Concert Review: Haunt, Show-n-Tell, Hashtronaut, Sovnya and Heavy Lean at No Fun in Troy, NY
On June 21, 2026, Summer Solstice, there was a HAUNTing in downtown Troy, NY.
No Fun in Troy, NY is a cool, funky little live music bar in the winding streets of the
downtown River Street area of that Upstate New York city. In recent years, this
neighborhood has gotten a bit of a hipster “mini-Brooklyn of the north” vibe, and this
venue adds to that vibe. No Fun is a small, grungy joint, but keeps a great, eclectic live music schedule, an imaginative beer selection, and o

Music Review: Motionless in White Release R.I.P. with Skylar Grey
On Wednesday, June 17th, Motionless In White released the third single from their upcoming album, Decades, set for release on July 17th. The track, featuring Skylar Grey, is cinematic, painting a dark picture of uncertainty in love.
The song opens with a haunting piano as if it were a bell signalling distress. Grey, an independent artist who gained widespread recognition for her work with Eminem and Dr. Dre on “I Need A Doctor”, opens with a haunting, breathy chorus befor

Concert Review: Snoop Dogg Turns Long Beach's F&M Bank Amphitheater Grand Opening Into a Visual History Long Beach, CA — June 6, 2026
Snoop Dogg headlined the grand opening of the F&M Bank Amphitheater on June 6, 2026, and the whole night felt less like a tour stop than a reunion the city had been waiting on for years. Kurupt was there. So was Lady of Rage, Tray Deee, RBX, Soopafly, Tha Eastsidaz, OT Genasis, Kalvin Love, and Ray Vaughn, plus a rotating cast of guests I gave up trying to keep a mental list of somewhere around the third surprise appearance. By the time Mayor Rex Richardson walked out to hand

Interview: Manfred Sittmann of Elephants And Stars, New Album Philistine Vulgarity Out June 19, 2026.
Were there any particular events or emotions that shaped the songwriting?
Definitely. One of my biggest criticisms of my lyrics have always been a lack of specificity. With everything happening in the world, I definitely wanted to speak to that with some clarity. Songs like Sanctuary Cities and The Reckoning are direct indictments of what is happening in America right now with the grotesque hypocrisy of "Christians" vilifying refugees in spite of the notion that their alle

Concert Review: Lzzy & Joe – Raw, Real and Unplugged at The Garage, Glasgow
Some gigs are all about spectacle. Towering stage productions, blinding lights and walls of amplifiers. Others strip everything back and remind you that great songs don't need any of that. Lzzy and Joe's opening night of their UK unplugged tour at Glasgow's Garage was exactly that – an intimate evening built on incredible musicianship, storytelling and the unmistakable connection they've built with their fans over the years.

Concert Review: Warped Tour DC 2026
This festival was chaotic in the best way possible. Everyone was so eager to see the set times unveil at 11. So many people lined up to see if the band on their shirt was playing today. The scramble of last-minute planning what stage you’ll be at when brought us back to the carelessness we had as kids.
