I know I’ve said that I don’t do album reviews anymore, but the new Panic! At the Disco album, Pray For The Wicked, is just so life-altering that I can’t help it. And by life-altering, I mean that it just might end up nudging its way onto my Top 20 Albums of All-Time list. Of…

Well, it’s not from a new Selena Gomez album, which I know we’re all dying for, but here’s a new track by the woman herself, “Back to You,” which hails from the Thirteen Reasons Why Season 2 soundtrack. And what a superb song it is. It’s like Kygo, Marshmello and Zedd all co-produced it. In…

review and photos by Michael McCarthy This past Friday night I finally saw the legendary Juliana Hatfield – one of my favorite artists – in concert.

Welcome back, Lily Allen. It’s been a while. Well, OK, maybe only four years, but that’s a long time. A woman could have four babies during that amount of time.

The thing that makes Laure Shang one of my favorite Chinese artists is that you never know what she’s going to do next. You really don’t. In fact, I dare say she’s one of the most unpredictable artists on the planet, which, for me, also makes her one of the most fascinating artists, too. At some…

Today the legendary Amanda Palmer unleashed the above cover of Pink Floyd’s “Mother” and it’s haunting us already. She came up with the moving arrangement with her composer friend Jherek Bischoff and it’s every bit as emotional as Pink Floyd’s original. I know that’s saying a lot, but if you’re listening to it right now…
