QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE
THE END IS NERO TOUR

-The Washington Post
Queens of the Stone Age have announced a run of west coast dates to round out their epic worldwide The End Is Nero tour. Following another run of sold out arenas across the UK & Europe, the band will resume its North American campaign in Phoenix, sweeping through the Southwest before wrapping up 2023 in grand fashion with a December 16 headline at the Kia Forum in its homebase of Los Angeles.
Queens of the Stone Age are pleased to announce Spiritualized will be opening this run of December dates in North America. Led by J Spaceman, Spiritualized are supporting their stunning ninth album, Everything Was Beautiful.
The End is Nero tour is in support of the eighth Queen of the Stone Age studio album, In Times New Roman… recentlyhailed by Variety as “self-produced by band founder Homme and one of his strongest QOTSA lineups ever, is one of the rawest and heaviest albums the band has delivered, and during Saturday’s Queens, New York stop of their The End Is Nero Tour, they proved that sometimes the new material can be a live standout…”

METALLICA
“Too Far Gone? (Live from MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ – August 6, 2023)”
Digital Single Out Now
“Too Far Gone?”
Video Directed by Coan “Buddy” Nichols Live Now
Today marks the release of “Too Far Gone? (Live from MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ – August 6, 2023),” a digital single capturing the debut M72 tour performance of the 72 Seasons standout track as played for some 80,000 fans on night two of the tour’s North American opening weekend. Hailed for “its roaring melody” by the OC Register in their review of Metallica’s recent record-breaking weekend at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, “Too Far Gone?” has quickly become a staple of the M72 No Repeat Weekend setlist rotation. Find out for yourself why the song has quickly become a fan favorite by giving “Too Far Gone? (Live from MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ – August 6, 2023)” a listen HERE.
As for the original studio version of “Too Far Gone?”… it’s been reimagined as a music video directed by Coan “Buddy” Nichols (The Original Skateboarder, The Body Corporate, Deathbowl to Downtown, Love Letters to Skateboarding). Through Nichols’ lens, “Too Far Gone?” becomes the score to raw Metallica performance footage intercut with action shots of pro skater Felipe Nunes. The energy levels of the two scenarios feed off one other, resulting in peak after peak of hyperkinetic intensity—plus a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo from Tony Hawk, who premiered the video yesterday at: https://youtu.be/T-6Cx-VxXxI
Metallica recently completed the first North American swing of its M72 World Tour September 9 in Glendale AZ. The band will make a headlining appearance October 8 at Power Trip at the Empire Polo Club in Indio CA, before M72 resumes with its next No Repeat Weekend taking place November 3 and 5 at the Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis MO.
JENNY LEWIS ANNOUNCES THE JOY’ALL BALL TOUR
WEST COAST SHOWS CONFIRMED FOR NOVEMBER & DECEMBER
VEVO LIVE SESSION FEATURING “CHERRY BABY” NOW LIVE
“Jenny Lewis, it seems, can do it all…Though Lewis shines in stadiums…her superstardom is more apparent up close, a refusal to shrink her charm to fit a venue where guests nearly piled out the door.” – WASHINGTON POST
“Her voice was pristine as ever…in an instant, she could flip to impressive vocal feats, hitting high notes on ‘Red Bull and Hennessy’ that are rarely heard outside of the safety of studios…And the road-ready driving guitar of ‘Love Feel’ felt messier in the best ways, with Lewis fully inhabiting her rock & roll discipleship” – AUSTIN CHRONICLE
“She was a picture of power — a real-life heroine clad in black leather, wind machine touseling her hair.” – AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN
“Jenny Lewis’ Infectious Energy Lights Up New York…From her vibrato in the torchy ‘Acid Tongue’ to some genuine grit during ‘The Next Messiah,’ Lewis’ voice was strong but floated effortlessly over the instrumentation. She seemed especially rejuvenated by the new material, finding a pocket for album tracks like ‘Apples and Oranges’ and ‘Cherry Baby’ that made them sound like old favorites…her music, past and future, left everyone smiling.” – VARIETY
As the tail end of 2023 swiftly approaches, Jenny Lewis shows no signs of slowing down. As if the release of her fifth solo album, Joy’All (Blue Note/Capitol Records), scoring her first #1 on the Adult Alternative Airplay chart with “Psychos,” hitting the road as support on the Beck and Phoenix co-headline Summer Odyssey tour, in addition to her own headline dates––and now currently on the road for the 20th anniversary Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie co-headline tour––weren’t enough, Lewis is kicking it up a notch with the announcement of the Joy’All Ball Tour–a leg of west coast dates heading into the holiday season.
The new leg of headlining dates will kick off in late November and feature stops along the west coast, including: Ventura (Ventura Music Hall), San Luis Obispo (Fremont Theater), Healdsburg (Little Saint), Eugene (McDonald Theatre), Seattle (Paramount Theatre), Portland (Roseland Theatre), San Francisco (The Warfield), Santa Ana (The Observatory) and Los Angeles (Hollywood Palladium).

