THE EXECUTION OF ALL THINGS (FROZEN LAKE EDITION) REISSUE OUT APRIL 25th VIA SADDLE CREEK; PRE-ORDER NOW

Following the confirmation of their Just Like Heaven Festival appearance, Rilo Kiley has announced a run of headlining North American dates and festival performances that will include stops across the western half of the U.S. and Canada.
The band is thrilled to confirm that the May 14th date at Red Rocks Amphitheatre will include special guests Julien Baker and TORRES; support for other dates to be announced. Tickets for the May leg of shows go on sale February 7th and will be available for purchase at https://www.rilokiley.com/.
“It’s going to be wonderful for us, like going back to the purest version of yourself, that early ’20s place where everything is possible,” says Lewis. “You’re in a van and Jason’s got the map, Pierre is behind the wheel, and I’m on the shitty acoustic guitar on the bench seat working out a new song with Blake. I don’t think it’s ever been as good as that, when it was just us against the world.”
Alongside the highly anticipated touring news, Rilo Kiley has also revealed that they will be releasing a special reissue of their landmark album The Execution of All Things. Arriving April 25th via Saddle Creek, The Execution of All Things (Frozen Lake Edition) will be available in three configurations––a deluxe LP ( cloudy transparent and cream vinyl) + bonus limited edition 7-inch (transparent vinyl), LP (cloudy clear vinyl) and CD:
The Execution of All Things (Frozen Lake Edition) Deluxe LP + 7″
The Execution of All Things (Frozen Lake Edition) LP
The Execution of All Things (Frozen Lake Edition) CD
Pre-orders are available now: https://rilokiley.lnk.to/Execution
“Rilo Kiley cemented themselves in indie rock history upon The Execution of All Things’ arrival—it was immediately seen as a remarkable next step for the band’s sonic palette and ability to wring poignancy from vulnerability…the album’s continued reverberation in a new generation of contemporary artists and listeners is arguably just as significant a part of its legacy.” –– PASTE
“…the most interconnected of Rilo Kiley’s albums. All the songs feel like they’re in conversation with one another — each of them devastatingly sad and exceedingly invigorating at the same time…For as emotionally raw as Rilo Kiley’s songs can be, if there’s one thing to be taken away from The Execution Of All Things, it’s perseverance. The songs sound joyous, in spite and because of all the self-doubt and anxieties that are twisted up in them. They are, at the end of the day, hopelessly optimistic.” –– STEREOGUM
“…a dynamic album with intriguing lyrics, a country/folk shimmer, and explosive pop moments.” –– PITCHFORK

See below for all currently confirmed North American dates and stay tuned…

Wings
Venus and Mars 50th Anniversary Edition
Album Due For Release March 21, 2025
Pre-Order Here

MPL and UMe commemorate the 50th anniversary of Wings’ fourth studio album, Venus and Mars half-speed master edition, out on March 21, 2025. Pre-order here.
One of the world’s most beloved rock outfits, Wings came to define the era of 1970s arena rock while dominating the airwaves with no fewer than 14 US Top 10 hits and 12 Top 10 hits in the UK. Following their 1973 masterpiece Band on the Run, Venus and Mars would represent another peak of Wings’ creative and commercial heyday. The band’s fourth studio album was released on May 27, 1975, ahead of the legendary Wings Over the World tour. Preceded by the US Number One single “Listen To What The Man Said” and featuring “Letting Go,” a fan favorite in Paul’s live set to this day, Venus and Mars hit Number One in the album charts on both sides of the Atlantic and went on to sell over 4 million copies worldwide.
This special 50th-anniversary vinyl edition was cut at half speed using a high-resolution transfer of the original master tapes from 1975 by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios. The album is presented as a meticulous reproduction of the original UK pressing, with recreations of the original “Venus and Mars are alright tonight” circular sticker and “comparative sizes of sun and planets” bookmark sticker and comes with two posters with photography by Aubrey Powell and Sylvia de Swaan. The iconic album artwork by Hipgnosis has been meticulously recreated and presented in a gatefold sleeve.
Venus and Mars will also be available in Dolby Atmos for the first time, newly mixed by Giles Martin and Steve Orchard.
Less than one year after Band on the Run’s release, the first recording sessions for Venus and Mars took place in November 1974 and featured a revamped Wings line-up. Following the departure of Denny Seiwell and Henry McCullough on the eve of the Band on the Run sessions in Lagos, Paul, Linda McCartney, and Denny Laine were now joined by guitarist Jimmy McCulloch and drummer Geoff Britton. After recording “Letting Go,” “Medicine Jar,” and “Love In Song” at Abbey Road Studios, Wings left London for New Orleans’ Sea Saint Studios, facing another unexpected line-up shift with Geoff Britton’s exit, recruiting Joe English to complete the album.
In tandem with Venus and Mars topping the charts worldwide, the album’s predecessor, Band on the Run, continued building its global multi-platinum popularity. With a powerful new line-up solidified, Wings’ response to the overwhelming demand surrounding them was to launch the Wings Over the World tour — a 65-date run of shows starting in 1975 and stretching into October 1976.
The first Wings release for 2025, Venus and Mars follows 2024’s theatrical release of the rare Wings live-in-studio performance film One Hand Clapping and its accompanying album landing in the Best of 2024 lists of Billboard, Uproxx and the Los Angeles Times, as well as last year’s 50th-anniversary edition of Band on the Run. More exciting celebratory Wings’ activities and announcements are soon set to follow.

