Trent Reznor, Dua Lipa and The Killers Dig Deep in Song Exploder Season Two Trailer
The second season Song Exploder, the Netflix series based on the podcast of the same name, premieres globally on Dec. 15 and just dropped its first trailer. In it, one of the most powerful moments is when Trent Reznor is seen listening to the classic Nine Nails song “Hurt” and reflecting, “I felt alone. That’s me not knowing who I am anymore: I think I said ‘I’m sorry.’ Then it exploded unexpectedly.” In addition to Nine Inch Nails, the series features The Killers, Dua Lipa and Natalia Lafourcade. The lineup was initially announced in October. A deep dive into the “deeply personal” Killers hit “When You Were Young” reveals that “those first three chords awakened us,” while Lafourcade shares that to get beyond a block for “Hasta La Raíz” where “the music did fe...
The Strokes Battle Robots on ‘The Adults Are Talking’ Video
The Strokes are not very good at sports, at least not in their new music video for “The Adults Are Talking.” The video is directed by Roman Coppola, who previously worked with the band on several clips from 2001’s Is This It. In an intense game of baseball, the band is losing by 56 runs, which will happen if you stick to making catchy indie rock riffs instead of working out. The song is from this year’s The New Abnormal, their sixth studio album, and echoes the nostalgic sound of Is This It. It’s probably not unexpected that they’re losing the game, as the opposing team is made up of robots. However, The Strokes certainly do not strike out; The New Abnormal was just nominated for a Grammy for Best Rock Album—up against Fontaines D.C., Sturgill Simpson, Michael Kiwanuka, and Grace...

Harry Styles Helped Nick Kroll Pop The Question to His Wife in Style
The couple had just moved into a new house, and Kroll put a huge bouquet of flowers into a moving box with the ring in the center of the arrangement, which he asked Kwong to move for him. When she opened the box and saw the flowers, she was duly surprised, and before they could even snap a picture and call their folks, Styles texted him seeking an update. “‘Have you done it yet? What’s going on?'” Styles apparently asked. And when Kroll relayed that Kwong had said yes, Styles became the very first person to share their joy. “Harry Styles was the first person to know we were getting married… and he gave us his blessing and it meant the world.” Kroll said, adding that Styles also very sweetly sent along a huge bouquet of flowers for the wedding.
