Pusha T Speaks on Possibility of New Clipse Album: “I’m Very Confident”
Pusha T is “very confident” and “pushing” for the return of Clipse, his hip-hop duo with brother No Malice. In a recent SiriusXM interview, the rapper shared that he believes his brother is more keen on releasing new music thanks to their work on the I Know NIGO collab “Punch Bowl.” That track snowballed into the creation of the It’s Almost Dry closer “I Pray For You.” King Push shared, “I’m pushing for a Clipse album. I want it to happen. You know, it’s up to him, but I am very confident. I didn’t know we always could do one. I’m very confident we can do a Clipse album.” He also explained that many were excited to hear No Malice, who changed his changed name from Malice in 2012, on those cuts. “People have been very vocal from the “Punch Bowl” record to this record,” Pusha said. “Even thi...
Metric Announce New Album Formentera and 2022 Tour Dates
Metric have announced their return with a new album, lead single, and massive North American tour. Entitled Formentera, the the Canadian band’s eighth studio album arrives on July 8th. Of the lead single, “All Comes Crashing,” frontwoman Emily Haines said it “is a love song that goes beyond romantic love, it’s an expression of solidarity with whoever it is you would want to have beside you in the event of catastrophe.” The track reflects this as it switches from buzzing, pulsing choruses and quiet, reflective verses. “Starting over won’t be easy, broken divided/ Split tomorrow from today,” sings Haines. “Knowing what you know/ Just makes it harder to think straight/ Starting after it breaks.” You can check out the “All Comes Crashing” video from director Justin Broadbent ahead.

Regina Spektor Shares Thunderous New Single “Up the Mountain”: Stream
Later this spring, Regina Spektor will return with her eighth studio album Home, before and after. Before its June 24th release via Warner, the prolific pop artist has shared another preview with a new single called “Up the Mountain.” “Up the Mountain” is a song that feels just as bold and daring as its name implies. Weaving electronic elements and orchestral arrangements with her standard piano, the song is a chugging, theatrical ode to persistence: “In the forest, there’s a garden/ Gotta get in there,” Spektor repeats in the opening lines. Co-produced by Spektor along with acclaimed studio vet John Congleton, “Up the Mountain” is just a taste of the liveliness and whimsy Home, before and after has in store.

Rammstein Unleash New Album Zeit: Stream
German industrial-metal masters Rammstein have unleashed their eighth album, Zeit. The LP, which can be streamed below, comes exactly three years after the release of their previous full-length, 2019’s untitled effort. Rammstein had extensive tour plans lined up for their 2019 album, but the pandemic forced them off the road before they can play any 2020 shows. Instead of waiting around to hit the concert stage again, the band hit the studio to record Zeit, resulting in a relatively quick turnaround following a near 10-year gap between their two previous albums. Now, Rammstein will, in essence, be supporting two new albums when they finally resume touring next month in Europe. Among the dynamic live act’s 2022 dates is the band’s first-ever full-scale North American stadium tour, which was...

“Feel Safe to Be Yourself”: How SOFI TUKKER’s Sophomore Album Speaks to the Power of Positivity
What do Larry Bird, tennis, and persimmons have in common?

There are three levels to the album’s title: the “WET” part, the “TENNIS” part, and the full acronym. &...
