The long delayed Queen biopic, now titled Bohemian Rhapsody, is finally back on track. Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor are on board as the film’s executive producers and musical supervisors, personally choosing Bryan Singer (X-Men franchise, Apt Pupil) to direct the film due to his “extraordinary imagination and style.” Now, we finally have the first…
Back in March, Philadelphia’s Kurt Vile and Australia’s off-kilter songbird Courtney Barnett announced a joint album that might make the head, brain and minds of indie-rock lovers explode Scanners style. Details have emerged and the dry-humored duo’s collaboration, now titled Lotta Sea Lice, will debut in October via Matador Records, Marathon Artists, and Milk! Records. Vile described what…
Broken Lizard’s Super Troopers 2 is finally seeing the light. This teaser trailer was just released ahead of the long-awaited sequel that will hit theaters on 4/20 (because clearly, they know their audience).

Pantera, Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots and even Megadeth were having memorable years with huge releases, but the third wave of ska, popularized in Orange…
Beck is (almost) back! The last time Beck was in the news, Prince was handing him an award for Album of the Year and Kanye West was showing the world what a douchebag he was. Oh, 2015. At the time of his win, the genre-bending artist was already two years into work on his next…