BEASTIE BOYS SQUARE
Mike Diamond and Adam Horovitz to Attend Unveiling
Site of Paul’s Boutique Album Cover Photo
Corner of Ludlow & Rivington Streets, Lower East Side NYC
Saturday, September 9, 12:00p to 2:00 pm
In commemoration of the unveiling of Beastie Boys Square and 50 years of Hip-Hop, Mike Diamond (Mike D) and Adam Horovitz (Adrock), in association with The City of New York and Council Member Chris Marte, will be celebrating in the Lower East Side on September 9 beginning at 12:00 pm. on Rivington Street between Ludlow and Essex Streets. The celebration will go on until 2:00 p.m., and will feature a special guest DJ set by Jon Bless HiFi System, pop-up activations and more.
Diamond and Horovitz will be in attendance for the dedication of Beastie Boys Square, a renaming of the corner of Ludlow and Rivington Streets, the site where the iconic gatefold cover of the band’s sophomore album Paul’s Boutique was shot.
The christening of Beastie Boys Square marks another milestone in Beastie Boys’ decades-long relationship with New York City. Beastie Boys and NYC have been inextricably intertwined since the band was formed at the late Adam “MCA” Yauch’s 17th birthday in uptown Manhattan, quickly becoming a staple of the city’s hardcore punk underground. The relationship grew in depth and complexity as the trio’s debut album Licensed to Ill became the first rap record to hit #1 on the US album chart, reaching an early apex with the 1989 release of Paul’s Boutique. Sorely under-appreciated upon its original release, Paul’s Boutique has since grown dramatically in stature — often referred to as the “Sgt. Pepper’s of hip hop,” certified double platinum by the RIAA for sales of 2 million, and appearing on all-time best-of lists including TIME, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, SPIN, and many more.
Paul’s Boutique also carries the distinction of being arguably the Beastie Boys album most steeped in New York culture (despite being recorded in Los Angeles), with lyrical references including the Ramones, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, the Village, Chrystie Street, the D Train, Ed Koch, the Knicks, the Yankees, Shea Stadium, the Palladium, Phil Rizzuto, the Atlantic Antic, the New York Post, El Diario, Bernard Goetz, Broadway, Jazzy Jay, Bad Brains, and more.
Additionally, the ongoing celebration of the 50 years of Hip-Hop includes the cinema debut of the Apple Original Film Beastie Boys Story, directed by Beastie Boys collaborator and Academy Award winner Spike Jonze, at the IFC Center in Greenwich Village with showings on both Friday, September 8 and Saturday, September 9 at 11:30pm.
And last, but certainly not least, SiriusXM will be relaunching their exclusive Beastie Boys Channel this Thursday, September 7th. Tune in to channel 105 for classics, deep cuts, live recordings and more.
NIRVANA
IN UTERO: 30TH ANNIVERSARY
MULTI-FORMAT REISSUES ARRIVE OCTOBER 27, 2023
FEATURING 53 PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED TRACKS INCLUDING TWO NEVER-BEFORE RELEASED COMPLETE CONCERTS FROM THE IN UTERO TOUR, ALBUM NEWLY REMASTERED FROM ORIGINAL ANALOG STEREO TAPES & MORE
AVAILABLE IN 8LP SUPER DELUXE, 5CD SUPER DELUXE, 1LP + 10”, 2CD DELUXE, & DIGITAL
To say that Nirvana‘s third and ultimately final studio album In Utero was one of the most impactful records of the modern era would be an understatement. Originally released September 21, 1993, In Utero‘s unadorned sonic rawness was received by critics and fans with equal measures of shock and elation, as Steve Albini‘s recording laid bare every primal nuance of the most confrontational yet vulnerable material Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl would ever record. And with its 1991 predecessor Nevermind having sold some 30 million copies and causing a seismic pop cultural shift, In Utero was essentially the first record Nirvana would make with any expectations from the public. So from the opening quasi-shamble melodics of “Serve The Servants” through the bittersweet closing strains of “All Apologies,” In Utero was the sound of the most incredible yet conflicted musical force of the era at the peak of its powers coming to terms with a generational spokes-band mantle they’d never seen coming—and ultimately surmounting these struggles to make the record they needed to make.
In Utero went on to mark Nirvana’s first #1 debut on the Billboard 200 and has since been certified 6x platinum in the United States.
Geffen/UMe commemorates the 30th anniversary of In Utero with several multi-format reissues, arriving on October 27, 2023. Configurations include a limited-edition 8LP Super Deluxe box set, 5CD Super Deluxe box set, 1 LP + 10” edition, 2CD Deluxe edition, and a Digital Super Deluxe edition.
Pre-order/Pre-save Nirvana – In Utero: 30th Anniversary HERE.
The three Super Deluxe Edition releases comprise a total of 72 tracks with 53 previously unreleased tracks. Among the unreleased material, two full In Utero-era concerts, namely Live In Los Angeles (1993) and the band’s final Seattle performance, Live In Seattle(1994), are included in addition to six bonus live tracks from Rome, Springfield, and New York. Seattle producer and engineer Jack Endino—who helmed the band’s 1988 debut Bleach—reconstructed the live tracks from stereo soundboard tapes for this year’s reissue. Additionally, In Utero’s original twelve songs, along with five bonus tracks and B-sides, have been newly remastered from the original analog master stereo tapes by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Services—who assisted Albini as the only other engineer at the original sessions.
Check out the full tracklisting below.
The physical Super Deluxe Edition box sets also boast a removable front-cover acrylic panel with the album’s iconic Angel; a 48-page hardcover book with unreleased photos; a 20-page newly designed fanzine; a Los Angeles tour poster lithograph by hot rod artist Coop; replicas of the 1993 record store promo Angel mobile, three gig fliers, two ticket stubs for Los Angeles and Seattle, an All-Access tour laminate, and four cloth sticky tour backstage passes: Press, Photo, After Show, and Local Crew.
Available exclusively at online stores at uDiscovermusic.com and SoundofVinyl.com and limited to 3000 units worldwide, fans who buy either Super Deluxe Edition will receive a Nirvana acrylic stand to display their angel-on-acrylic panel included in both boxset configurations.
Nirvana recorded In Utero over the course of six days in February 1993 at Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, MN with Albini. Retrospectively, Pitchfork rated it a rare perfect score of “10.0” and wrote, “In Utero is the sort of painful shock that, paradoxically, reinstills the empowering sensation of feeling alive.” Upon its arrival back in 1993, David Fricke wrote in Rolling Stone, “In Utero is a lot of things—brilliant, corrosive, enraged and thoughtful, most of them all at once. But more than anything, it’s a triumph of the will.”
Be on the lookout for more news about In Utero: 30TH Anniversary Edition very soon.

ABOUT NIRVANA:
Formed by friends Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic, Nirvana emerged from Aberdeen, Washington in 1987. The band’s full-length debut Bleach was recorded in 30 hours for $606.17 and released in 1988 on Sub Pop, soon becoming the biggest seller in the label’s history. Joined by drummer Dave Grohl, the trio delivered Nevermind in 1991, peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200, going RIAA Diamond in the United States, and moving over 30 million copies worldwide as “one of the best-selling albums of all-time,” according to Soundscan. The 1993 follow-up In Utero bowed at #1 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified platinum in 10 countries and gold in 9 more. The Nirvana catalog is also highlighted in the U.S. by the newly Diamond-certified single “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” platinum Incesticide[1992], 8x-platinum MTV Unplugged in New York [1994], and platinum From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah [1996]. Nirvana was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame® during its first year of eligibility in 2014. Beyond selling a total of 75 million records globally, the band has collected 1 American Music Award, 1 BRIT Award, 7 MTV VMA Awards, and 2 GRAMMY® Awards, including a Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY® Award in 2023. Standing out as one of the most-streamed rock bands of the modern era, Nirvana’s music has endured through generations and eras at an unmatched level of influence.

