LE SSERAFIM And BTS’s J-Hope Turn Up The Heat With Bold New Single ‘Spaghetti’

0

LE SSERAFIM serve up something bold, playful, and totally unforgettable with “Spaghetti,” their highly anticipated new single featuring BTS’s J-Hope. In an exclusive behind-the-scenes interview with Teen Vogue, the group opened up about their first-ever food-inspired concept, the creative process behind the music video, and how this collaboration captures everything fans love about their fearless energy.

Sakura describes the track as “LE SSERAFIM’s charm that pulls you in — like spaghetti strands you just can’t escape from,” while Eunchae reveals how the visuals were designed to feel “stuck in your brain, like spaghetti stuck in your teeth.” Kazuha, Chaewon, and Yunjin all spoke about the fun of pushing boundaries — from tooth gems and bold nail art to synchronized red outfits and choreography that mixes confidence with humor.

J-Hope’s presence brings extra flavor, with Yunjin calling him “an artist I deeply admire and respect” whose energy gave the song its perfect kick. For LE SSERAFIM, “Spaghetti” is more than a single — it’s a celebration of growth, unity, and style. As Yunjin puts it, “Even if it’s not to everyone’s taste, we keep doing what we love — with fearless confidence and style.”

David Guetta, Teddy Swims, and Tones And I Drop Electrifying Remix of ‘Gone Gone Gone’

0

Grammy-winning hitmaker and global dance music icon David Guetta releases a new remix of his latest single “Gone Gone Gone,” via Warner Records, with multi-platinum artist Teddy Swims, and record-smashing pop powerhouse Tones And I. Following the original single’s release on October 10th, the remix reimagines the soaring soul-pop anthem and is immediately ready for dance floors around the globe.

“Gone Gone Gone” has already made waves, becoming the most added song in the U.S. at Top 40 and Hot AC radio this week. The track also debuted on the Spotify Global Top 200, charting in over 20 markets worldwide.

“Gone Gone Gone” was only the latest monumental moment in a nonstop year for Guetta, who was just crowned The World’s No.1 DJ by DJ Mag — an honor he’s now claimed five times. He only just wrapped up four months of Ibiza residencies, including his legendary F*** Me I’m Famous! series at Ushuaïa on Mondays and his ambitious new Galactic Circus show at UNVRS on Fridays. He currently has a globe-trotting slate of headlining festival dates ahead of him and is also bringing his eye-boggling Monolith stage setup to eager audiences. The first two announced dates of his 2026 Ultimate Monolith Show at Paris’ Stade de France arena sold out almost immediately — to the tune of 240,000 tickets— so he’s added a third on June 11 with special guest Armin van Buuren.

Guetta has also dropped what feels like countless collaborations, remixes, and original hits this year. Continuing a historic creative partnership, he reunited with nine-time Grammy-nominated star Sia for the powerful new single, “Beautiful People,” which hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart, giving Guetta his record-breaking 18th chart-topper at dance radio.

Swims recently released his emotionally walloping and deeply resonant I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Complete Edition), sharing new singles like “God Went Crazy” and “All Gas, No Brakes” featuring BigXthaPlug alongside known hits including “Bad Dreams,” “Guilty,” “Are You Even Real” featuring Giveon, “The Door,” and “Lose Control.” The latter has become a six-time platinum hit with nearly four billion global streams and holds the record for the longest Billboard Hot 100 run in history — “Lose Control” is currently No. 9 with 110 weeks on the chart and counting. Teddy Swims has been on his biggest sold-out global tour for much of 2025.

Meanwhile, Tones And I is gearing up for her next musical era following the 2024 release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, Beautifully Ordinary. Co-produced by Tones And I and featuring her as the sole writer on nearly every song, the LP captures her artistic evolution and personal growth since exploding onto the scene — transforming from a busker from Australia’s idyllic Mornington Peninsula into a global pop force who’s smashed records, garnered multiple awards, sold out tours, and surpassed 12 billion streams. Her breakout hit “Dance Monkey” is the most Shazamed song ever and lives in Spotify’s Top 10 Most-Streamed Songs of All-Time.

