Everything is better with friends! Right? The Funk Hunters certainly seem to live by that adage with their newest album, Music w/ Friends, featuring collaborations on every track.

Spiritbox are opening up the lid on one of their exclusive new merch designs. This time, it’s a real “Spiritbox,” and judging by their preview on Twitter, it’s a pretty trippy collector’s item. When turned on, this box emits an eerie glow and some haunting noises to really set the mood for a night of playing records

This weekend at HARD Summer brought about its usual share of surprises and stellar performances with impressive bookings and pairings. In particular, if you happened to catch Deathpact’s set on Sunday night, and stayed until the end, you saw something really interesting: a second Deathpact. Deathpact first popped up on the radar in 2018 and

Spotify is an audio playground of all sorts, but it is now facing a wave of hardcore pornographic content that is a direct violation of the streaming platform’s own rules. Frequent users of the on-demand streaming service have probably come across goofy edits of sexualized or explicit album covers, such as the artwork for Impaled

Providing classic old-school grooves mixed with the earth-shaking thump of modern mastery, Obskür is known for releasing colossal tech-house tunes perfect for mid-party hype or festival antics. In addition to recently remixing Barbara Tucker’s “Beautiful People,” Obskür have performed massive live sets at infamous venues such as The Warehouse Project, Tokyo World, Detonate, UFO Belfast, and

Amazon is using what appears to be a promo picture of Steel Panther to promote their Prime video documentary Rock n’ Roll Icon: Motley Crue. What makes this particularly facepalming for Amazon, more so than mistakenly using any other 80’s rock band’s pic, is that Steel Panther is a famously-awesome hair-metal act inspired by the hair metal acts

O Cinnedi is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to production. Starting at the age of 10 where she began her journey into music theory and classical clarinet and percussion playing where you can see elements of this throughout her music. Followed by at the tender age of 16, she was educated by

Is Tom DeLonge back in blink-182? Kerrang! asked the important question this week after DeLonge, the estranged guitarist and co-vocalist of the influential pop-punk act and the leader of alt-rockers Angels & Airwaves, appeared to suggest that he was indeed back in blink, the group he co-founded in San Diego back in 1992. On Monday (Aug. 1), the magazine pointed to DeLonge’s current

Last year, ZHU released his latest album, DREAMLAND, and followed it up with a deluxe version that included two brand new songs – “Coral.PINK (feat Trombone Shorty)” and “Mannequins & Egos” – plus five previously released tracks that were not included on the original album. Since then, he’s been touring and playing shows, holding off on

Back in July of 1991, thrash titan Anthrax released a cover of one of Public Enemy’s signature songs, “Bring the Noise.” Now, 31 years later, the pair have unexpectedly teamed up again, as Public Enemy founder Chuck D joined Anthrax when they played the seminal tune at the Hollywood Palladium this past Friday night (July 29).

After announcing his debut album earlier this week, Seven Lions returns today with the first single from the project. “Every Time” featuring So Below is out today on Ophelia Records. Kicking off instantly with his signature and revered bass sounds, “Every Time” is an innovative, genre pushing masterwork – So Below offers up her haunting

Finally, there’s some signs of life from Jane’s Addiction — and it could include new music, too. The future plans of the pivotal ’90s rock act have been put into question in recent months. The band canceled a series of festival appearances, including Perry Farrell’s own Lollapalooza this weekend, reportedly due to Dave Navarro’s battle with long-haul COVID.

In 2020, Over Easy made waves on the dance music scene with breakthrough singles, “Don’t Know You” and “Rosé” with Ashley Mehta, both released on London-based Adept Records. They also released a massive remix for Ekali and Kiiara’s “Back to You,” that charted on the Apple Music dance charts in over 80 countries and was

Sepultura‘s 1996 album Roots is often associated with nu-metal, and just like many other artists have written off the label, the Brazilian band’s former frontman Max Cavalera doesn’t agree with it. He thinks the record was slapped with the categorization because of its success and popularity. Korn essentially spearheaded nu-metal when they released their eponymous debut album

We’re four singles in to Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2 from Calvin Harris and the album officially drops next Friday. But we’re getting one last single from the 14-track project first, “New To You” with Normani, Tinashe, and Offset. For those keeping track, that brings the collaborators from just the first four singles to: Dua Lipa,

It’s a debate that’s gone on forever – or at least for the last few decades: Did grunge ignite the downfall of 1980s hard rock and heavy metal? According to Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard, yes (to some degree). In a recent chat with VWMusic’s Andrew Daly, Gossard was asked to comment on the “long-running narrative”