DANGER MOUSE & JEMINI
“Born Again” Single OUT NOW
Born Again – Album Out Tomorrow
Celebrated producer and musician Danger Mouse and talented New York rapper Jemini (aka Jemini The Gifted One) have released shimmering single, “Born Again” – listen here.
“Born Again” is a bouncy-yet-bittersweet hip-hop track inspired by redemption and overcoming adversity; the single follows the swaggering “Brooklyn Bazquiat” and is the title track of the duo’s second album.
Danger Mouse & Jemini’s Born Again album was recorded back in 2004, yet has remained unreleased for nearly two decades now. This previously unheard and long-delayed record will finally be made available tomorrow (25th August) via Lex Records. The release coincides with the twentieth anniversary of Danger Mouse & Jemini’s 2003 debut LP – and Danger Mouse’s first official release on a record label – hip-hop cult classic, Ghetto Pop Life.
Read more about the backstory to Born Again here.
“Born Again is everything you could hope for and more with Danger Mouse laying down a varying display of his talents while Jemini’s verses are delivered with pure passion.” – GLIDE MAGAZINE
“The track opens the door to a hip-hop era long gone.” – CONSEQUENCE (on “Brooklyn Bazquiat”)
“It’s a bold, confident, boom bap song with a fun flute loop and the hook plays off the same Slick Rick interpolation as Biggie’s ‘Hypnotize.’” – BROOKLYN VEGAN (on “Brooklyn Bazquiat”)

GHOST DEVOTIONAL POP-UP

As Ghost’s September 11-12 headline stand at the Kia Forum looms ever closer, the GRAMMY Museum® in Los Angeles has unveiled the Ghost Devotional Pop-Up.

Make amends and leave atoned, with a souvenir photo of the experience.
The Ghost Devotional Pop-Up was designed and fabricated by Justin Ware of Creativeware (Beastie Boys Exhibit at Orange County Museum of Art) and built by carpenter/welder Greg S. Gilday (The Mandalorian, Tenet, Westworld). The custom created structure will be accompanied by a museum installation displaying Papa Emeritus III’s outfit worn at the 2015 GRAMMYs® —the year Ghost took the Best Metal Performance award for “Cirice” from the band’s third album, Meliora.

ABOUT GHOST:
GHOST continues to elevate and reaffirm its status as one of the world’s most celebrated creative forces. Accumulating well over a billion streams, the GRAMMY-winning Swedish theatrical rock band continues to bring the “euphoric spectacle” (ROLLING STONE) of its live shows to ever-growing and increasingly impassioned crowds, headlining arena tours including sold out shows from the Forum in Los Angeles and Barclays Center in New York to London’s O2 Arena and Stockholm’s Avicii Arena. In March 2022, THE LOS ANGELES TIMES reported in a Calendar cover story that Ghost had “conquered metal and the charts” when its fifth album IMPERA debuted at #1 in a sweep of the U.S. album charts, entering the BILLBOARD 200 at #2 and bowing at #1 in the band’s native Sweden as well as Germany and Finland, while cracking the top 5 in the UK (#2), Netherlands (#2), Belgium (#2), Canada (#3), Australia (#3), France (#5), Ireland (#5), and more. Produced by Klas Åhlund and mixed by Andy Wallace — and featuring “Spillways”—hailed as a “sweetly constructed rock tune” by THE NEW YORK TIMES and recently reimagined with Joe Elliott of Def Leppard, the #7 YouTube trending GRAMMY-nominated “Call Me Little Sunshine,” and Active Rock #1 radio single “Hunter’s Moon” — IMPERA finds Ghost transported centuries forward from the Black Plague era of its previous album, 2018 Best Rock Album GRAMMY nominee Prequelle—or as ROLLING STONE put it, “Ghost predicted the pandemic, Now the metal band is foretelling the fall of empires.” The result is the most ambitious and lyrically incisive entry in the Ghost canon: Over the course of IMPERA’s 12-song cycle, empires rise and fall, would-be messiahs ply their hype (financial and spiritual alike), prophecies are foretold as the skies fill with celestial bodies divine and man-made… All in all, the most current and topical Ghost subject matter to date is set against a hypnotic and darkly colorful melodic backdrop making IMPERA a listen like no other — yet unmistakably, quintessentially Ghost. Ghost closed out 2022 by cracking the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time, with the RIAA gold-certified “Mary on a Cross.” Earlier this year, in the wake of IMPERA winning Favorite Rock Album at the American Music Awards and Best Rock Album of the Year at the iHeart Radio Music Awards, Ghost unveiled PHANTOMIME, a five-song covers EP intended from the start to follow IMPERA. A diverse and spellbinding sampling of Ghost’s musical DNA, PHANTOMIME is comprised of covers of classics and deep cuts by Television, Genesis, The Stranglers, Iron Maiden and Tina Turner. PHANTOMIME pays tribute in equal measure to every one of these unique influences while stamping them all with Ghost’s undeniable sonic signature. Currently, Ghost is in the midst of a triumphant return to North America, in the form of its RE-IMPERATOUR U.S.A. 2023, making stops in more than two dozen cities before its two-night finale the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on September 11th and 12th.
QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE
“Negative Space”
New Video Directed by Liam Lynch
The End Is Nero North American Tour Kicks Off Tonight in Detroit
Inaugural Queens Colosseum Pre-Show Bacchanal to Descend Upon Toronto
Queens of the Stone continue to prove themselves “a band reaching the peak of their powers” (NME). Following a triumphant reign over some of the UK and Europe’s most hallowed festival grounds including “officially one of the most-watched Glasto sets ever – Josh Homme and co. pulled a huge crowd and unleashed pure chaotic joy” (Kerrang), Queens of the Stone Age are back with the latest audiovisual odyssey from their international chart-topping opus In Times New Roman… a brand new video for “Negative Space.” As with previous videos from this campaign, “Negative Space” was created by, starring and directed by Liam Lynch, who states:
“Acceptance is lonely, messy, and tough, especially when it’s all that is left. This video takes place between the end and a beginning. It’s the desperate and lost, message-in-a-bottle emotions that are tossed out and let float away. No action required.”
Prepare to dodge some cosmic debris and take a trip to “Negative Space” here.
In the wake of In Times New Roman… achieving global domination — including #1s in four countries, top 3 positions in six more and a sweep of US #1s across the Vinyl, Independent, Alternative, Digital, Rock and Hard Music Album Sales charts — Queens of the Stone Age kick off the extensive North American leg of their The End Is Nero tour tonight at Detroit’s Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre at Freedom Hill with special guests The Armed and Phantogram. With several shows already sold out, Joshua Homme, Troy Van Leeuwen, Dean Fertita, Michael Shuman and Jon Theodore will continue to span the globe through the end of 2023. To get your tickets now go to https://qotsa.com/tour/
Queens of the Stone Agealso extend a formal invite to their inaugural Queens Colosseum pre-show party experience, taking place August 4th in Toronto at Budweiser Stage — ahead of the band’s headlining show. Fans are encouraged to “Dance Like No One is Surviving,” as they immerse themselves in a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience a Queens of the Stone Age curated extravaganza including an exclusive merchandise line, burlesque dancers, local vendors featuring everything from books to records to oddities and art, live silk-screen printing, vintage clothing and more. The Queens Colosseum event starts at 4PM and runs through the start of the show, with access available to ticket purchasers only.
More information — and future Queens Colosseum events — can be found at https://qotsa.com/news/