Halle Bailey Releases Debut Album ‘Love?…Or Something Like It’ Featuring Chlöe, GloRilla, Mariah The Scientist, and H.E.R.

Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Halle Bailey releases her long-awaited debut album, Love?…or Something Like It via Columbia Records. The 15-track project features collaborations with Chlöe, GloRilla, Mariah The Scientist, and H.E.R., as well as a notable lineup of producers including Bongobytheway (Kanye West, Latto, Jazmine Sullivan), Needlz (Cardi B & Bruno Mars), D Phelps (Leon Thomas & Giveon), and Dem Jointz (Kanye West, Eminem, Doechii).

The project it is Bailey’s most personal body of work to date, crafted over several years and inspired by the raw emotional journey of young love, heartbreak and self-discovery. The album features previously released songs, including “Back and Forth,” “Braveface,” “In Your Hands,” and her Grammy-nominated debut single “Angel.”

“The songs capture the highs and lows of first love and the self-discovery that follows,” Bailey says. “The album traces the arc of my journey—falling headfirst into the euphoria of connection, giving all of myself to someone else, and then when it’s all over, wrestling with the question: was that really love, or just something like it?”

Halle is a Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, and musician whose ethereal voice and soulful storytelling have made her one of R&B’s most exciting young artists. She first captured global attention as one half of the acclaimed duo Chloe x Halle, signed to Beyoncé’s Parkwood Entertainment. Together, they released two critically lauded albums — The Kids Are Alright and Ungodly Hour — earning multiple Grammy nominations. In 2023, she launched her solo career with the powerful debut single “Angel,” celebrating black womanhood and self-worth. Blending R&B, neo-soul, and cinematic emotion, Halle continues to define her own sound — honest, radiant, and deeply human.

Bleecker Street Acquires ‘Spinal Tap At Stonehenge: The Final Finale,’ A Rock Epic 5000 Years In The Making

0

Bleecker Street has acquired U.S. distribution rights to Vertigo Live and Rob Reiner’s Spinal Tap at Stonehenge: The Final Finale. The concert film follows legendary fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap (Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer reprising their iconic roles) as they put on a once-in-a-lifetime concert marking the first-ever rock show filmed at Stonehenge, the historic English heritage site forever linked to Spinal Tap’s iconic song of the same name. The film features show-stopping guest performances from Shania Twain, Eric Clapton, and Josh Groban will be released by Bleecker Street in theaters and IMAX in 2026.

The acquisition comes following Bleecker Street’s re-release of the original 1984 cult classic, This Is Spinal Tap, this past summer and the long-awaited sequel, Spinal Tap Il: The End Continues, which launched in theaters last month. Spinal Tap at Stonehenge: The Final Finale was produced by Vertigo Live, a leading producer of documentary concert films.

“I’m told this is it. They’re really serious this time,” states Bleecker Street CEO Kent Sanderson. “While this is ostensibly the end, how fitting is it that this actual-probable-send-off is shot, historically, at Stonehenge, the mysterious landmark that we now know must have been erected thousands of years ago purely to serve as the setting for the last act of Spinal Tap.”

Stonehenge is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, cared for by the charity English Heritage. An incredible feat of human ingenuity, the stone circle was built 5000 years ago, most probably as a place of great ceremonial significance aligned to the sun’s movements. Open 364 days a year, the prehistoric site is a bucket-list destination for people across the world, attracting more than a million visitors each year.

Iron Maiden Announces 2026 ‘Run For Your Lives’ North American Tour With Megadeth And Anthrax

0

Iron Maiden announces the highly anticipated North American dates of their critically acclaimed Run For Your Lives Tour. In celebration of their 50th anniversary, the band will be performing at stadiums and major amphitheaters across the United States and Canada, allowing fans the chance to witness the new, state-of-the-art production on the scale it is intended for – huge stages in outdoor venues, to accompany the once-in-a-lifetime setlist of songs from the band’s groundbreaking first nine albums. They will also headline America’s biggest rock festival, Louder Than Life, at the Highland Festival Grounds in Kentucky on September 17, 2026.

Megadeth will support all headlining dates while Anthrax will appear at select stadium shows.

