His Sh*t’s F***ed Up: The Complicated Legacy of Warren Zevon The late singer-songwriter has been gone for 15 years, but his life and career still aren’t any easier to make sense of: He was as gifted, haunted, and destructive as any musician from his generation.

Hey, today is my birthday. It's also the day that Warren Zevon died. Every year on this day, I like to share this column.

Can Amtrak's busy Northeast Corridor handle 2026 World Cup? The congested stretch from Boston to Washington, D.C., already is beleaguered by breakdowns and spotty service.

Whether you like it or not, Amtrak is a key part of the USA’s transportation backbone. Even if we weren’t hosting major international events, we should be funding it properly.

Craig Finn And The War On Drugs Are A Super Team On ’Always Been’ ’Always Been,’ Craig Finn’s new Adam Granduciel-produced album, is out soon.

"Craig Finn songs plus music that sounds like The War On Drugs" is a winning equation in my book, so naturally I'm a fan of the upcoming album ALWAYS BEEN. Talked to Craig and producer Adam Granduciel about it and wrote this column.

I’m proud to be the Story Producer of a great new doc airing next month on HBO. It’s called YACHT ROCK: A DOCKUMENTARY, & it’s about the generation of musicians who flourished in L.A. from the mid-70s to the early 80s. It debuts at @DOCNYCfest 11/13-14, then HBO starting 11/29.

Hey, I wrote about my favorite albums of 2023! This is officially a Top 25 list, but I actually wrote about 51 albums. There are no ties, however. I promise it will make sense when you read it! uproxx.com/indie/steven...