METALLICA, PANTHEON MEDIA & POPCULT
Present
THE METALLICA REPORT
Weekly Podcast Featuring News, Updates, Exclusive Features and Surprises from Metallica HQ and Beyond
Today marks the debut episode of The Metallica Report, a new podcast offering weekly insider updates on all things Metallica. Broadcasting directly from the band’s Northern California headquarters, The Metallica Report will be hosted by two of the closest members of the Metallica family: Steffan Chirazi, whose history with Metallica spans from covering the band as journalist in the ‘80s to his current role as editor of the band’s online mag, So What!, and Renée Richardson, Director of Philanthropy for the band’s All Within My Hands foundation, and well-known Bay Area radio personality.
Each episode of The Metallica Report will feature Steffan and Renée keeping listeners informed with the latest news and updates from Metallica HQ, as well as dispatches from the road as the M72 Tour continues to make its way around the world. The Report’s mini-features will offer exclusive behind the scenes news and interviews with the likes of the touring crew, poster and T-shirt artists, fans, and even James, Lars, Kirk and Robert themselves.
In addition to the most inside and up to date Metallica news, The Metallica Report will be taking requests: Listeners are encouraged to submit questions, and Steffan and Renée will do their best to offer answers every Wednesday.
The Metallica Report is produced and distributed by Pantheon Media and reunites the Metallica team with co-producers PopCult, with whom they worked on 2021’s The Metallica Podcast: Volume 1.
“PopCult is excited to be working again with Metallica to expand their podcast footprint and to launch our first partnership with Pantheon,” says PopCult partner Lars Murray. “Metallica and their global community are inexhaustible sources of interesting news and stories. The Metallica Report will be a ‘must-listen’ for longtime fans, as well as folks who might be diving in for the first time.”
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Metallica to produce a weekly news podcast that will give fans an inside look at the band’s world,” says Christian Swain, CEO of Pantheon Media. “The Metallica Report represents an exciting new chapter for Pantheon, as we continue to push the boundaries of audio entertainment with our partner PopCult. Metallica’s standing as one of the most influential bands in music history, along with their commitment to their global community of fans, makes them the perfect partner for us.”

Renée Richardson is the Director of Philanthropy for Metallica’s foundation, All Within My Hands.

Renée’s radio career began in the late 90s as Renée Rotten on KITS/LIVE 105, and a few years later, she rebranded as Renée Richardson and joined the KFOG Morning Show. Her 17 years as a “Foghead” were spent as an on-air announcer, music programmer, and she cultivated the Bay Area’s music scene as assistant producer of the KFOG Local Scene series. After an unexpected showing of the door by Cumulus Media in 2016, Renée prioritized philanthropy. She spent three incredible years as Director of Development for Blue Bear School of Music, a 501(c)(3) music school in San Francisco, while also working with “Irish” Greg McQuaid to create Renée & Irish Greg’s Pop-Up Show, an immersive live and in-person podcast featuring music, conversation, and a fundraising element for various NPOs. When the call came, she was positioned perfectly to take on her new role with Metallica’s foundation. Renée is a Missouri School of Auction trained auctioneer and a voice actor best known for her role as a Chevron talking car. She lives with her husband, Mike, and a toothless chihuahua named Rocco.

BECK & PHOENIX
“ODYSSEY”
INSTRUMENTAL VERSION AVAILABLE NOW VIA DSPs
LIMITED EDITION COLOR VINYL 7” OUT AUGUST 1st
Beck and Phoenix will mark the kick-off of their hotly anticipated Summer Odyssey tour with the physical release of their collaborative sun-splashed banger, “Odyssey.” On August 1st, the same day they co-headline Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, the Beck and Phoenix collaborative single hailed by UPROXX as “an empowered, shimmering anthem” and by FLOOD as “a joyful slice of hedonistic disco-pop” will be released as a limited edition yellow vinyl 7-inch single featuring the newly digitally released “Odyssey (Instrumental)” on its B-side.
The “Odyssey”/“Odyssey (Instrumental)” 7” will be available from the Beck, Phoenix and Capitol Records online stores, select retailers, and of course at venues throughout the Summer Odyssey tour. “Odyssey (Instrumental)” is available today across digital platforms.
Three minutes and 47 seconds of sheer audio bliss, “Odyssey” is written, produced and performed by Beck and Phoenix, and mixed by Serban Ghenea. Beck and Thomas Mars nimbly trade lead vocals on the song’s verses, with the full cast joining to create the irresistible earworms of its choruses and each “Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah” singalong refrain. The result is two unmistakable sonic signatures combining to create something beyond the sum of its parts.
“Odyssey” is the spontaneous and perfect theme song for Beck and Phoenix’s eagerly anticipated co-headline Summer Odyssey tour. Produced by Live Nation, the 19-city run kicks off on Tuesday, August 1st in Seattle at Climate Pledge Arena, with stops including the Kia Forum in Los Angeles and both artists’ headlining return to New York’s Madison Square Garden, before wrapping up September 10th in Columbia, MD at Merriweather Post Pavilion. The tour will feature an array of support artists described by Beck and Mars as a “class of ’23” lineup, featuring Japanese Breakfast, Jenny Lewis, and Weyes Blood on select dates with Sir Chloe.

EXCLUSIVE GLOBAL PERFORMANCE OF NEW ALBUM
‘blur present The Ballad of Darren’
July 25th, 2023 – 9pm BST
Livestream Tickets Available Here
Less than 6 months since Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree first came back together at Damon’s studio in West London to discuss the possibility of recording a new blur album, the band’s highly-anticipated new studio album The Ballad of Darren is released today on Parlophone/Warner. Listen here.
The Ballad of Darren is blur’s ninth studio album – their first in 8 years and produced by James Ford – comprising 10 new tracks recorded at Studio 13 in London and Devon in spring this year. The May 18th album announcement came as a huge surprise to fans, coinciding with a tiny yet epic show at Colchester Arts Centre and the release of a brand new track ‘The Narcissist’, as well as the reveal of an already iconic album cover featuring an image by celebrated British photographer Martin Parr CBE which has put Scotland’s Gourock Outdoor Pool well and truly on the map.
The release of The Ballad of Darren follows a triumphant weekend of music and joy at Wembley Stadium on July 8th and 9th, two extraordinary and hugely emotional shows which captured “…a sense of momentousness [Financial Times ★★★★★]” and “…fizzed with the vibrant energy of a band in their prime [Evening Standard ★★★★★].
Next week sees the band back on stage in London for something completely different: a very special global performance of the new album, live streamed via Driift from London’s Eventim Apollo, Hammersmith on Tuesday July 25th 2023 at 9pm BST. Titled ‘blur present The Ballad of Darren’, the performance will be the first and only time the band will play the complete album live from start to finish, allowing fans around the world to experience the new record together as part of an intimate one-off music event. Tickets and information here.
The band is on the road for the rest of the year with a tour which will take blur from Europe to Japan and back to South America.

