O2 Arena London Apologizes For Confiscating Lorde Concertgoers’ Palestine Shirts Considering Lorde has quite literally yelled "free fucking Palestine" mid-song during her Ultrasound world tour, I don't think she has an issue when fans show up to her shows wearing Palestine shirts. And yet, at the singer's show at London's O2 Arena Sunday night, two attendees had shirts reading "Palestine" confiscated by venue security, who said they were in violation of venue policy.

Bob Dylan Fanpage Creator Says It Got Him Banned From Glasgow Show Last year Daniel Hildebrand started Daily Dylan, a series of social media accounts devoted to Bob Dylan fandom. The account has more than 55,000 followers on Instagram and 48,000 on Facebook; there's also a Daily Dylan presence on Twitter, Bluesky, and Substack, plus occasional podcasts. The account posts setlists and aggregates live video (with credit) from other non-professional accounts, and it does not appear to be monetized in any way. However, he says recirculating live photos and videos from Dylan's tour got him removed from a recent Dylan show.

New Pornographers Announce Tour, Give First Interview Since Ex-Drummer’s Arrest The New Pornographers were blindsided by an extremely unfortunate turn of events in April when Joe Seiders, who had been the power-pop group's drummer for the past decade, was arrested on charges including possession of child sexual abuse material. The band immediately severed ties with Seiders and has mostly stayed off the radar since then, save for some Substack posts from frontman A.C. Newman. Today, Newman has given his first interview since the Seiders debacle, and the New Pornographers have announced plans to get back on the road.

Kneecap – “No Comment” (Feat. Sub Focus) It’s been an extremely busy year for Kneecap, and it’s not over yet. When the Belfast dance-rap trio released their last single “Sayōnara” in September, group member Mo Chara was still facing wildly overstated terrorism charges in London. That case has since been thrown out, and now Kneecap have come back with a new Irish-language… The post Kneecap – “No Comment” (Feat. Sub Focus) appeared first on Stereogum.

American Head Charge Frontman Resurfaces To Discuss Addiction Struggle With Soft White Underbelly The YouTube channel _Soft White Underbelly_ features interviews with "people who are frequently invisible in society—the unhoused, the sex worker, the chronic drug user, the runaway, the gang member, the poor and the sick." A new episode on the channel posted three days ago features Cameron Heacock, former frontman of the Minneapolis nu-metal band American Head Charge. In the 45-minute interview, Heacock's first public appearance in seven years, he discusses his current life: unhoused, living on the streets of Los Angeles, addicted to fentanyl.

Album Of The Week: Sharp Pins Balloon Balloon Balloon Kai Slater is obsessed with the past. For those of us who share his interests, that's working out splendidly. Slater, a 21-year-old Chicago singer-songwriter, first gained renown as a member of Lifeguard, a trio whose noisy, melodic post-punk songs turn '70s and '80s classics into rocket fuel. He dresses like a mod dandy and publishes a handmade zine titled for NEU!'s krautrock classic "Hallogallo." It's not just that he devours the stylistic palette of the 20th century underground; he's also keeping the flame for its DIY ethos, gritty and grounded in community.

Waxahatchee & MJ Lenderman Announce Co-Headlining Tour Hey, here's something cool! Waxahatchee and MJ Lenderman are two musical entities who make perfect sense together. Lenderman was part of the studio band on Waxahatchee's excellent 2024 album _Tigers Blood_ , and the two of them sang the gorgeous duet "Right Back To It" together. Just a few weeks ago, we got the surprise self-titled album from Snocaps, Katie Crutchfield's new band with her sister Allison, which also includes Lenderman and Brad Cook. Snocaps have a few shows coming up. And next year, Waxahatchee and MJ Lenderman will head out on a proper tour together.

Billy Hart, Moving In All Directions At Once Billy Hart doesn't like the term jazz. Throughout his recently published autobiography, _Oceans Of Time_ , he uses the phrase "America's classical music." And, I mean, if anybody's earned the right to define their music on their own terms, it's Billy Hart. The post Billy Hart, Moving In All Directions At Once appeared first on Stereogum.

Sunflower Bean’s Julia Cumming Is In The New Running Man Movie Director Edgar Wright insists that his new film _The Running Man_ is not a remake of the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger joint. Instead, it's another, more faithful adaptation of the book that Stephen King published under his Richard Bachman alias in 1982. I saw it over the weekend, and it definitely has a very different vibe from the '80s action classic. In the sole nod to the previous _Running Man_ , we learn that in this new corporate-controlled dystopia, Schwarzenegger's face is on the $100 bill. And I completely missed that the person conveying that information is Julia Cumming, leader of the New York indie rock trio Sunflower Bean.

Skrillex, Dylan Brady & Caroline Polachek – “hit me where it hurts” On April Fool's Day, Skrillex surprise-released his album _Fuck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!!<3_, which recently earned him Grammy nominations for Best Dance/Electronic Album and Best Dance/Electronic Recording (for "Voltage"). He dropped a new single called "Fuze" with ISOxo last month, and today he's got another new one. Enticingly, the hyperactive and high-octane "hit me where it hurts" pairs our boy Sonny with longtime collaborator Dylan Brady (also of 100 Gecs fame) and none other than Caroline Polachek, whose vocals from _Pang_ track "Hit Me Where It Hurts" are threaded throughout.

"Nick Of Time," a new one-off Konradsen single today, is a collaboration with Chicago's Gia Margaret, who harmonizes with Sabel while also contributing piano and synth to the arrangement.

Drake Claims T.I.’s Friend Never Urinated On Him On T.I.'s 2020 song "We Did It Big," he honored his late friend Terrance Beasley, aka Cap, who'd died in prison a year earlier. One way T.I. chose to pay tribute on the song — an emotional ballad featuring John Legend — was to remember the time Cap urinated on Aubrey Graham: "While I'm fightin' my own somehow got you home/ So drunk in LA, end up pissin' on Drake, shit/ Fuck it, that's still my brother since back in the trap house."
