo Fighters, having backed a wealth of performers at the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert, would eventually have to perform one of their own songs for the first time since Hawkins’ death earlier this year, and the chosen

Earlier this summer, Seven Lions surprised fans by wiping his socials and later revealing he will be releasing his first ever artist album Beyond The Veil this fall. The full-length LP is set for release on Seven Lions’ own Ophelia Records imprint on October 21. “Call On Me” is dance music leader Seven Lions’ second

Nickelback have been teasing a new song lately called “San Quentin,” and based on the teasers, it’s quite heavier than what many might expect from them. However, guitarist Ryan Peake doesn’t seem to think that style of music is “unusual” for them, given the fact that they’ve played with various sounds over the years. After sharing
