Thrash and death metal band Butt Splitters have released an official lyric video for their latest single “Flowers of the Wind”, taken from their 2024 album ‘Nibelvirch’. The video is now available on YouTube, offering fans an immersive experience that pairs the band’s aggressive sound with striking visual storytelling.
“Flowers of the Wind” captures the raw energy and emotional intensity that define Butt Splitters’ approach. Pounding riffs, relentless drumming and growling vocals anchor the track as it explores themes of impermanence, freedom and the fleeting nature of life. The video transforms the song’s lyrics into a vivid audiovisual journey, allowing fans to connect with every word while headbanging along to the crushing rhythms.
Hailing from Italy, Butt Splitters have been making waves in the metal underground with a ferocious blend of thrash, death and groove metal. Known for their uncompromising sound, thought-provoking lyrics and high-energy live performances, the band continues to push boundaries and deliver music that hits hard both sonically and emotionally.
Bruce Hornsby will release his new studio album ‘Indigo Park’ on April 3, the three-time Grammy winner announced Wednesday. The 10-track record brings together an impressive roster of collaborators including the late Bob Weir and Robert Hunter, alongside Blake Mills, Bonnie Raitt, Chris Dave, Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig and Pino Palladino. Hornsby and his longtime band The Noisemakers anchor the project.
The material represents a shift toward more personal songwriting, with Hornsby singing in first person more than he has in recent years. Two tracks bear co-writing credits from late Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter. Hornsby describes the album as reflective, calling himself an old bastard looking back, though he says he’s found a graceful path forward with help from new friends.
The release arrives during the 40th anniversary year of Hornsby’s biggest hit “The Way It Is”, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 1986 and has been sampled extensively in hip-hop, notably by Tupac Shakur. Hornsby and The Noisemakers have mapped out extensive touring plans supporting the album, including orchestral performances with the Colorado Symphony and festival appearances at New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and High Water Music Festival.

Little Feat has announced The Last Farewell Tour, their intention to retire the band’s trusty bus and stop touring, although they will definitely not stop playing. The legendary rock band debuts a beautiful new video of “Long Distance Love”, a Little Feat classic re-recorded with Amy Helm during the pandemic, today at Relix.com. This new version of the song will be available on all digital outlets Thursday, February 5.
Reworking “Long Distance Love” was a powerful experience for a band then newly welcoming Scott Sharrard and Tony Leone. Scott commented, “The track is a testament to resiliency in the face of adversity, and a tribute to the band’s legacy, and our incredible musical community of fans and musical collaborators. Amy Helm has been a good friend to us all for many years, and singing this track with her was like a family reunion that really added the special sauce to this reinterpretation.”
Director Jesse Lauter, known for Learning to Live Together: The Return of Mad Dogs and Englishmen, has spent the last several years crafting an amazing new film, ‘Little Feat: The Documentary’. The film draws together rare and never-before-seen archival footage and new interviews with Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello, Michael McDonald, and members of the Grateful Dead, The Doobie Brothers and Phish. Narrated by Jeff Bridges, ‘Little Feat: The Documentary’ will have its world premiere at the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival on Saturday, February 21 at the Wilma Theatre in Missoula, Montana.

Art Of Melody Music and Burning Minds Music Group have announced “Can You Feel Me?”, the second single from the self-titled debut album by Firesky. The song and music video are now available online for streaming. “Can You Feel Me?” features Davide “Dave Rox” Barbieri from Wheels Of Fire, Shining Line and Room Experience as a special guest on backing vocals.
The band describes the video as a visual exploration of the boundary between real memory and controlled dream. The protagonist relives a love story through perfect postcards, including sunset kisses, drives in a convertible and dances under the lights, alternated with raw fragments of reality like silence, rain and solitude. Like in Vanilla Sky and Sliding Doors, he tries to repaint the past, but the signs of breakage reveal the truth, leaving only the burning pain of an irretrievable loss. The ending, with a deserted skating rink, a wilted rose and synchronized gazes under the rain, conveys melancholy. The dream fades away, leaving only an echo of once-cherished feelings.
Mixed and mastered by Saal Richmond at Harmonia Recording Work Studio in Giaveno, Italy, the album arrives March 13. The CD booklet includes exclusive liner notes penned by Fabio Vellata from Truemetal.it. Alessandro Del Vecchio from Edge Of Forever, Hardline, Jorn and Vanden Plas provides additional backing vocals. Pierpaolo “Zorro” Monti from Shining Line, Charming Grace and Raintimes and Dave Zublena from Soul Seller and Kastadian also co-wrote the song “Like Brothers”.
Alt-pop duo Daisy Grenade have released their electrifying rendition of No Doubt’s chart-topping classic “Hella Good”, available everywhere via DCD2/Fueled By Ramen. A portion of all proceeds from the release will benefit the Center for Reproductive Rights, a legal advocacy organization dedicated to protecting bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom.
