After nearly a decade without new recorded music, The Casualties roar back into focus with “People Over Power,” a blunt-force statement that reasserts exactly where they stand. Released via Hellcat Records, the track wastes no time delivering its message, driven by breakneck momentum and unfiltered conviction. It lands as a rallying cry rooted in lived frustration, channeling anger toward collective action rather than resignation.
Frontman David Rodriguez describes the song as a response to relentless pressure from systems that feel stacked against everyday people, boiling the message down to its most direct form: people come first. Drummer Marc “Meggers” Eggers calls it a pure protest song, built to provoke reaction and movement. The band’s approach remains grounded in the street punk tradition shaped by The Exploited and the Sex Pistols, pairing rapid-fire riffs with unapologetically political intent.
That urgency carries straight into their 2026 live return, with The Casualties heading to the UK and Europe for a run of festival and headline appearances beginning in March. The shows extend the song’s message beyond the studio, reinforcing the band’s long-held role as a voice for the disillusioned and defiant.

Today, Band of Horses announce they will celebrate the 20th birthday of their Gold-certified 2006 debut album Everything All The Time with a newly expanded 20th Anniversary Edition, out on March 20, 2026 via Sub Pop. The expanded 19-track edition is accompanied by an additional LP of bonus tracks, including the 2005 tour EP, a trove of previously unreleased studio and live tracks, and rarities like “The End’s Not Near” (as featured on The O.C.) and a demo version of the double Platinum single “The Funeral.”
The album has been fully remastered for the anniversary edition, with the artwork refreshed and expanded into a gatefold jacket, including new liner notes by the album’s producer, Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Built To Spill, Modest Mouse, Father John Misty).
Everything All The Time (20th Anniversary Edition) will be available worldwide on double LP, CD, and digital platforms. The digital edition includes additional bonus tracks not available on the vinyl release. LP preorders in North America via the Sub Pop Mega Mart, the band’s official website, and local record stores will receive the limited Loser Edition on metallic gold vinyl. UK and EU preorders via Mega Mart Europe will receive the Loser Edition on opaque yellow vinyl.
Also out today is the previously unreleased fan favorite “(Biding Time Is a) Boat to Row,” accompanied by a new official video directed by James Ayling of Cape Films. Inspired by the real-life story of the 52-hertz whale, the video stars Josh Whitehouse (Daisy Jones & The Six).
Band of Horses will celebrate the release with a spring headlining anniversary tour. An Evening With Band of Horses: Celebrating 20 Years of Everything All The Time begins Thursday, April 9 in Portland, ME at State Theatre, and concludes on Saturday, May 2 in Columbia, MO at Rose Park.
Fan presales begin today at 12 p.m. EST. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, January 16 at 10 a.m. local time.
Ahead of the tour, the band will also perform a series of Seattle anniversary shows surrounding the album’s release, including an all-ages show on Thursday, March 19 at The Vera Project and a two-night stand at The Showbox on Saturday, March 21 and Sunday, March 22.
There might be no other band that was able to channel the generational anxiety in those early millennial years and turn it into such powerful and inclusive art quite like Band of Horses. Band of Horses fashioned gorgeously ragged epics, Ben Bridwell’s high-flying vocals and eccentric enunciation floating like a specter that felt like a prelude to a dream. Full of profundity, truth, and sometimes just homespun advice on how to live, Band of Horses songs have become anthems and touchstones for fans — meditations on change, longing, and what a person will do to make things right. And what you do when you can’t.
The band’s debut Everything All the Time (2006) introduced their sweeping, emotionally resonant sound, embodied by the double Platinum anthem “The Funeral,” now regarded as one of the most enduring songs of the modern indie rock era. The albums that followed, including 2007’s Cease To Begin, cemented their place in the indie rock canon. They’ve released six studio albums, including Infinite Arms (2010), which earned a Grammy nomination. Most recently, the critically acclaimed Things Are Great (2022) finds the band recapturing the raw emotion and unpolished punk-rock spirit of its earlier days.

Acclaimed meditation guide and mantra artist Rina Rain releases her new track and video “Om Mani Padme Hum,” a serene and immersive meditation rooted in ancient Sanskrit wisdom. Built on slow, steady repetition that gradually rises into a flowing rhythm, the mantra reflects compassion, love, and inner freedom. Rina describes the recording as an experience of dissolving into stillness, where sound and thought fade into silence, allowing presence and insight to unfold naturally.
“Om Mani Padme Hum” is the second offering from Rina Rain’s forthcoming album ‘Whispers of Rain’, a contemplative project designed for deep listening and reflection. Blending soulful vocals with spacious modern soundscapes, Rina’s work exists as an invitation rather than a performance, encouraging listeners to slow down, breathe, and return inward. With over two decades of experience guiding mindfulness and healing practices, her music continues to serve as a gentle threshold into quiet transformation and peace.

