Lorde Shares New Music Video for ‘Solar Power’ Track “The Path”
Lorde has released a new music video for the Solar Power track “The Path.” The visual sees the singer perform while exploring an idyllic coastal landscape. As she walks through the environment, she’s joined by backup dancers who grow in rank as the video progresses. The video is co-directed by Joel Kefali and Lorde herself, who is credited under her real name, Ella Yelich-O’Connor. “On the occasion of the solstice, I wanted to share a sixth video with you, for “THE PATH,”” the singer wrote in her newsletter. “This video is the first chapter in the mystical Solar Power story, a prequel to the title video.” Solar Power landed in August last year as Lorde’s third studio album and the long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s Melodrama. She previously released videos for the album’s titular song, as we...
Elvis: Baz Luhrmann’s Gloriously Dizzying Film Takes Care of Presley’s Business
Baz Luhrmann’s unparalleled, and some would say over-the-top production style works very well to present the arc of Elvis Presley‘s career. The story is told through the eyes of Presley’s mercurial manager, Col. Tom Parker, astutely played by Tom Hanks. The Oscar-winning actor draws us in with his conspiratorial voiceovers, and then we see Presley’s puppet-like reaction. The funhouse mirror scene when Parker woos Elvis, whether apocryphal, is a perfect metaphor for the career Parker shapes for Presley. Parker leveraged his astute judgment of human nature to pluck Presley from obscurity as a truck driver and move him quickly from a traveling circus-like roadshow to the pinnacle of mainstream popularity. Parker’s voiceovers consistently speak about his skill at conjuring up more snow ...
Stone Gossard, Ani DiFranco Team for Single Benefiting Abortion Rights
Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard and beloved indie singer/songwriter Ani DiFranco have teamed for the first time on the single “Disorders,” all proceeds from which will be donated to the National Network of Abortion Funds, which aims to remove financial and logistical barriers to abortion access. [embedded content][embedded content] “What keeps me coming back to playing my guitar is the magic of how musical bits and pieces can transform into a complete song with a life of its own,” Gossard says of “Disorders,” which was crafted in tandem with Pearl Jam producer Josh Evans and the musicians Skerik and Stanton Moore. “The major ingredients are usually an inspired collaboration and some ephemeral fairy dust. What was recorded six years ago as a demo in New Orleans sat for a while until Skeri...
Sony Reportedly Set to Introduce a PS5 “Pro” Controller
Sony is reportedly working on a new “Pro” PlayStation 5 controller. According to reports, the controller — codenamed “Hunt” — has keeps the classic PlayStation 5 outlook but has significant attributes added, such as removable analog sticks that will allow players to possibly customize or replace them if they get stuck, trigger stops in the back which helps reduce trigger latency and rear buttons.

‘Super Mario Odyssey’ Mod Adds Multiplayer Support for up to Ten Players
A modder has allowed players to play online with up to ten players in the single-player game Super Mario Odyssey.

Coheed and Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez on Channeling The Weeknd, Getting His ‘Broadway On’
At one point during my Zoom call with Coheed and Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez, I fumble my words so heavily that our conversation grinds to a halt. Not because of awkwardness. The Coheed and Cambria mastermind remains one of the world’s most reliably affable rock stars: smiling widely, entertaining my nerdy questions about his synth-stacked home studio, punctuating every other sentence with a stoner-friendly laugh. The real reason I’m flummoxed: Even after listening to this band’s music for two decades, I have literally no idea what sub-genre shorthand to use during a question. (“Prog-metal-emo-power-pop” doesn’t exactly leap off the tongue.) Even crazier, the band’s upcoming 10th LP, Vaxis — Act II: A Window of the Waking Mind, expands beyond even that broad description, flirting more o...

Kate Bush Talks ‘Extraordinary’ Stranger Things Sync in Rare Interview
Kate Bush gave her first interview today (June 22) on BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour about the improbable resurgence of her 1985 song “Running Up That Hill” following its prominent usage in the current fourth season of Netflix’s Stranger Things, calling it “just extraordinary. I thought that the track would get some attention, but I just never imagined that it’d be anything like this. It’s so exciting that it’s quite shocking really, isn’t it? The whole world has gone mad.” The song has rocketed to the top of the charts around the world and reached No. 4 on The Billboard Hot 100, Bush’s first-ever top 5 appearance on that tally. “The thought of all these really young people hearing the song for the first time and discovering it, well, I think it’s very special,” Bush, 63, told presenter Emma B...

Kid Bloom Digs Deeper on Debut LP, Highway
It’s a big year for Lennon Kloser, who performs under the moniker Kid Bloom. He’s been making gently psychedelic indie-pop since 2016, but it wasn’t until June 3 that he released his debut album, Highway. Making an LP after years of releasing singles and EPs was new territory for Kloser. Not only was he re-introducing his music to the world, but he was also showing a different side of himself — one that is introspective and vulnerable. He started writing music for the album right before the pandemic hit in 2020. But when faced with the newfound isolation during the lockdown period, the configuration of the LP transformed. “The album sounded completely different from pre-pandemic to after because, during it, I just started letting all this shit fly out of me,” he explains to SPIN over ...
