I wasn’t a rabid fan of The Boss when I streamed ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere’ on a recent flight to Mexico, but I came away from the movie with a new appreciation for Bruce Springsteen’s cathartic musical journey.

Maria Taylor and Conor Oberst way, way back together. Taylor is one half of Azure Ray, and that duo’s story is deeply intertwined with Oberst’s history with Bright Eyes. Bright Eyes took Azure Ray on tour in the early ’00s, and Taylor became a touring member of Oberst’s band and contributed to a bunch of…

Jason Aalon Butler is expanding his repertoire by taking on a full acting role in a new short film directed and written by Daniel McCartney.
The film is called ‘Rust God’ and will have Jason as the leading light, playing Anthony Angel, a rising rapper trying to find his footing amid newfound fame, expectations placed on him, and industry-wide racism. Things then heat up when a mistake whilst on the road, where who he used to be catches up with him and serves as the base for his redemption in the face of danger.
Daniel McCartney had this to say about the film and why Jason was the only man for the job:
“Jason was the first and only person I asked to take part as the lead in this short film and that’s for a reason. His intensity and talent for performing arts are exactly what I was looking for to tell this story. Working with him was a pleasure and an honor and will undoubtedly happen again. Can’t wait for everyone to see his amazing performance in this movie.”
The movie has been announced and is expected to be released soon. A trailer is still to drop, but based on the images shared, it’s going to be a gritty epic.
Aside from this unreal sidequest, Jason is set to make his return to the UK later this year with letlive..
The band will be performing at Download Festival before taking in a trio of intimate shows, one at the Garage in Glasgow and two at the legendary Underworld in London.

2025 was the year of Chuquimamani-Condori, and not just because they teamed with their brother Joshua Chuquimia Crampton for a phenomenal debut album as Los Thuthanaka. The artist also known as DJ E also showed out on Edits, which applied some of that reality-altering magic to a bunch of existing hits. There were some pop-country…

ILLENIUM has unveiled a video of what his recent Bring Me The Horizon collab – Slave To The Rithm – looks and sounds like from inside the epic Las Vegas Sphere.
The U.S. DJ and producer kicked off a residency there on March 5, celebrating his entire discography as well as new album ODYSSEY. And, as you’d expect when you team up with a band as visually exciting as BMTH, there was a lot to be done with the graphics on the giant screens to accompany Slave To The Rithm.
“Thanks for attending the totally normal, totally not at all demonic gathering this weekend,” ILLENIUM jokes in the caption, sharing a video of the track, while Horizon comment, “so fckin sick.”

In other Sphere news, Metallica recently announced their highly-anticipated Life Burns Faster run at the venue, which takes place between October and January 2027.
“About 12 seconds into the opening night of Sphere with U2 back in ’23, I thought ‘We have to do this, it’s completely uncharted territory!’” said Lars Ulrich. “This residency gives us another chance to reinvent how we interact with our fans in a live setting. We are beyond excited to share this with the world in six months’ time, and way fuckin’ psyched to go next-level!”
