Despite wearing the loudest outfit in an arena crammed with 7,500 Bernie Sanders fans, Julian Casablancas didn’t have much to say about the Democratic Senator from Vermont. The Strokes were the headline entertainment at Sanders’ latest presidential campaign rally on Monday night at the University of New Hampshire in Durham, and Casablancas took to the stage dressed like a lounge lizard who’d just teleported from a Comic-Con in Atlantic City.

After announcing its release date at last night’s Bernie Sanders rally in New Hampshire, the Strokes have detailed their first album in seven years. The New Abnormal, produced by Rick Rubin, arrives April 10 via Cult/RCA. They’ve also shared a song called “At the Door”—watch the Mike Burakoff-directed video below, and scroll down for the album tracklist.

It’s no secret that Rihanna’s fanbase is eager for her ninth album. The Fenty founder has become a fashion mogul in her own right—and it’s been four years since she released her last full-length, ANTi. However, the “Work” singer just offered an update on how her next project is shaping up—and she’ll jump back into the studio with her previous collaborator, Pharrell Williams.

Pearl Jam will play its smallest show in New York in nearly 14 years when it visits the historic Apollo Theatre in Harlem on March 26, the day before its 11th studio album “Gigaton” will be released on the group’s Monkeywrench label through Republic Records.

Jon Hopkins has officially released a new piano composition he recently debuted live at the Sydney Opera House. It’s called “Scene Suspended.” Have a listen below.

Diego Scotti knew many of the other ads running in Super Bowl LIV were going to be loud, chaotic and booming. So he decided to use a few smart touches to get his company’s quiet Big Game spot heard.

For those of us old enough to be music fans and attending concerts in the mid-1990s, Pearl Jam and Ticketmaster will forever be inextricably linked. Pearl Jam became synonymous with anti-Ticketmaster venom from both artists and consumers during that period, who saw the ticketing company as a monopoly (even in the pre-Live Nation merger days) that charged egregious fees to the detriment of both parties.

New York experimental quartet altopalo have announced their sophomore album. It’s called farawayfromeveryoneyouknow and it arrives April 24 via Samedi.

David Starr makes use of all assets around him. The Colorado singer-songwriter's new album Beauty & Ruin was produced primarily by good pal John Oates.

"Those vocals were already there"

Since Mac Miller’s posthumous album, “Circles,” came out Friday, many fans have been convinced they heard Ariana Grande’s voice on the track “I Can See.” The late rapper’s reps responded to queries with a “no comment.” Now, his ex-girlfriend’s vocal cameo has been confirmed — or equivocally confirmed, at least — by the record’s producer, Jon Brion.

Fingers firmly crossed

New Orleans-based sextet Sweet Crude unveiled the video for their new single, "Déballez" on Friday (Jan. 17), exclusively via Billboard.
