Ain’t – “Teething”
In May we heard “Oar,” the promising debut single from the rising UK indie band Ain’t. They have another new song out today, a mathy and propulsive track called “Teething” that lets Hanna Baker Darch flex her vocal prowess between spindly guitar riffs and peels of feedback before properly cutting loose. Like the last one, […]
Donald Trump Posts “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” On Truth Social
First, there were those fake AI-generated “Swifties For Trump” memes that Donald Trump reposted, but denied having any hand in creating.

Shooter Jennings Has Made An Album With Right-Wing Hollywood Pariah James Woods
“Nyah… I’m not a singer.” Remember that? In 1994, James Woods played himself on a classic Simpsons episode. He gets a job at the Kwik-E Mart to prepare for a role, and an armed robber, who recognizes Woods, inexplicably tells him that his next song will be #3 with a bullet. Well, James Woods is […]

Watch The Reunited Soul Coughing Smash Through “Super Bon Bon” In Their First Late-Night Performance In Decades

Thus far, there […]