Metallica’s All Within My Hands Foundation Donates $500,000 to Los Angeles Fire Relief
The fires raging in the Los Angeles area have relentlessly wreaked havoc and widespread destruction since January 7 and, sadly, do not show signs of slowing down. Despite containment progress over the weekend, officials warn residents to stay vigilant as the Santa Ana winds return and are expected to reach up to 70 MPH over the coming days, creating critical fire conditions. In the past week, the community has suffered at least 24 lives lost, nearly 100,000 people under evacuation orders, 40,000 acres burned, and more than 12,000 structures—commercial and residential—destroyed. However, numbers cannot articulate the magnitude of anguish as the disaster upends families and dismantles livelihoods.
Metallica’s foundation, All Within My Hands, is granting $500,000 to relief efforts carried out by the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund and the Pasadena Community Foundation’s Eaton Canyon Fire Relief and Recovery Fund.
The California Community Foundation (CCF) has a long history of ensuring resources reach those most in need. It leverages partnerships with community-based organizations and government agencies while using data from CalFire and the CDC’s Social Vulnerability Index to prioritize underserved communities. For the LA County wildfires, CCF has activated its Wildfire Recovery Fund to complement immediate relief and address the long-term recovery needs of neighborhoods. The fund’s disaster and recovery efforts support an array of critical recovery services, including housing, case management, mental health, and medical care for displaced residents. It also aids in rebuilding essential infrastructure like emergency communication systems and offers financial disaster assistance, labor law education, and immigration services to low-wage workers and immigrant families. AWMH is donating $250,000 to the California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Recovery Fund.

The Pasadena Community Foundation (PCF) has established the Eaton Canyon Fire Relief and Recovery Fund. A smaller agency, PCF is entrenched within the community, poised to leverage connections with civic and nonprofit leaders to ensure its aid reaches those who need it most. The fund will support immediate needs during relief efforts as the fires continue to spread. It will also support critical long-term recovery efforts after the fires are extinguished and the community embarks upon the seemingly impossible task of rebuilding what has been demolished. AWMH is donating $250,000 to the Pasadena Community Foundation’s Eaton Canyon Fire Relief and Recovery Fund.