PAUL McCARTNEY & PAUL MULDOON ANNOUNCE NEW PODCAST
McCARTNEY: A LIFE IN LYRICS FROM PUSHKIN INDUSTRIES AND IHEARTPODCASTS
The podcast, which follows the #1 bestseller The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present, debuts September 20, with each episode focusing on one song in McCartney’s iconic catalog – from early Beatles to his solo work.
Paul McCartney is teaming up once again with poet Paul Muldoon, his collaborator on the #1 bestseller The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present. This time, McCartney will invite listeners into his creative process with a new podcast co-produced by Pushkin Industries and iHeartPodcasts, out September 20, 2023.
McCartney: A Life in Lyrics is a combination master class, memoir, and improvised journey with one of the most beloved figures in popular music, where each episode focuses on one song from McCartney’s iconic catalog – spanning early Beatles through his solo work.
The podcast offers listeners an unrivaled opportunity to sit in on conversations between McCartney and Muldoon where they dissect the people, experiences, and art that inspired McCartney’s songwriting. The stories are richly interwoven with contemporary music and soundscapes, providing a revelatory and entertaining window into a true creative genius.
“When we listened back to the tapes, we realized there was something very special happening in these conversations,” Muldoon explains in the prologue episode, out now. “It was McCartney unfiltered.”
Season 1 features 12 episodes that include timeless favorites like “Eleanor Rigby,” “Back in the USSR,” “Let It Be,” “When Winter Comes,” “Penny Lane,” “Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey,” “Here Today,” “Live and Let Die,” “Magical Mystery Tour,” “Jenny Wren,” “Too Many People,” and “Helter Skelter.” Superfans can binge all of the first season immediately at release with a Pushkin+ subscription. Season 2 will follow with an additional 12 episodes in February of 2024.
McCartney and Muldoon have previously collaborated with great success in the #1 New York Times bestseller The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present, which provided the genesis of more than 50 hours of recorded conversations. The Lyrics will be released in paperback on November 7, 2023 with additional new chapters.
“Paul McCartney is one of the most groundbreaking, gifted artists of all time, and his songs have elevated and given meaning to so many moments in so many of our lives – so the chance to launch a podcast that tells the stories behind those songs … it’s a once-in-a-lifetime project,” said Conal Byrne, CEO of iHeartMedia Digital Audio Group. “‘McCartney: A Life in Lyrics’ will be a first-hand, first-of-its-kind account of his creative process – that has shaped and inspired multiple generations across the globe. We simply could not be more excited to partner with Sir McCartney, Paul Muldoon, executive producer Malcolm Gladwell and Pushkin Industries to bring these stories to listeners everywhere.”
New episodes of McCartney: A Life in Lyrics will be released weekly starting September 20, 2023 on iHeartRadio, Apple, Spotify, and wherever podcasts are available. Pushkin+ subscribers will be able to binge the entire season on the very first day. McCartney: A Life in Lyrics will be distributed by iHeartPodcasts.
ABOUT PAUL McCARTNEY
Born in Liverpool in 1942, Paul McCartney was raised in the city and educated at the Liverpool Institute. Since writing his first song at 14, McCartney has dreamed and dared to be different. He now lives in England.
Paul’s output has been impossibly prolific and singularly influential crossing many different genres. Paul changed the world forever with The Beatles before going on to continue to push boundaries and make music history with his group Wings and as a solo artist. His most recent solo (and 18th) studio album McCartney III secured the UK Album Chart’s festive Number 1 spot in 2020, furthering his lead as the UK’s most successful album act of all time.
In November 2021 Paul released his book, THE LYRICS: 1956 to the Present, recounting his life and art through the prism of 154 songs from all stages of his career – from his earliest boyhood compositions through the legendary decade of The Beatles, to Wings and his solo albums to the present. The LYRICS hit Number One on the New York Times Best Seller list, and was named the 2021 Book Of The Year by Barnes & Noble.
An 18-time Grammy winner and recipient of The Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement and Trustees Awards, McCartney’s list of international accolades reads like no other as well as being recognised for decades of philanthropic activities.
Equally renowned for his live performances as he is for his song-writing Paul set the world record for largest paying concert attendance – 184,000 people – in Rio De Janerio in 1990. A freeman of The City Of Liverpool and Lead Patron of The Liverpool Institute Of Performing Arts, Paul McCartney was appointed Fellow of The Royal College of Music in 1995 by The Prince Of Wales. In 1996 Paul McCartney was knighted by H.M. The Queen for his services to music, and in 2017 he was made a Companion Of Honor in the Queen’s Birthday Honors list.

Paul McCartney
Unprecedented Exhibition Offers Firsthand Look into The Height of Beatlemania
— More than 250 photographs from Paul McCartney’s personal archive will be on display—