Steve Harris says, “We are greatly looking forward to bringing this Run for Your Lives Tour to North America and hope the fans enjoy seeing the show and hearing the set list as much as we do playing it. It’s an added bonus to have a few of our good friends on the tour with us. MEGADETH are playing all the shows and it’s an honour to have them join us on their last ever tour. We also have Anthrax with us on the bigger shows, we had a great time with them when they came out with us on Ed Force One around the world in 2016. We’re delighted to have both bands with us for this tour and know our fans will enjoy seeing them.”

Bruce Dickinson adds, “This whole tour has been such great fun. I really enjoy belting out all these great old songs, and the whole band are loving playing them too! We’ve got all the big ones from that early period including Hallowed, Run To The Hills, Trooper, Number Of The Beast, Killers, Powerslave, 2 Minutes… and some of them we haven’t played in the US for over 20 years!! Plus there’s some real epics including my particular favourite ‘Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ and Seventh Son… We are doing them all and more. I mean, who wouldn’t for a 50th birthday party!”

The band once again requests fans keep their phones in their pockets to enjoy the show “in the moment.”

These upcoming tour dates will mark 45 years since Iron Maiden first visited Canada and the USA on the 1981 Killer World Tour, and feature some of the biggest shows the band has ever played there. The return to BMO Stadium concert in Los Angeles on September 25th will be the 25th time the band has played in the City of Angels.

Charles James & The Rise Return With ‘About a Cow,’ A Haunting Folk Meditation On Greed And Sacrifice

0

Following the release of their hauntingly cinematic debut album Crossing the Bar, Charles James & The Rise return with their latest single, “About a Cow”, arriving October 21st.

The band’s growing acclaim has seen them perform live on RTÉ Radio 1’s Sunday with Miriam, support Gavin James on his Goldrush album launch tour, and take home Music Video of the Year at the 2025 Disappear Here Film Festival for their single Sailor and the Saint.

A standout track from Crossing the Bar, About a Cow is a striking meditation on greed and consumption, told through an unexpected narrator, a cow. “It’s a song that’s had a number of lives and has been with me for a long time,” says Charles James O’Donnell, the band’s frontman and songwriter. “As abstract the notion may seem, the lyrics hit on the sacrifice that’s made in all forms to service greed and the longer term impacts this has”

Set against the band’s trademark blend of cinematic folk and lyrical introspection, About a Cow unfolds like a dark pastoral fable, anchored by Charles’s emotive vocals, Catherine O’Donnell’s plaintive piano, and spectral strings from legendary Waterboys fiddler Steve Wickham and cellist Laura McFadden.

Released September 12th, 2025, Crossing the Bar is the debut full-length from Charles James & The Rise, a widescreen folk odyssey through grief, memory and the tides of loss. Inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson’s elegiac poem of the same name, the album transforms themes of death and departure into songs of solace and renewal.

Featuring lush instrumentation, cinematic production, and stirring performances, the record has been praised for its emotional honesty and musical depth.

Staytus Unleashes ‘Kiss N Tell,’ A Dark Industrial-Grunge Anthem

0

Alternative-rock force Staytus channels pure industrial-grunge adrenaline on her new single “Kiss N Tell.” Dark, seductive, and cinematic, the track dives deep into obsession and temptation through thunderous drums, distorted guitars, and haunting vocals — a perfect storm arriving just in time for Halloween. It’s fury and beauty colliding in three and a half minutes of chaos and confession.

Produced by Grammy-winning hitmaker Mikal Blue (OneRepublic, Jason Mraz, Colbie Caillat), “Kiss N Tell” finds Staytus backed by an all-star lineup — Jeff Friedl (A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, DEVO) on drums and Anthony Laurie of Thredge on guitar. Together, they create a sound that feels both mechanical and human, fusing industrial pulse with grunge emotion. “It’s about temptation and consequence,” says Staytus. “The things we hide, the lies we tell ourselves, and the chaos that comes from wanting too much.”

The visual world of “Kiss N Tell” draws from The Silence of the Lambs, with Staytus embodying secrecy and metamorphosis — a gothic butterfly across her lips. The single follows “68 Kill,” continuing her rise as one of industrial music’s most daring new voices. Staytus doesn’t just perform songs — she builds cinematic worlds where danger, beauty, and truth all share the same stage.