“Our heavy cover of the early 2000s No Doubt banger ‘Hella Good’ delivers on every level,” shares the duo. “Every time you hear this song, it begs for heavy guitars, so we gave it to you! This cover comes at the perfect time, we’re all looking for a bit of that early aughts nostalgia through a fresh new lens. Additionally, we’re donating a portion of the proceeds from this release to the Center For Reproductive Rights, because it’s important.” The duo will continue their philanthropic efforts throughout their debut headline run, Daisy Grenade Has So Much To Say (The Tour), which gets underway May 19 at Thunderbird Café & Music Hall in Pittsburgh. One dollar from every ticket sold will benefit the Let’s Give A Damn Foundation, an organization that empowers young creatives globally to use their platforms for advocacy.
“Hella Good” marks the latest in a seemingly non-stop hot streak of singles from Daisy Grenade, including their reimagined take on the Wicked classic “For Good”. The song made its debut late last year during Daisy Grenade Does Whatever the F*ck They Want, a sold-out holiday spectacular at New York City’s Joe’s Pub that saw the duo joined by very special guests Adam Kantor, Cassadee Pope and Katerina McCrimmon. Last autumn saw the release of the emotionally charged “Good Luck (Wish You Hell)”, produced by two-time GRAMMY Award nominee WZRD BLD. The evocative power ballad was preceded by the infectious summer anthem “Don’t Sweat It”, produced by Andrew Goldstein and named by Rolling Stone as one of its Songs You Need To Know. The duo will bring their infectious energy to historic stages like the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles and a now sold-out Bowery Ballroom show in New York, with support on all dates from Vienna Vienna.

Charlotte Sands has revealed her new single “back to you”, the final preview of her sophomore album ‘Satellite’, arriving March 6. The track follows recent singles “Afterlife”, “neckdeep”, “HUSH” and “one eye open”, all of which appear on the upcoming album. Charlotte strikes a powerful balance between angsty intensity and poetic vulnerability on the song, which begins as a delicate, introspective slow burn before building into a cathartic, emotionally charged chorus.
“‘back to you’ came from realizing how easy it is to lose yourself in someone else’s orbit,” she shares. “It’s about recognizing the pattern for what it is, and how every choice, every excuse, and every ‘what if’ leads you back to the same place. It’s the loop you fall into when you ignore your intuition and mistake warning signs for butterflies.” With her bright blue hair, Y2K-inspired style and boundary-pushing sound, Charlotte Sands has cemented herself as an alt-pop artist to watch. On ‘Satellite’, the Los Angeles-based artist pushes her vision further than ever, channeling her genre-blurring instincts and fearless vulnerability into a body of work that feels both deeply personal and arena-ready.
Since making her debut in 2018, Charlotte has charted in the U.S. Top 40 for more than 15 weeks, won Best Breakthrough Album at the Heavy Music Awards, and amassed over 300 million global streams as a fully independent artist. Her rise has been fueled by relentless touring and unforgettable performances, sharing stages with My Chemical Romance, 5 Seconds of Summer and YUNGBLUD. In 2024, she embarked on a highly successful global headline tour in support of her album ‘can we start over?’. Looking ahead, Charlotte will bring her electrifying live show to European audiences in 2026 as a support act on Simple Plan’s tour, marking a major milestone in her international rise.

Ketchup Entertainment has acquired domestic distribution rights to the feature film “Rolling Loud,” produced by Live Nation Studios and American High in collaboration with the globally influential hip-hop festival brand Rolling Loud. Written and directed by Jeremy Garelick, the film is set for a nationwide theatrical release on September 18 in over 2,000 theaters.
An audacious comedy set against the backdrop of the World’s Largest Hip-Hop Festival, Rolling Loud, blends music, humor and festival-scale spectacle, drawing directly from Live Nation Studios’ access to artists, live events, and contemporary music culture.
The film stars Owen Wilson and Matt Rife with appearances from major figures in modern hip-hop, including Ty Dolla $ign, Sexyy Red and Ski Mask The Slump God. Christine Ko, Christian Convery, Jolene and Henry Winkler round out the legendary cast. Set within the high-energy ecosystem of Rolling Loud, the film captures the collisions between artists, fans and fun that define festival culture today.
“Rolling Loud is a bold, unapologetic comedy with real cultural credibility,” said Gareth West, CEO of Ketchup Entertainment. “Live Nation Studios brings unmatched access and authenticity to the project, and we see this as a true event-driven theatrical release that connects music culture and cinema.”
“Live music and festivals are one of the most powerful cultural engines of our time — creating connection, energy and memories,” said Ryan Kroft, Head of Film & TV, Live Nation Studios. “With Rolling Loud, Live Nation Studios brings that live-music pulse- infused with comedy- off the stage and into cinemas. We’re happy to partner with Ketchup Entertainment to share this story with audiences across the nation.”
“Hip-hop has always driven culture forward, and Rolling Loud was built to reflect that energy on the ground,” said Matt Zingler, Co-Founder of Rolling Loud. “This film is a celebration of the community, creativity, and unpredictability that defines the festival experience. Seeing it come to life on the big screen with partners like Live Nation Studios, American High and Ketchup Entertainment is a full-circle moment for the brand.”