The Chrysler Museum of Art will present Paul McCartney Photographs 1963-64: Eyes of the Storm from December 5, 2023 – April 7, 2024. Traveling from the National Portrait Gallery in London to Norfolk, the Chrysler Museum of Art will be the first venue in the United States to host this major exhibition, burnishing the Chrysler’s reputation as an institution committed to the presentation of the diverse histories of photography through exhibitions and the permanent collection.
Captured by McCartney using his own Pentax Camera, the exhibition features more than 250 photographs taken between November 1963 and February 1964, illuminating the period in which The Beatles became international superstars. The photographs were rediscovered in McCartney’s personal archive in 2020. McCartney describes this collection as “the eyes of the storm,” chronologically documenting the experiences of the band on their travels beginning in November 1963 at the height of Beatlemania and culminating with photographs taken in February 1964 during the final days of the band’s first triumphant trip to America. Most of these photographs have never been made into prints, existing as negatives and contact sheets for 60 years until now. The exhibition is accompanied by a best-selling book of the same name.
“What struck me about these images, beyond their obvious historical value, was McCartney’s sensitivity to his subjects,” said Erik Neil, Macon and Joan Brock Director of the Chrysler Museum of Art. “The empathy that is at the center of his music is equally evident in his photographs.”
With these photographs, visitors can witness the dawn of the “British Invasion” that fundamentally transformed Rock and Roll music and American society. The exhibition also captures McCartney’s interest in the visual arts, with his photos reflecting the aesthetic and culture of the moment. McCartney’s style was influenced by photographers he worked with who embraced ‘snapshot’ photography, leading him to develop a uniquely down-to-earth approach that was gritty and imperfect. They depict different environments McCartney and the Beatles experienced, such as driving through streets with screaming fans, as well as personal encounters with press photographers and individuals, among others.
“Looking at these photos now, decades after they were taken, I find there’s a sort of innocence about them,” said Paul McCartney. “Everything was new to us at this point. But I like to think I wouldn’t take them any differently today. They now bring back so many stories, a flood of special memories, which is one of the many reasons I love them all, and know that they will always fire my imagination.”
Chrysler Museum members will have the opportunity to participate in a special member event to commemorate the 60th Anniversary of The Beatles’ appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show in February 2024. Additional programming and details will be released this fall. The exhibition will be on view from December 5, 2023 – April 7, 2024. The Chrysler Museum of Art is free and open to the public Tuesday–Saturday, 10 am to 5 pm and Sunday, noon–5 pm.
This exhibition is supported by the Horace W. Goldsmith Special Exhibitions Endowment. Exhibition curated by Paul McCartney with Sarah Brown on behalf of MPL Communications Limited and Rosie Broadley for the National Portrait Gallery, London, and presented by the Chrysler Museum of Art.

Lightning strikes twice in multiple realms of the world of Ghost today, Friday July 7: With the release of their cover of Shakespears Sister’s 1992 Brit Award-winning single “Stay” (featuring Patrick Wilson), Sweden’s foremost theatrical rock purveyors not only mark their second outing scoring the grand finale of a major motion picture (the first being “Hunter’s Moon” in 2021’s Halloween Kills), but also their latest single to feature a once in a lifetime duet between Tobias Forge and a very special guest (following the release of “Spillways” featuring Joe Elliott of Def Leppard earlier this year).
As for exactly how Ghost’s “Stay (featuring Patrick Wilson)” came into being, the story begins with actor, director and Tony-nominated singer Wilson’s avowed Ghost fandom. Having seen the band live twice in 2022 alone, he met up with Forge while at work on his directorial debut, Insidious: The Red Door, and already contemplating ways to involve Ghost in the film. Additionally inspired by the Joe Elliott version of “Spillways” from Ghost’s international #1 album IMPERA (Loma Vista recordings), Wilson reached back out to Forge. As fate would have it, Forge had been working on a version of Shakespears Sister’s “Stay” — a #1 hit in 1992 in his native Sweden — and the rest is history: Wilson’s classically trained Broadway bona fides proved a perfect foil for Forge’s sweetly sinister performance, resulting in a stunning duet and the perfect haunting ballad to close Insidious: The Red Door.
Or to hear it told in Patrick Wilson’s own words:
“It was Joe Bishara, our Insidious composer and resident Lipstick Demon who first got me into Ghost about 10 years ago. Joe knew I liked metal… but he also knew I liked melody. What can I say? I’m a child of the ‘80s… when soaring voices and blazing guitars were played at every dance, every fast food parking lot, and every day in my house. Ghost had the right blend of metal, melody, and an unforgettable image. This coming from a guy who collected Kiss cards in the ’70s… so I know good rock branding and imagery when I see it!
Ghost, for me, is one of the most unique rock bands out there. Tobias’ sense of melody is only matched by his storytelling. The blistering imagery of him and the band is unlike any other. The balance of dark lyrics with soaring (and dare I say… angelic) melodies, make listening to them a different experience than any other band out there. At least that’s what it does for me.
So clearly, when I wanted a band that embodied the spirit of Insidious lore, I knew where to look first. ‘Stay’ is such a hauntingly beautiful tune to end my film with, because the dark lyrics juxtaposed against the sweeping melody (written by Dave Stewart) are a great bookend to my film. Singing on it, alongside Tobias, was an absolute thrill. I wanted the tune to feel like it was Josh Lambert (my character) singing… and then being tempted by the devil (the lipstick demon)… in this case, sung by the brilliant Tobias Forge. Tobias’ tone is a sharp contrast to mine, and his new arrangement of the song is faithful yet fresh. It was an honor to be featured on the tune, and I can’t thank Tobias and the Ghost crew, especially Tim Bickford and Kristen Mulderig, for making this happen.
Ghost is the perfect blend of theatricality met with musical mastery. Tobias is at the top of his game and I’m thrilled to have him on the soundtrack, and honored to sing alongside him.”
Ghost’s “Stay (featuring Patrick Wilson)” is available now across digital platforms. For further information including the dates of Ghost’s upcoming Re-Imperatour U.S.A., go to https://ghost-official.com/
BECK
“Thinking About You”/”Old Man”
Limited Color Vinyl 7”
To Be Released July 7
Available for Pre-Order Now at Beck.com & the Capitol Records Online Store
Beck invites you to celebrate the eve of his birthday with the gift of a physical release of two acclaimed performances previously available only as digital singles. Available for pre-order now at Beck.com and the Capitol Records Online Store, and in the singles bin at your favorite indie shop tomorrow, July 7, “Thinking About You”/”Old Man” (Capitol) will be issued as a limited edition golden-brown vinyl 7” single in a picture sleeve sporting the artwork for each song.
Originally released February of this year, “Thinking About You” was the first new original Beck song to be released since his GRAMMY-winning Hyperspace album. A sublime ballad in the tradition of classics Morning Phase and Sea Change—and incidentally recorded in the very same room as the latter—“Thinking About You” features Beck’s wistful vocal and acoustic guitar tones accompanied by Blake Mills (guitar, mandolin), Justin Meldal Johnsen (bass) and Roger Manning (keyboards). “Thinking About You” has been lauded by Consequence as “heart-wrenching” and SPIN as “beautifully sad,” while American Songwriter raved “The song is stripped bare to reveal Beck’s roots as the mellow, moody songsmith that made listeners fall in love with him in the 1990s.”
Beck’s cover of Neil Young’s “Old Man” was originally released as a digital single in September 2022. Described by Paste as “a faithful cover of an untouchable track… impressive” and accompanied by a moving performance video rendered in stark black and white, Beck’s version of “Old Man” went on to be nominated for Best Rock Performance at the 65th Annual GRAMMY Awards.

