I was too embarrassed to sing in my apartment, he says on a video call. But my roommate at the time was dating the preacher's daughter, and had keys to the church across the street. In the dead of night, the madcap bassist and singer took his recording equipment to the empty church, set up on the podium, and first sang his anti-war song Too Many Puppies.

A special 50th anniversary Punk Rock history event at The New Farm featuring bands and musicians from the dawn of the punk rock revolution of San Francisco. NO ALTERNATIVE, SLEEPERS AD, SOCIETY DOG plus AVENGERS guitar player GREG INGRAHAM performing with JEAN CAFFEINE, THE DEAD SAILOR GIRLS & INSECT LOUNGE.

The category's been going around social media for a bit, but there's even a domain exclusively for Cigarette Mom Rock. There, the meaning of the genre is described as a "feminine counterpart to 'divorced dad rock,'" but is also meant to conjure up images of your own hard-working '90s mom, driving you to baseball practice with the windows down and a cigarette in one hand.

This guy started playing piano at the age of 3. This is such a complicated, amazing musician. This is the only guy that Miles Davis said, 'That guy can play!' Keenan praised Ahmad Jamal's exceptional musicianship and technical proficiency, emphasizing the pianist's influence and recognition from jazz legend Miles Davis.

The new album Everything Must Go arrives on April 24 via Bad Time Records and Community Records, and first single 'Free Dom' is out now. It finds Bad Operation doing what they do best, fusing 2 Tone's influence with fresh, urgent new ideas and coming out with something danceable, catchy, and powerful.

I have written before that while women are gloriously surging in academic, social, and career achievement, many young men are flailing. Pop culture pieces as well as academic dissertations are replete with accounts of male aimlessness and resultant disaffection and disengagement. They point out that the growing achievement gap and resultant maturational/responsibility gap between men and women are making young men progressively less and desirable to modern young women.

Pop punk lifers New Found Glory are back with their 12th album, Listen Up!, their first album since guitarist Chad Gilbert began cancer treatment and an album that the band says was shaped by that ongoing experience. "We wanted to make something that really focused on how lucky we are," Chad says. "We've all gone through serious stuff in our lives, and I think the lyrics on this record are more meaningful and purposeful than ever. It's a positive outlet that hopefully keeps people going."

Emerging from the rough-and-gritty streets of late-'70s London, Iron Maiden met the world with galloping rhythms, steel-forged riffs, and banner-raising vocals-and they never stopped. Their intricate multi-guitar melodies and unmatched vigor helped define heavy music, and the band remains a fixture of the genre. The Cry Baby Wah was integral to the momentous album Killers, escalating the tension and deepening the dark grittiness of tracks such as "Wrathchild," "Innocent Exile," and "Drifter."

There isn't one songwriter, and so the flavour of the band is always going to change, says Dave Vanian, reflecting on 50 years of the group of which he has been the sole constant member, the Damned. Captain Sensible is a great fan of syrupy pop music and prog and glam rock. So his writing is very poppy, melodic and quite wonderful.
