One does not simply listen to Tool. One plunges entirely into an immersive sonic experience that takes the listener through a thought-provoking spiral of complex musicianship and perplexing lyrical content.

&friends has continually proven himself to be the master at tribal and afro house, with an incredible gift at crafting the finest grooves you’ll ever hear. Now, he’s back with a robust EP ‘Ominira’ in collaboration with fellow producer Samuel Cosmic, signed to his Hidden Hands imprint. ‘Ominira’ is a 2-track delivery, with “Halele” and

Most musicians can pinpoint the moment they realized they wanted to pursue music as a career. For Avenged Sevenfold‘s Synyster Gates, there were two instances — one song and one music video — that sealed the deal for him.

Morrissey has criticized what he called “insultingly stupid” tributes to Sinéad O’Connor in the media upon the Irish singer’s death at 56 this week.

But the former The Smiths lead

The artist known to the drum & bass world as Moleman has always done things his own way. Releasing mostly on the grassroots label Fat Tape records since he began with this moniker in 2011, Moleman has lived up to his name as he’s generally shirked the limelight and big labels, preferring to do his

A hearing was held today (July 26) on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), also known as UFOs, where a former military intelligence officer confirmed that the U.S. has possession of “nonhuman biologics” that were recovered from an alleged aircraft crash.

The political punk band Anti-Flag and their founding singer-guitarist, Justin Sane, have both made statements after claims of sexual assault were apparently made against the bandleader. Justin Sane has denied the allegations. Last week, Anti-Flag suddenly deleted all of their social media accounts as well as their official band website, announcing on their Patreon page that they had broken up after releasing

The term “ambient” gets batted around quite a bit in electronic music, whether it’s to describe background sound design, a certain style of synth or melody or even the mood of a piece. There is, however, still a pretty strong self-defining ambient genre within electronica, though artists’ adherence to that format seems to be in

Motley Crue have had a really successful run touring with Def Leppard since it kicked off in the summer of 2022, but Nikki Sixx says there’s another band he thinks Motley Crue would “destroy the world” with if they were to tour together.