PAUL McCARTNEY
THE LYRICS: 1956 to the Present
OUT IN PAPERBACK NOVEMBER 7th
On November 7, 2023, a one-volume edition of THE LYRICS: 1956 to the Present will be published in paperback, featuring additional commentaries on iconic songs spanning Paul McCartney’s unparalleled musical career
The #1 New York Times bestselling book to be released in paperback with seven new song commentaries from our greatest living songwriter, including:
- Bluebird
- Day Tripper
- English Tea
- Every Night
- Hello Goodbye
- Magical Mystery Tour
- Step Inside Love
When THE LYRICS published in 2021 to worldwide acclaim, it was heralded as a one-of-a-kind self-portrait of McCartney, earning Book of the Year by Barnes & Noble and Waterstones, and winning a British Book Award. Critics revelled in “how deeply he is steeped in literary history and how much his output as a songwriter has in common with the works of the likes of Dickens and Shakespeare” (New York Times Book Review).
Finally in paperback, it further celebrates the breadth of that creative life and musical genius, covering sixty-six years through 161 songs—from early days in Liverpool, the global pop cultural domination of The Beatles, the ‘70s radio gold of Wings, and Paul’s prolific and still peaking solo career. A veritable road map to the way artists write and think about music, THE LYRICS “is like standing in a master chef’s kitchen as he prepares a dish, adding a dash of this and a spoonful of that and talking to us so winningly” (Washington Post).
Arranged alphabetically to provide a kaleidoscopic rather than chronological account, THE LYRICS establishes definitive texts of these songs for the first time and describes the circumstances in which they were written, the people and places that inspired them, and what Paul thinks of them now. Presented with this is a treasure trove of material from McCartney’s personal archive – drafts, letters, photographs – never seen before the 2021 publication, making this also a unique visual record of one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
The seven new song commentaries elaborate more on these themes, whether mulling over the romantic yearning in Vera Lynn’s “We’ll Meet Again” (Bluebird), the playful double entendres meant to trip up BBC censors (Day Tripper), the call and response power of a song (Every Night), the challenge and pleasure of writing for other performers (Step Inside Love), and the unlikely experience of serenading astronauts (English Tea). These first-person accounts give special context to lyrics beloved by generations of fans, and show how McCartney (and his contemporaries) were influenced as much by the musical Gigi as Bob Dylan’s Nashville Skyline, the carnival atmosphere of Blackpool as the polyrhythms of a Lagos recording studio.
With a personal foreword by McCartney and edited and introduced by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon, THE LYRICS is the definitive literary chronicle of one of musical history’s most enduring treasures.
Born in Liverpool in 1942, Paul McCartney was raised in the city and educated at the Liverpool Institute. In June 2023 he published a collection of his photography, 1964: Eyes of the Storm, in conjunction with an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London. Since writing his first song at 14, McCartney has dreamed and dared to be different. He lives in England.
Paul Muldoon is the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of fourteen full-length collections of poetry, including the recent collection Howdie-Skelp.
“More often than I can count, I’ve been asked if I would write an autobiography, but the time has never been right. The one thing I’ve always managed to do, whether at home or on the road, is to write new songs. I know that some people, when they get to a certain age, like to go to a diary to recall day-to-day events from the past, but I have no such notebooks. What I do have are my songs, hundreds of them, which I’ve learned serve much the same purpose. And these songs span my entire life” – Paul McCartney, The Lyrics
“Based on conversations I had with Paul McCartney over a five year period, these commentaries are as close to an autobiography as we may ever come. His insights into his own artistic process confirm a notion at which we had but guessed — that Paul McCartney is a major literary figure who draws upon, and extends, the long tradition of poetry in English” – Paul Muldoon

WATCH ALBUM TEASER HERE
With just over a week to go until blur take the stage for two unmissable shows at Wembley Stadium, the band today dropped “St. Charles Square”, the latest track to be released from their highly-anticipated brand new album The Ballad of Darren, out July 21st on Parlophone / Warner.
“I fucked up, I’m not the first to do it.” – St. Charles Square
The opening line of “St. Charles Square” is already firmly established as a crowd favorite, with audiences enthusiastically roaring along with Damon Albarn as the band blaze their new songs across Europe this summer. The song’s chorus recalls the discordant art-pop swagger of earlier work and sees Albarn queasily exclaim “cause there’s something down here, and it’s living under the floorboards” encircled by backing vocals that compound the sense of encroaching peril and a quintessentially marauding guitar turn from Graham Coxon.
Damon Albarn said of the track – “St. Charles Square is a place where the ghosts of monsters can be found.”
Eight years since their chart-topping album The Magic Whip (2015), blur made a surprise return 6 weeks ago with the release of “The Narcissist”, racking up over 10m global streams – and counting – with a song which The Guardian (4/5 stars) describes as sounding like “…Blur have never been away”. Blur were most definitely back the moment Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James and Dave Rowntree burst onto the stage for an electric live return at their first warm-up and first-ever show at Colchester Arts Centre in Essex on May 19th. With further shows in Eastbourne, Wolverhampton and Newcastle and now on the road in Europe, blur will have already performed their iconic and much-loved songs – along with new tracks “The Narcissist’”and “St. Charles Square” – to more than 2 million ecstatic fans across Europe by the time they take stage for their first-ever Wembley Stadium shows in London in just over a week.
The band will welcome old friend and special guest Phil Daniels for a very special guest appearance on both nights at Wembley Stadium, with Sleaford Mods joining the line-up for the sold-out Saturday July 8th along with critically acclaimed English singer-songwriter and Mercury Prize nominee Self Esteem and London-based electro-pop duo Jockstrap. Sunday July 9th will see Paul Weller and The Selecter open for blur, with DJs Steve Davis and John Doran & Kavus Torabi also set to entertain the crowds at what promises to be two unmissable summer nights in the capital.
The band’s headline show on Saturday July 8th at Wembley Stadium sold out in minutes, with a second and final show added for Sunday July 9th. Last remaining tickets available via Ticketmaster.

