The Grammy-nominated US powerhouse singer-songwriter Beth Hart extends an iconic chapter, announcing a special digital deluxe edition of her acclaimed 2024 album, You Still Got Me – set for release on 17 June via Provogue. Hart will also be sweeping across Europe, playing shows from May to July and returning again in November. A September tour of the U.S.A. will also soon be announced.
Reinvigorating the record, the deluxe edition unlocks six tracks that were only previously available on a limited-edition box set, beginning with the jazzy blues sizzler, ‘Mean Ole Man Of Mine’.
“Mean Ole Man Of Mine” tells the story of a girl drawn to a wild, larger-than-life man—someone rough, unpredictable, and unapologetically bold. He wears a cattail for a tie, not because of fashion, but because he just ripped the tail right off. She wants a man that’s blowing people away in the alleyway – a real freakin’ pimp.
The sultry groove of “Stuff For You” offers another slice of Beth Hart magic. The deluxe edition turns up the heat with extended versions of “Savior With A Razor,” featuring the unmistakable guitar firepower of Slash of Guns N’ Roses, along with “Wonderful World,” “Wanna Be Big Bad Johnny Cash,” and “Don’t Call The Police.”
The original album made a powerful global impact, storming the charts at #1 on the US Billboard Blues Album chart, #1 on the UK Jazz & Blues chart, and Top 10 across Europe. With over 11 million streams worldwide, it stands as a testament to Hart’s magnetic artistry and enduring connection with audiences.
Adding to the excitement, Hart will embark on a tour performing 39 shows across the UK, Germany, Italy, Greece, Sweden and beyond—bringing her electrifying, soul-baring live performances to stages across the continent.
You Still Got Me, exemplifies her ability to seamlessly navigate across genres, breaking boundaries between blues, rock, and Americana. There were a number of singles from the original release; from the gritty, high-energy rocker ‘Savior With A Razor,’ featuring Guns N’ Roses’ Slash, to the tender ballad ‘Wonderful World,’ inspired by her family. ‘Big Bad Johnny Cash’ track draws on the signature sound of Cash’s most iconic hits, blending Hart’s rich vocals with a steady, hypnotic groove that channels his rebellious spirit and the uplifting ‘Little Heartbreak Girl’ further highlights her knack for crafting empowering anthems that resonate with audiences.
If you have ever seen Beth Hart live or immersed yourself in her music, you know she pours every ounce of herself into her songs. Firebrands inspire; it’s what attracts people to them. We all have our “Me” when she sings “You still got me” – a loved one, a friend, a pet, a place, a memory, a song. Beth Hart continues to inspire.

Formed in 1976 while at school in Dublin, U2 is an Irish rock band consisting of Bono (real name Paul Hewson, lead vocals), The Edge (real name David Evans, lead guitar), Adam Clayton (bass), and Larry Mullen Jr. (drums). The band was signed to Island Records a few years after forming and released its debut album, Boy, in 1980. At the turn of the decade, a new wave sound was developing that fell somewhere between the punk-inspired sounds of the Sex Pistols and the Ramones and the more pop-oriented sounds of Blondie and the Undertones. U2 did not follow the lead of that changing trend. The album’s opening track, “I Will Follow,”

Neue Deutsche Welle was never merely a genre tag; at its best, it was a license for mischief, machinery, and bad behavior. Güner Künier carries that lineage into Kes, a Berlin-born blast of clipped rhythm and crooked wit that struts into the old house of social obedience and starts kicking the furniture over.
Künier, born in Izmir in 1990 and raised in Flensburg after her family moved to Germany when she was three, had already lived a few creative lives before arriving here: teenage bands, industrial engineering studies in Berlin, acting, then a jump into solo work in the early 2020s. That unlikely route gives Kes its charge. You can hear the compression in the track, all that pressure transformed into a sharp, gloriously unruly statement.
The song works like a blade flashed under fluorescent light. The beat is insistent, mechanical in the best possible way, with that stern body language you get from classic DAF when the groove lands like a command barked across concrete. Around it, the synths jab and smear and squeal with the kind of pop perversity that suggests Nina Hagen after too much coffee, or Malaria! smuggling art-school menace into a back room with a broken drum machine and a stack of bad memories.
Künier’s a knockout presence: she never sounds like she is delivering a slogan laminated for safe public display. She sounds alive to the insult, alive to the absurdity, alive to the old rotten scaffolding of patriarchal power and fully prepared to laugh in its face before setting a match to it. Kes is about autonomy, reclaiming speech, about making yourself heard in a world built to reduce women to decor, but it gets there with style, with speed, with a delicious sense of danger and cartoon exaggeration.
That spirit carries straight into the video, directed and arranged by Magnus Krueger, with photography by Schwund & M.K., styling by Klara Johanna Michel, and a special guest appearance by Cosey Mueller. The clip plays like a bizarre romp through a heightened realm somewhere between Pee-wee’s Playhouse and The Twilight Zone, all goofy velocity and crooked glamour, with Künier moving through it like the only sane person in a rubber room. Behind the madness sits Fabio Buem’s production, engineering, mixing, and mastering, which keep every element lean, loud, and slightly unhinged.
Kes feels like a public disruption. Bless it for that.

Stockholm metal act, Blessed Insanity are set to release their latest single “Loaded Gun” on May 14th and perform the song live on May 15th in their hometown.
The song bursts into action with a growing synth bass as sing screaming melodic vocals usher in bright guitar leads, anthemic chords, and slamming drum grooves. From the get-go I get a sound that reminds me of a mix between melodic metal and a touch of the theatricality of power metal.
Electrifying guitar riffage and calmer singing soon leads into an upbeat, stadium-ready chorus as enticing vocals melodies filled with energy meet your ears. In a bridge that switches things up, thumping bass takes the forefront as a soaring guitar solo fills in the background of the soundscape before building back into a final chorus that closes out the track.
Overall,Blessed Insantity bring a high-octane sound to life that balances melody and heavy metal intensity. Fans of melodic metal, heavy metal, and power metal will enjoy “Loaded Gun”. You can stream the band’s new single available everywhere on May 14th!
Find Them Here: SoundCloud
Thanks for reading!
Blessed Insanity is melodic heavy metal from Stockholm, with sharp riffs, driving hooks and arena-sized choruses built to be sung loud. No gimmicks. No nostalgia throwbacks. Just loud, unapologetic metal.
