Before Shirley Manson became the famous leader of Garbage, she was playing in a band called Angelfish. Now, that group is reuniting for their first show in a decade and all proceeds go to humanitarian aid charities for Palestinian children.

Last year, Haircut 100 announced their first album since 1984’s Paint And Paint. The British new wavers released “The Unloving Plum,” and now they’re finally divulging details about the record, which is titled Boxing The Compass, and sharing another single called “Dynamite.”

A cybersquatter has been occupying slipknot.com for over two decades, allegedly using the URL to advertise counterfeit merchandise for the metal band. Slipknot are only now suing for the domain name.

The last time we heard from the ever-elusive Sky Ferreira was when she released “Leash” for the Babygirl soundtrack last year. The press release stated that her long-awaited sophomore album Masochism was “set for launch,” and then nothing happened. This came shortly after she detailed getting dropped from Capitol Records and said she was “working to try and get some of those songs back” from the label. Last night, though, the alt-pop enigma joined Smerz in Los Angeles at the Regent Theater for “You got time and I got money.”

On Tuesday Paper Club, Scotland’s Brògeal show you all the bands they can be. The way the quintet encounters sound is the way they encounter thirst. “And when you get fed up of the stout, move on to the wine!/ Join the Tuesday Paper Club, there’s solace in the news/ If that don’t quite cut it, there’s solace in the booze!” goes one boisterous line on the title track.

What’s the greatest rap crew of all time? There are a bunch of valid answers to that question. One of the leading candidates would have to be the Wu-Tang Clan, who just finished a triumphant farewell tour. Now, Wu-Tang mastermind RZA has turned his attention to one of the other greatest rap crews in history, the Juice Crew.

Lily Allen is a huge influence on the current generation of conversational, gleefully messy pop stars, but she hasn’t released any music of her own in a while. No Shame, her most recent album, came out back in 2018. But Allen has remained culturally present in different ways: Publishing a memoir, hosting a podcast, selling a vibrator, acting in big productions on London’s West End, defending the entire idea of nepo babies. Now, she’s finally ready to return with a new album.