NASTY LITTLE MAN: BEST OF 2024
As the year winds down and the holidays swiftly approach, nasty little man is here to refresh your memory on some of 2024’s best releases and tours…time to sit back and pour your favorite beverage (might we suggest a Blackened neat?) and reflect on the best of the best of 2024!
But before we do, we’d like to look back at the incredible whirlwind years Vampire Weekend and St. Vincent had.
Expanding an unmatched streak of critical and commercial successes, Vampire Weekend’s 5th album, Only God Was Above Us, released on April 5th via Columbia Records was met with unanimous rave reviews across the globe:
“Vampire Weekend has never made a bad album, but ‘Only God Was Above Us’ is one of its best.” –– THE NEW YORKER
“…Vampire Weekend isn’t getting older, it’s getting better, and ‘Only God…’ is one of the group’s best” –– VARIETY
“Masterful” –– PITCHFORK, Best New Music, “Best Albums of the Year So Far”
“One of the defining albums of early 2024.” –– BILLBOARD, “Best Albums of the Year So Far”
“…an album full of startling changes and wild sonic upheavals, all packed into 10 songs.” –– THE NEW YORK TIMES
The OGWAU tour launched on April 8th in Austin, TX under an eclipsed sky—a transcendent performance that the Austin American Statesman called “remarkable,” The Austin Chronicle called “pummeling” the Austin Monthly called “Unforgettable” and Variety hailed as “awe-inspiring.”
From there the band went on to grace stages everywhere from a surprise set at Coachella, sold out shows at the Hollywood Bowl and Red Rocks, as well as amphitheater and arena stops across the country highlighted by a two show stand at the famed Madison Square Garden, selling out both shows with attendance totaling 36,000 tickets. Throughout the tour a few special guests surprised fans including Paris Hilton, Tim Robinson and Heather Gay (Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.)
Along the way, Ezra Koenig, Chris Baio and Chris Tomson performed on The Daily Show, Saturday Night Live, and The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. Koenig also appeared alongside his pals, Phoenix, at the 2024 Summer Olympics closing ceremony in Paris and made friends with Conan O’Brien and Rick Rubin.
St. Vincent released her highly anticipated seventh album All Born Screaming on April 26th via Total Pleasure Records in partnership with Virgin Music Group. Her first entirely self-produced effort was brought to life with the aid of a highly curated dream lineup of friends–– Rachel Eckroth, Josh Freese, Dave Grohl, Mark Guiliana, Cate Le Bon, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Stella Mogzawa and David Ralicke. The album’s release was met with rapturous critical praise including:
“A work of art…thrilling” –– BILLBOARD
“Singular…uncompromisingly countercultural.” –– THE NEW YORK TIMES
“A pure, bold presentation of St. Vincent…exultant and defiant.”–– STEREOGUM
“Angry, aggressive, raw, urgent, and yet also sensual, and down to have a good time. One of her best yet.”– VOGUE
“Primal…thrilling…satisfyingly urgent” –– ROLLING STONE
“Genius” –– WHO WHAT WEAR
“Visceral and surreal…simultaneously a return to form and a bold departure” –– AV CLUB
“Excellent…a delicate dance between complete control and self-immolation.” –– ASSOCIATED PRESS
“Cathartic, compelling and propulsive, it’s a fully felt masterwork.” –– KXT
In addition to speaking with Terry Gross for Fresh Air, St. Vincent graced the cover of Billboard’s digital June Pride issue, spoke with Architectural Digest about the stunning visuals of All Born Screaming and made her Criterion Collection Closet Picks debut.
Dripping in “rock-star irreverence” (Slant) and treating fans to “a devilishly good time” (Uproxx), St. Vincent dominated stages on her All Born Screaming tour, which included powerhouse performances at LA’s Greek and two sold out nights at Brooklyn Paramount. Delivering one kinetic rock masterclass after the other, St. Vincent’s tour proved to be “as glorious an experience as you’d expect…it’s hard to imagine a much more high-spirited show…she might actually have made everyone feel a little bit born again.” (Variety)
St. Vincent will close out 2024 on an even higher note with All Born Screaming, having just earned four GRAMMY nominations for Best Rock Performance, Best Rock Song, Best Alternative Music Performance and Best Alternative Music Album, as well as cracking the top 20 of Metacritic’s Best Albums of the Year.

ST. VINCENT RELEASES NEW SINGLE “EL MERO CERO”
Listen To “El Mero Cero”; Final Single in Advance of Todos Nacen Gritando Album Release This Friday
St. Vincent to Perform at Mexico City’s Legendary Corona Capital Festival this Weekend; New 2025 Tour Dates Announced Including Shows with Olivia Rodrigo
Career-High Four Nominations for 67th Annual GRAMMY Awards
St. Vincent has released the new single “El Mero Cero,” a Spanish language version of her song “Big Time Nothing.” It is the final single to preview the upcoming album Todos Nacen Gritando ahead of its release this Friday.
Todos Nacen Gritando is the result of Annie Clark a/k/a St. Vincent’s ambitious decision to re-record every vocal track on her Grammy-nominated All Born Screaming album translated into Spanish. The echoes of tens of thousands of fans chanting her lyrics across Latin America and Spain moved Clark to pay tribute to her Spanish-speaking fans and the Spanish language she loves so much. “It was really inspiring,” she says, recalling experiences like the crowd reaction to her set at Primavera Sound 2023. “At the end, I asked myself, ‘If they’re able to sing in a second or third language, why can’t I do the same thing?”
That is how Todos Nacen Gritando’was born. Clark defines this meticulous reinterpretation as one of the biggest challenges of her musical career: “It’s been a much more complicated process than anything I’ve done before.”
No small statement for an artist whose accomplishments and accolades include 3 Grammy awards (“Best Rock Song” in 2019 and “Best Alternative Music Album” in 2015 and 2022) — a tally that may wind up doubling (or more) with this year’s career-high 4 nominations — collaborations with artists from Taylor Swift to David Byrne, fronting Nirvana for their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, contributing to Paul McCartney‘s III-Imagined album and playing live with Metallica—and a just-announced pair of shows supporting Olivia Rodrigo in Mexico City and Curitiba, Brazil (Tickets for these newly unveiled dates will be on sale beginning November 12. For further information, go to ilovestvincent.com.)
The stark nature of the album —her first fully self-produced record— found in Spanish a way to enhance its visceral original vocal performances. “There are things that I sing in Spanish that maybe I would feel self-conscious singing in English because they feel so sincere… it was a fascinating experience to find how to convey the feeling, but also discover a new way through words,” she explains.
