Have
Queen’s Gambit was without a doubt one of the biggest, if not the biggest, new shows in 2020. Never before has chess been so engrossing or enthralling to a wide audience, but it was due in large part to star Anya Taylor-Joy’s magnificent performance. EDM fans, though, might have found the star strangely familiar. In
Foo Fighters have another fresh song en route tonight, but the teaser for the track definitely gives us the feel of another Loudwire favorite act, Rammstein.

A petition is making its rounds, asking for the immediate release of Palestinian DJ Sama Abdulhadi, who was recently arrested at an Islamic holy compound in Jericho for playing techno.

YØUNGBLØØD has caught our ear on more than one occasion with his heavy, at times unrelenting, bass/trap productions — and we can expect plenty more coming 2021 from this next up producer. From the creative mind that brought us “Playboy” and “Throw It Down” with BLOSSO, YØUNGBLØØD continues his hot streak with new singles “ROLLIN’”
Earlier this year we brought you Sparrow Sleeps transforming Coheed and Cambria‘s “Welcome Home” into a sleep-time treat with a lullaby version performed on the celeste.

We’ve seen quite a divide in beliefs throughout the year over the COVID-19 virus, and the newly-approved vaccine has only furthered that divide. Among those who say they will not be getting the vaccine is, unsurprisingly, outspoken rocker Ted Nugent. In a video he posted on Facebook on Dec. 25, he shared how he felt

Today, we get our first preview of the