Northern Irish singer-songwriter Seán Feeny releases his new single “Galactic Tides,” out now, alongside the announcement of his debut album of the same name, arriving February 6. The track expands Feeny’s signature blend of history, heritage, and emotional storytelling, using cosmic imagery as a metaphor for emigration, identity, and belonging. Atmospheric and ambitious in scope, the song marks a clear step forward following praised earlier releases “1969” and “Western Roads.”
Written in collaboration with Ruairí Friel of Silver Winged They Fly and produced by Orri McBrearty, “Galactic Tides” features backing vocals from Sarah Cullen of The Reflection Box, adding a haunting, celestial texture. Feeny describes the song as “at its heart, an emigration story,” capturing the feeling of being placed somewhere unknown and slowly finding direction. The accompanying video, directed by Charlie Joe Doherty and filmed in West Donegal, visually mirrors the song’s themes of vastness, isolation, and connection.
Pianist and composer Michael Stephen Brown releases his debut album of original works titled ‘Twelve Blocks’ on February 13, 2026. This First Hand Records release features a series of musical portraits inspired by the personal stories of his mentors and collaborators. The album includes the title track “Twelve Blocks” as a single which arrived earlier today. Listeners will find twenty-three tracks that range from technical piano miniatures to expansive song cycles. This collection is a vivid tapestry of tributes and character portraits that highlights a distinct compositional voice.
The record features an elite group of performers including soprano Susanna Phillips and the SPA Trio. Brown also collaborates with his mentors Jerome Lowenthal and Ursula Oppens for the four hand piano work that gives the album its name. The music captures specific moments in time such as a daily walk through New York or the tragedy associated with the lakes at Yaddo. Every track on this album feels like an essential piece of a larger emotional puzzle.
One significant highlight is the song cycle ‘Love’s Lives Lost’ which sets poetry by Evan Shinners. The work explores the reunion of former lovers with a blend of humor and elegance. Another personal inclusion is the “Breakup Etude for the Right Hand Alone” composed during a period of physical injury and isolation. These works demonstrate how Brown transforms lived experience into virtuosic performance art. The album concludes with “Pour Angeline” a quiet love letter dedicated to his fiancée.
Brown earned dual degrees from the Juilliard School and has received an Avery Fisher Career Grant for his work. His compositions have been commissioned by organizations like the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Beyond his writing he remains an active soloist performing with major symphonies across the country. This new album serves as a definitive look at his creative evolution as both a performer and a creator.
Bozeman duo Buffalo Traffic Jam release their latest single “I Don’t Care” today through Arista Records. This reflective track arrives as Frankie Cassidy and Nathan Ross prepare for their debut headline “Take Me Home Tour” which begins next month. The song highlights the signature timeless vocals and vulnerable songwriting that earned the band over 90 million streams last year. This new release is a stunning addition to an already impressive discography.
The band describes the single as a representation of the clarity that arrives after a difficult period of loss. “The song details the process of turning a new leaf, leaving the past in the rearview, and refusing to look back,” the pair explains. They focus on the realization that certain past connections were unnecessary for their future growth. This honest perspective resonates deeply with a community of listeners built through the success of their ‘Take Me Home’ EP.
The upcoming tour schedule includes sold out performances at venues like 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis and Mercury Lounge in New York. The duo also joins the Turnpike Troubadours for arena shows at the Maverick Center and Extra Mile Arena in late March. Summer festival appearances are set for Bonnaroo and BottleRock following their recent debuts at Under the Big Sky and Red West. Fans in Montana and beyond have responded with incredible speed to secure tickets for every headline date.
“I Don’t Care” follows the massive momentum of the fan favorite “Fool’s Gold” which recently surpassed 30 million streams. The band continues to build on the success that landed them a spot on Holler Country’s 20 New Artists of 2026 list. With a calendar full of major festivals and cross-country dates, Buffalo Traffic Jam remains a primary fixture in the modern folk landscape.

The project arrives as a fully realized statement, blending raw vulnerability with relentless intensity across an expansive tracklist.
