The politically righteous, melodically sharp Manitoba punks Propagandhi have been a band since 1986, and they’ve never made a record that wasn’t worth hearing. Increasingly, those guys take long breaks between records. Their most recent was Victory Lap, and that one came out eight years ago. Right now, the world could really use a new Propagandhi record, and we’re about to get one. Their new LP has the presumably-ironic title At Peace, and it’s set to arrive this spring — right on time, if you ask me.

Three women have won Best Rap Album at the Grammys: Ms. Lauryn Hill (as a member of Fugees), Cardi B, and most recently Doechii.

In January, Finneas covered the Zombies’ 1968 classic “Time Of The Season” for Triple J’s Like A Version series. Colin Blunstone, who sang lead vocals on the original recording, said he was “thrilled” by Finneas’ “really special” interpretation of it, and so Finneas began incorporating his “Time Of The Season” cover into his live shows. At his show in Los Angeles last week, Blunstone joined him for a duet of “Time Of The Season” onstage. It must’ve been special for Finneas and all, but I’m mostly just impressed Blunstone’s upper register still sounds that good. Check out some clips below.

On Feb. 26, the space exploration company Intuitive Machines launched their IM-2 “Freedom Payload” mission, an effort to establish a data center on the lunar south pole designed and operated by Lonestar Data Holdings. That data center was one of the payloads on the Athena moon lander, which launched atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket with the intention of searching for water ice that humans could utilize on future missions. But following a botched landing of a similar mission last year, this one ended rather anticlimactically: After touching down about 100 miles away from its intended landing location, Athena tipped over, curtailing the mission. But, depending on how you look at the situation, it wasn’t a total failure: Lonestar’s Freedom Data Center remained intact, carrying eight terabytes worth of material as a backup to Earth storage. Among that material is an Imagine Dragons song.

Senator Bernie Sanders is currently on a tour his team is calling “Fighting Oligarchy,” a series of town hall discussions in various US cities condemning the country’s tyrannical administration.

Lady Gaga’s new album Mayhem came out on Friday, and to celebrate, the pop megastar did double duty as the host and musical guest on Saturday Night Live. It was her fifth time as the show’s musical guest, coming just a few weeks after her performance with the Lonely Island on SNL50: The Homecoming Concert. It was a funny show!

Have you ever wondered what Death Cab For Cutie’s seminal fourth album Transatlanticism would sound like if it was screamo? Well you’re in luck. A bunch of bands got together and transformed the iconic 2003 collection, titling it Farther Than Ever Before.

Since Trump took presidency, Ben Folds, Renée Fleming, and Shonda Rhimes have all stepped down from their positions at the John F. Kennedy Center For The Performing Arts. Trump is in the process of eliminating the center’s “woke” art as its longtime president Deborah Rutter and Joe Biden’s appointees to its board were fired, and now a statement has been released.
