There’s a delicious irony to an album called Wormslayer planting relentless earworms in the mind that tunnel through it for days on end. Listeners fond of hook-laden, grand-scale sonic storytelling will find that English rock band Kula Shaker’s eighth effort delivers mystic folk rock every bit as adventuresome as Frank Herbert’s Dune—(ear)worms included. Wormslayer sees
Alex Warren went into the 2026 Grammy Awards on a high. He was nominated for Best New Artist and scheduled to perform alongside his fellow nominees in a medley that would feature his hit single “Ordinary.” But 30 seconds before he hit the stage, just as Katseye concluded their performance, Warren realized his in-ears weren’t

It’s been nearly 15 years since Justin Townes Earle first met Sammy Brue outside an Ogden, Utah club that the pre-teen guitarist and Earle admirer wasn’t old enough to enter. Earle became a mentor to Brue that night, changing the course of Brue’s life. Earle eventually asked Brue to be on the cover of hisSingle
Julian Lage, 38 years old, is part of the generation of jazz guitarists who follow the block of Pat Metheny, John Scofield, and Bill Frisell and have absorbed the way that mainstream jazz (learned in school) and modern popular music (rock, indie or otherwise; soul; funk; hip-hop) can work together seamlessly. The guitar is, of
Landing in the transitional period between post-punk and new wave, Leisure Process were but one of a dozen acts trying to get a foothold in the ever-changing UK pop landscape during the 1980s. Singer Ross Middleton, in fact, had punk roots in a previous group, Scotland’s Positive Noise, a valuable platform that allowed him to
A new slasher is entering the battlefield of modern horror — and it’s bringing something far more dangerous than just a knife. Deathstalker Productions has released the first teaser trailer for A Soldier’s Descent, an intense new slasher film that fuses brutal genre thrills with a grounded look at the psychological aftermath of war. The
It’s been a rough start to 2026 for fans of the Grateful Dead after guitarist and co-founder Bob Weir passed away on 10 January at age 78. Tribute shows by local musicians around the Bay Area occurred literally every night for the next week, followed by a public memorial event at the San Francisco Civic
A powerhouse trio of independent horror veterans has announced the development of “Dead Road”, a visceral new entry into the zombie subgenre. The project is currently in the early stages of development, promising a fresh, high-octane take on the undead apocalypse.

Albert Kriemler approached Akris Fall 2026 from a deeply tactile perspective. Collaborating with Colombian textile artist Olga de Amaral, the designer explored the relationship between weaving and storytelling, building a collection rooted in texture, craftsmanship, and sensory experience. “I don’t think in words; I think in touch and texture,” Kriemler said when describing his process.
The television series Avatar: The Last Airbender has enjoyed a long cultural lifespan for a Nickelodeon cartoon. Since its release, critics have praised its ability to convey heavy emotional themes through a medium aimed at a young audience. Pop music, which also caters to a young demographic, has transformed over the last 25 years to
Is French Noir a redundant term? After all, “noir” is already French. French critics first applied the word to Hollywood films they perceived as dark in outlook, photography, and themes. Critics and film buffs in the US and elsewhere slowly accepted the term and began throwing it around as if everyone grasped its amorphous, terminally
At Paris Fashion Week, Georges Hobeika presented a Fall 2026 collection that balanced tailored structure with ornate eveningwear, offering looks designed for women drawn to shine, texture, and embellishment. The runway showcased a mix of menswear-inspired silhouettes alongside delicate, embellished dresses that emphasized craftsmanship through lace, beadwork, and intricate surface detail. Structured jackets and corseted
Taroug’snew album,Chott, is named after a giant salt lake in Tunisia. The sound of its latest single, however, is more befitting that of an ocean than a lake. “1995” is enormous, echoey, and expansive—the vocals soaked with reverb, the drums lurching and heaving with the weight of a ship’s anchor. There’s a real “something-wicked-this-way-comes” energyhere,
Megadrought, the latest album from composer Devin Maxwell, is ambitious enough on its own, but the fact that it is the third of four planned releases makes the scope of Maxwell’s musical imagination seem infinitely wider. The four albums – the first two being Timebending (2024) and Selfies (2025) – are part of Maxwell’s “Cloudseeding”
As a jazz studies drummer at the University of Michigan, Erik Hall encountered a life-changing moment when he was first exposed to Steve Reich‘s enormously influential Music for 18 Musicians. Long considered a lodestar of the minimalist genre, Reich’s piece influenced Hall to the point that he reconstructed it as a solo artist, painstakingly recreating
I’ll admit, I was a little worried for The Night Agent last month. Given the way Season 3 ended on the 2026 TV schedule, I wondered if this might be the end of the series, as so many Netflix subscription-exclusive shows have been cancelled after just three seasons. Fortunately, Netflix announced today that The Night
After years of talk about Hollywood reimagining The Bride of Frankenstein for the modern age, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! is among new 2026 movies out this week, and it’s time to talk about the ending. This is your SPOILER WARNING for the rest of this article. Go see it in theaters before reading on. Christian
Outlander has officially returned to television for the eighth and final season, with Starz making good on the promise to bring the drama back early in the 2026 TV schedule. The show has just ten episodes to not only pick up where Season 8 left off with the extended Fraser family, but wrap up a
17 years ago today, Zack Snyder left his first stamp on the superhero movie genre with Watchmen, his film adaptation of the same-named beloved comic book series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. From there, he would direct Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and his original vision for Justice League, which
The family dinner scenes in Blue Bloods are iconic and infamous. It’s no secret that they were “miserable” to film, and many in the cast have divulged their tips about how they got through them. Now, the cast of Boston Blue has to film scenes like this. So, I asked Marcus Scribner how he gets
Warning! Soilers ahead for 9-1-1 Season 9, Episode 12, “Dads and Cads” and 9-1-1: Nashville Season 1, Episode 12, “Spirit of the Games.” Both are streaming now with a Hulu subscription. The much-anticipated crossover between 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Nashville aired on Thursday night on the 2026 TV schedule, and it was pretty intense. The event
Alan Ritchson has developed quite a following through three seasons of Reacher, and while Season 4 is on the way — “the best season we’ve ever made by a long shot,” the actor says — we don’t have to wait for its release to see Ritchson return to action. War Machine hit the 2026 movie
It’s been 50 years since All The President’s Men was released in 1976, an incredible year in film. It’s a movie I’ve watched a few times over the years. As a political science major in college (and a film buff), it was in my semi-regular rotation, and I still think it’s the best political thriller
When The Mandalorian and Grogu opens on the 2026 movies schedule in May, you won’t see The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White, only hear him. That’s because he’s voicing Rotta the Hutt in the upcoming Star Wars movie, and our first teasing look at Jabba’s adult son in the teaser trailer released last September showed he’s
Sydney Sweeney has had no shortage of success recently, between her latest movie, The Housemaid, becoming a box office smash and her viral lingerie brand SYRN being so in demand that one line sold out in the matter of hours. However, the actress has also been the subject of a number of controversies as well,
In the wake of the death of Grateful Dead co-founder and guitarist Bob Weir, his Dead & Company bandmate John Mayer looked to listen to Grateful Dead music to find some comfort. Instead, Mayer said it made him feel more solitary. So, to bring the community together, the singer-guitarist is launching a Grateful Dead Listening
