My Chemical Romance Release New Song “The Foundations of Decay”: Stream
Welcome (back) to the black parade! My Chemical Romance have unveiled “The Foundations of Decay,” which marks their first new recording in eight years. Listen to the song below. The song is the band’s first recorded output since reuniting in 2019 for what was initially thought a one-off show in Los Angeles and new merch line. A full-blown reunion tour grew out of the massive outpouring of support from fans over the band getting back together, though its planned 2020 kickoff has been pushed back not once but twice due to the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. Expected to begin next week in the UK, the tour has now expanded to include 64 dates and festival stops at When We Were Young, Aftershock, Firefly, and Riot Fest. Openers for the global trek will feature a wide array of acts like Badfl...
Surprise Norm Macdonald Stand-Up Special, Filmed Prior to His Death, Coming to Netflix
Norm Macdonald was working on new stand-up material for a Netflix special before his death, but he never got to try out the routine in front of a live audience. Fortunately for fans, the comedian committed his jokes to tape in a home-recorded video that the streaming platform will soon unearth for the first time. Macdonald was diagnosed with cancer in 2012, but kept his illness private from the public. According to Lori Jo Hoekstra, the comedian’s longtime friend and producing partner, he recorded his final special before heading into the hospital in 2020 as a precautionary measure. “His test results were not good, so during the heart of COVID-19 pandemic and literally the night before going in for a procedure, he wanted to get this on tape just in case — as he put it — things went south,”...
Apple TV+’s The Essex Serpent Is Sumptuous, Supernatural Gothic Romance: Review
The Pitch: 1890s England: a time where the rapid rise of scientific knowledge — medicine, technology, archaeology — clashed with Christian superstitions and fairy tales. In the middle is Cora Seaborne (Claire Danes), a woman recently widowed from a wealthy, abusive spouse, who sees the opportunity to find out who she is and what she really wants out of life. A fortuitous report out of Essex gives her the chance: A winged, fanged “serpent” is reportedly snatching people up outside the sleepy port town of Aldwinter. Armed with her wits, her interest in “naturalism,” her curious son Francis, and adventurous maid/companion Martha (Hayley Squires), Cora leaves her comfortable London life to solve the mystery once and for all. But she quickly finds herself at odds with the paranoid, God-fea...
Disney+ Surpasses Subscriber Growth Expectations, Gaining Traction on Netflix
It appears that Disney+ is one step closer to eclipsing Netflix as the top streaming platform. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney+ has surpassed Wall Street’s performance expectations from last quarter, adding 7.9 million subscribers to its platform. Wall Street only expected Disney+ to add 4.5 to 5 million new subscribers. While the subscriber count has been up, Disney fell slightly short on the expected earnings. Disney reported revenue of $19.2 billion USD falling short of Wall Street’s $20.1 billion USD expectation. Disney also reported an income of $3.7 billion USD. After this quarter, Disney+ now has 137.7 million subscribers in total, putting them ahead of Hulu and ESPN+. Disney’s media and entertainment distribution division also saw growth reporting a 9% increase in reven...
‘Stranger Things’ Debuts Season 4 Ensemble Poster
Netflix on Thursday unveiled the official ensemble poster for Stranger Things season four, which is scheduled to arrive on the streaming service in two parts, beginning May 27. Aside from illustrations of the series’ main characters, including Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), Max (Sadie Sink), Mike (Finn Wolfhard), Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin), Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo), Will (Noah Schnapp) and more, the new poster, which was created by digital artist Kyle Lambert, includes several motifs that first appeared in the trailer for the upcoming season.

The season four cast also includes Charlie Heaton, Priah Ferguson, Brett Gelman, Cara Buono, M...
Bloom Vol 16: The Power of Sensitivity
Alanis Morissette and the notion of sensitivity hadn’t ever been paired together before for me. Years back, we used a website called the random Alanis Morissette song generator which would, after the input of a few choice words, spit back to you a song full of resentment and malice for your enjoyment. Her grunge-infused success never stirred me as coming from a sensitive soul either. Jagged Little Pill sold a fascinating haul of over 30 million records, propelling her to stardom and a permanent place in the history of American music. It also catapulted her into a world that she would have to prepare herself for deeply, and compensate within; at moments, one she’d have to survive. “They wanted the outcome and the fruit of my trait,” Alanis said in an interview with the legendary Elaine Aaro...
My Chemical Romance Release First Song Since 2014
Nearly two-and-a-half years after playing their only reunion show in Los Angeles (before that whole COVID thing), My Chemical Romance have released new music. Titled “The Foundations of Decay,” the six-minute song is the band’s first new track since 2014. [embedded content][embedded content] Despite the reunion (and subsequent pause between shows), it was never clear if My Chemical Romance intended to release any new music. That question is now answered. The song is a welcome return, with its blend of emo and post-hardcore. If you go way back to March 2020, My Chemical Romance were one of the first artists to postpone their tour due to the COVID pandemic. But if you kept your tickets, your patience will have paid off. My Chem returns to the road later this month in the UK and Europe, and w...

Las Vegas Nightlife Was In a Rut—Then Zouk Group Came Around
If the pandemic proved anything, it was that even the mightiest could fall. Case in point was Las Vegas, a city whose economy was dependent on sin but suddenly found itself devoid of sinners. In March 2021, the number of visitors to Las Vegas dipped a staggering 49.5% compared to March 2019, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. But the numbers were only part of the story. If you visited Vegas during the pandemic, odds are you saw a shell of the hedonistic lotusland you once knew. Masks concealed the unbridled joy of a newlywed couple who hit blackjack; sanitizer stations replaced water fountains; and understaffed teams trudged around sticky, soda-stained casino floors under constant threat of being furloughed. So when Zouk Group came around, Las Vegas was in a rut....