“Rolling Loud was sparked by a chaotic real-life moment when I briefly lost my son at a music festival – an experience that was filled with anxiety, fear, and absurdity. This became a great party story and now a fun, ridiculous comedy that we’re incredibly excited to bring to theater audiences with our partners at Live Nation Studios and Ketchup Entertainment,” said Garelick, known for his work on The Break-Up, The Hangover, The Wedding Ringer, Murder Mystery 2, and over twenty American High productions.
Executive Producers include Ryan Kroft and Michael Rapino for Live Nation Studios, Pasquale Rotella of Insomniac and Matt Zingler of Rolling Loud; producers include Jeremy Garelick and Will Phelps for American High, as well as Doug Banker and Stella Bulochnikov. Matt Rife and Christina Shams are also Executive Producers. Casting executives are Mary Vernieu and Findley Davidson for Betty Mae, Inc.
Rolling Loud has grown into the largest hip-hop festival brand globally, hosting sold-out events across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, while generating billions of impressions annually across live attendance, streaming, and social platforms. Through Live Nation Studios, the brand continues expanding into premium film and television storytelling.
The acquisition further reinforces Ketchup Entertainment’s strategy of backing culturally relevant, audience-forward theatrical releases, particularly those that resonate with younger, music-driven audiences.
Rolling Loud opens in theaters nationwide September 18.
Super Bowl LX will be remembered not just for football, but for a cultural milestone in music and representation. Bad Bunny — born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio — is set to headline the halftime show on February 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, broadcast live across NBC, Telemundo, Peacock, and NFL+ as part of the biggest TV moment of the year.
1. Puerto Rico to Worldwide Stage
Bad Bunny grew up in Bayamón and Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, where he worked in a supermarket and wrote songs before being discovered on SoundCloud in 2016. Rising from his early hit “Diles,” he helped bring Spanish-language trap and reggaeton to the global mainstream, breaking streaming and chart records along the way.
2. Billboard Breaker and Record Setter
He has multiple albums that reshaped Latin music’s place in pop culture. Albums like Un Verano Sin Ti debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and dominated streaming charts, proving Spanish-language music could dominate globally without translation.
3. Historic Grammy Wins
Bad Bunny’s 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos made history at the 2026 Grammy Awards by becoming the first Spanish-language album to win Album of the Year — a landmark achievement for representation in the music industry.
4. Cultural and Social Voice
He is known not just for his music but for speaking out on Puerto Rican identity, immigration, and social issues. Whether addressing colonial economics in his recent work or critiquing injustice in public appearances, his artistry is intertwined with real-world cultural meaning.
5. Language and Global Connection
Unlike many global stars who switch to English, Bad Bunny performs primarily in Spanish. This has sparked cultural conversations and even encouraged fans to learn Spanish to connect more deeply with his music ahead of the halftime show.
6. A Fashion and Identity Pioneer
His fashion — from nails and floral prints to cross-gender expression and collaborations with major brands — has helped redefine modern masculinity in urban music and expanded cultural visibility far beyond the stage.
7. Fans Are Calling It a Celebration
Across the U.S., Latino communities are hosting “Benito Bowl” watch parties and themed events, turning Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl appearance into a broader cultural celebration.
8. Backlash and Support
His selection has ignited debate across audiences and political commentators, underscoring how music, identity, and representation intersect on national stages — even as NFL leadership and music peers celebrate his influence.
9. What to Expect on Game Night
Details of his halftime set are being kept under wraps, but Bad Bunny himself promises the performance will be a joyful, dance-filled celebration of his culture and music — and that people won’t need to understand every word to feel the energy and rhythm.
10. A Moment Beyond Music
This is more than a concert — it’s a symbolic moment for Spanish-language artists on one of America’s biggest cultural stages. Whether you love football, music, culture, or all three, Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show promises to be unforgettable.
Atlanta-based band The Relics have released their new song “Just Another Name”. The group blends classic rock with modern alt and 90s rock influences, building a reputation for catchy hooks and high-energy live shows across the Southeast. This combination of styles has earned The Relics radio play across the U.S. and international chart positions.
“Just Another Name” marks a departure from their usual upbeat sound. The breakup song explores feeling stuck while the other person has moved on. Vocalist and guitarist Joseph Pieper wrote the track back in 2017 after a tough breakup, pulling inspiration from The Beatles and simply writing what he felt in the moment. Lyrics like “losing my mind / wasting my time” detail that feeling of replaying memories while knowing you’ve become “just another name” to someone who meant everything to you.
The band describes the song as “a heartfelt breakup song about the one that got away. It’s meant to have an undeniably catchy melody and has almost a beatle-esque charm to it.” After sitting on the song for eight years, The Relics finally felt the timing was right to release it. “Just Another Name” is streaming everywhere now.
Taylor Swift has announced she will release a new music video for “Opalite” at 8am EST on Friday. The video will first be available on Apple Music and Spotify before dropping on YouTube at 8am EST on Sunday. The single comes from Swift’s latest blockbuster album ‘The Life of a Showgirl’, which arrived in October.
