Primus is back with their first new studio track since 2022’s Conspiranoid EP: the blistering, surrealist anthem “Little Lord Fentanyl.” A twisted fable steeped in groove and dark humor, the track features a guest appearance from Maynard James Keenan (Tool, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer), whose unmistakable voice slithers through the chaos with sinister glee.

Today, Ben Harper released his emotional new single, “Before The Rain Dried.” The track is a hauntingly beautiful reflection on loss dedicated to his longtime guitarist Michael Ward. “Before The Rain Dried” is the first single from Harper’s yet to be announced forthcoming new album.

Bruce Springsteen’s “Faithless” — a long-lost film soundtrack to a movie that was never made — will be released in full on “Tracks II: The Lost Albums,” coming June 27 via Sony Music. A meditation on purpose, belief and acceptance — intended to accompany a film described as a "spiritual Western” — Springsteen recorded much of “Faithless” between the conclusion of the “Devils & Dust” tour in November 2005 and the release of “We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions” in April 2006.

Since the early 1990s, when Lonesome River Band’s Sammy Shelor began pulling out a red Telecaster electric guitar to jam away on the group’s signature “Hobo Blues,” the snappy sound of “chicken pickin’” has had a place in the legendary group’s approach to bluegrass.

Four decades after igniting college-radio airwaves and launching R.E.M.’s remarkable career, their 1981 debut single “Radio Free Europe” is broadcasting a new signal.

The release celebrates the 75th anniversary of the “OG” Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), and arrives just ahead of World Press Freedom Day on May 3.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the genre-defying cult classic that transformed midnight cinema and inspired a global phenomenon. First introduced to audiences in 1975, the film quickly became more than just a movie - it sparked a movement.

Philadelphia-based indie rock outfit The Indestructible Water Bear today premiered the music video for their emotionally charged single “I Walk the Night.” The video, now live on YouTube, brings to life the song’s exploration of grief, love’s duality, and the shifting inner landscapes we navigate in times of loss.

Boston's acclaimed roots-rock outfit Autumn Hollow is proud to announce the release of their highly anticipated new album, Say No More, arriving May 2nd. The ten-track collection marks a bold evolution in the band's sound, combining raw live energy with thoughtful sonic exploration.