BECK & PHOENIX
“ODYSSEY”
COLLABORATIVE SINGLE OUT NOW
Summer Odyssey Co-Headline Tour Begins August 1st at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena
“Somewhere
We’ll fall into the ocean
I’ll be there
On an odyssey in the sun…”
Modern music’s consummate chameleon Beck and Versailles’ foremost musical ambassadors Phoenix have teamed up to create an utterly infectious summer anthem in “Odyssey,” a landmark collaboration out today via Capitol Records.
Three minutes and 47 seconds of sheer audio bliss, “Odyssey” is written, produced and performed by Beck and Phoenix, and mixed by Serban Ghenea. Beck and Thomas Mars nimbly trade lead vocals on the song’s verses, with the full cast joining to create the irresistible earworms of its choruses and each “Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah” singalong refrain. The result is two unmistakable sonic signatures combining to create something beyond the sum of its parts.
To join Beck and Phoenix on their shared “Odyssey,” go to: http://beck.to/odyssey
“Odyssey” is the spontaneous and perfect theme song for Beck and Phoenix’s eagerly anticipated co-headline Summer Odyssey tour. Produced by Live Nation, the 19-city run kicks off on Tuesday, August 1st in Seattle at Climate Pledge Arena, with stops including the Kia Forum in Los Angeles and both artists’ headlining return to New York’s Madison Square Garden, before wrapping up September 10th in Columbia, MD at Merriweather Post Pavilion. The tour will feature an array of support artists described by Beck and Mars as a “class of ’23” lineup, featuring Japanese Breakfast, Jenny Lewis, and Weyes Blood on select dates with Sir Chloe.

The Postal Service’s Everything Will Change
Live Album 2xLP + CD Available on September 8th from Sub Pop
“Such Great Heights” Certified as Platinum Digital Single
“The Postal Service was a band for a generation – the soundtrack to romance, tears and friendship.” – NPR
“The idea that music — big, larger than life music — can start in a bedroom and grow into a force that can move a field of 80,000 devout music fans made me want to weep for joy… the world will be singing along with the Postal Service for the summer.” –LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Everyone at Barclays Center shared something intimate and close to the heart. We collectively let each other in on a little secret we’ve kept hidden in car stereos, mixtapes, and iPods for the last ten years. To be able to do that with 18,000 people simultaneously is something altogether astounding.” –CONSEQUENCE
“This was a collective walk down a lane of scattered and respective memories, and a collective teenage dream come-to-life, watching Jenny Lewis and Ben Gibbard — two arbiters of deeply emotional music from the early-to-mid-aughts — perform together on such an enormous stage.” –STEREOGUM
Before embarking on their long awaited tour celebrating the 20th anniversary tour of their timeless Give Up, The Postal Service reflect on the album’s rapturously received 10th anniversary tour via Everything Will Change–a 16-track live set documenting that 2013 trek with live versions of Postal Service classics including the platinum-certified single “Such Great Heights,” “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight,” “Sleeping In,” “Natural Anthem,” and more, all performed live at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA. Everything Will Change will be available on 2xLP + CD on September 8th, 2023, through Sub Pop.
Relive that unforgettable night by watching live performances of “The District Sleeps Alone Tonight” and “Natural Anthem” now.
The physical release of Everything Will Change will coincide with the kickoff of the first live Postal Service dates in a decade. Hailed as one of the ‘Most Anticipated Tours of 2023,’ The Postal Service will join forces with Death Cab for Cutie who are celebrating the 20th Anniversary of their seminal album, Transatlanticism. The six-week tour is playing stages across North America, including two nights at Madison Square Garden and three nights at the Hollywood Bowl. For complete details and ticket information, please visit postalservicemusic.net or www.deathcabforcutie.com.
Everything Will Change was also released in 2014 as a feature-length documentary concert film directed by Justin Mitchell, featuring intimate interviews and backstage footage of the band. The Everything Will Change film and Give Up are available through Sub Pop.Born of a long-distance collaboration between Benjamin Gibbard (of Death Cab for Cutie) and Jimmy Tamborello (from Dntel), with Rilo Kiley’s Jenny Lewis, The Postal Service released Give Up, their one and only album, in 2003. That record went on to sell over a million copies, becoming a milestone for generations of fans, many of whom never had the chance to see the band live. In 2013 in commemoration of the 10-year anniversary of Give Up, Sub Pop released an expanded, deluxe version of that album, and the band reunited to tour the world.

THE SMILE RELEASE NEW SINGLE “BENDING HECTIC”
OUT NOW VIA XL RECORDINGS
NORTH AMERICAN TOUR KICKS OFF TOMORROW WITH FIRST EVER SHOW IN MEXICO CITY
The Smile – Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood and Tom Skinner – today release a brand new single, “Bending Hectic”. Listen HERE
Produced by Sam Petts-Davies and with strings by the London Contemporary Orchestra, the standalone single was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London earlier this year. It was first debuted by The Smile during their Montreux Jazz Festival appearance in 2022 and, while not included on the subsequent live album The Smile (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival, July 2022), it became a word-of-mouth phenomenon, with fans and critics calling for its release. After a year of waiting, “Bending Hectic” gets a global digital release today via XL Recordings.
The single marks The Smile’s first piece of new music in 2023. It follows the band’s acclaimed 2022 debut album, A Light For Attracting Attention which was named amongst the Best Albums of 2022 by Pitchfork, Uncut, MOJO, Rough Trade, Billboard, New York Times, Consequence and many more.
Tomorrow, the band embark on an extensive tour of North America. Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, and Tom Skinner will kick off the 16-date excursion on Wednesday June 21st with their first-ever performance in Mexico City. After two nights, they will then go on to the United States and Canada, marking The Smile’s debut live performances in every city they play — with the exception of New York where they’ll return to headline Forest Hills Stadium on July 7th. For more information or to buy tickets, head to www.thesmiletheband.com. Following the tour, the band will return to the studio to continue working on new material.

“Direct and hard-rocking…Homme’s songwriting has grown increasingly personal and vulnerable. Never more so than now.” –REVOLVER
Queens of the Stone Age continue “Giving fans something to look forward to” (UPROXX) with the final advance offering from In Times New Roman… ahead of its highly anticipated eighth album out this Friday, June 16th on Matador Records. This pre-release gift comes in the form of “Paper Machete,” an instantly identifiable QOTSA future classic, sure to resound with casual fans and die hards alike. Lyrically, “Paper Machete” finds Josh Homme’s trademark rapier wit at its most acerbic. If the previously released “Carnavoyeur” signaled resignation and acceptance, “Paper Machete” is the collision of sheer, raw force that gets you there– “like electricity conveyed through the bristles of a paintbrush” (WALL STREET JOURNAL).
“Thematically, ‘Carnavoyeur’ seems to reckon with life’s natural ebbs and flows, finding power in accepting the things that can’t be changed: ‘When there’s nothing I can do, I smile,’ vocalist Josh Homme sings in a darkly sweet croon, sounding equal parts sinister and restrained as he watches the world around him turn to dust,” says CONSEQUENCE, an apt description of the song as much as it is for the just-released Liam Lynch-created/directed video.
