Alabama Shakes have shared a new track, “American Dream”, which you can hear below. “It’s a snapshot of what we’re living through in 2026,” says Brittany Howard. “I look around and wonder how we got to a place where there’s so much strain and so little support. I mean, it shouldn’t be impossible to take off work so you can bring your child to the doctor — that’s actually insane. My hope is that one day people will hear this song and say, ‘Yeah, shit was crazy back then, but we made it through.’” “American Dream” follows “Another Life“, which…
“Woman’s career is not taken seriously,” Yoko Ono told writer Joy Press in the mid-’90s, “so no-one’s keeping an archive for you.” The subsequent reappraisals of Ono’s body of work over the decades have been informed by many things – Beatles adjacency, feminist critique, art historical reimaginings, experimental film explorations – but shadowing it all has been a sense that we’re never quite getting the full picture of all Ono has achieved over her seven-decade career in art, music, film and writing. That Season Of Glass is often read as her best album tells us much about how context informs…

Canadian pop standout Preston Pablo returns with “Selfish,” a sleek, bass driven single that signals a confident new chapter. Released via EMI Records, 31 East and Universal Canada. The track pairs his smooth vocals with a stripped back, intentional production where every detail hits with precision.At its core, “Selfish” is all about confidence and desire. It captures that ‘main character energy’ mindset, where instinct takes over and focus locks in on what you want. The result is a moody, self assured record that feels effortless but is carefully crafted beneath the surface.The song is produced by Keith “Ten4” Sorrells, known…
When I connect withVampiro over Zoom, we’re already on brand before the interview even begins. His camera won’t work. Settings are broken, logo showing, no face. The man who spent decades wrapping himself in darkness, ritual and theatricality is now literally a disembodied voice. Somehow, it fits. We’re speaking ahead of what’s being billed as his final matchatJCW StrangleMania– a farewell wrapped in Juggalo chaos, underground mythology and punk spirit. It’s happening in Las Vegas, at a casino, with a crowd that has followed him through generations, evolutions and reinventions. Physically, he’s hurting. Mentally, he’s buzzing. “My body is kind…

He’s the guitarist, arranger, songwriter and quietly crucial…
