Jude Law has praised Radiohead and said he would be “honoured” to work with them. Speaking during a new interview with The Guardian, the actor described Thom Yorke and co as “one of the great bands”. “I’ve always adored Radiohead. I think they are just blistering with talent. I listen to their music regularly. They’re one of the great bands,” he said. “I’ve worked with Vampire Weekend [reading a poem on their 2019 album ‘Father Of The Bride’] because Ezra [Koenig] is an old friend of mine. If Thom Yorke and his band want me to do anything, I would…

Tony Hawk has given fans an update on the future of the Pro Skater franchise. The original Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater game was released in 1999 and introduced a generation to alternative music and skateboarding culture.

Flappy Bird is set to make a return, 10 years after the viral mobile game was taken offline. Originally launched in 2013 by video game developer Dong Nguyen and his company .Gears, Flappy Bird was a side-scrolling mobile game that tasked players with helping Faby The Bird avoid green pipes with well-timed button presses. After a slow start, the game quickly became one of the most popular mobile phone apps and by the start of 2014, was reportedly earning Nguyen more than £38,000 ($50,000) a day through sales and in-game adverts. However, in February the same year, Nguyen suddenly removed…

LCD Soundsystem’s James Murphy was in a coffee shop when he heard a song from Mermaid Chunky’s deeply bizarre ‘VEST’ EP, prompting him to sign the Gloucestershire avant-pop duo to his label DFA. Presented with that potentially career-launching endorsement, a new band could be forgiven for toning things down. Instead, Freya Tate and Moina Moin’s debut album ‘Slif Slaf Slof’ is even weirder: a startlingly funny, brash mix of folk, house and psych-pop which – for all its eccentricity – has real purpose and heart. ‘Slif Slaf Slof’ centres on the surreal, character-driven lyrics of Tate and Moin. On album…
BOYNEXTDOOR aren’t quite ready to take on adulthood. Sitting on staggered chairs inside one of HYBE’s cavernous, black-walled practice rooms, the six-member boyband (whose ages range from 17 to 21) are telling NME about their struggle to feel like they’ve actually come of age, and how they channelled those feelings into their latest mini-album ‘19.99’. After his birthday came and went with no magical transformation into a ‘real adult’, Leehan says, “I realised that inside I was the same as when I was a child.” Sungho agrees: “Honestly, I think all of us are still kids.” Reaching the milestone can…
Deadletter have you where they want you before you even start listening to their debut album ‘Hysterical Strength’. The title alone sets the mood: the post-punk band are in thrall to life’s contradictions, busking at the crossroads where beauty meets brutality, fearsomely strong while also embracing the hysteria. The Yorkshire-bred group are now based – where else – in South London, and they’ve pitched themselves with this record somewhere between the clarity of genre forefathers Magazine and Gang of Four and the maximal overflow of contemporaries Black Midi and Squid. Broody, crunching guitars might be their staple diet, but Deadletter…
Steve McQueen’s son Chad McQueen, best known for his role in The Karate Kid, has died aged 63. READ MORE: Why is ‘Cobra Kai’ ending after six seasons? McQueen’s lawyer Arthur Barens told TMZ that he died of organ failure at his ranch in Palm Springs on Wednesday (September 11). “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our father Chad McQueen,” his wife Jeanie and children Chase and Madison said on social media. “His remarkable journey as a loving father to us, along with his unwavering commitment to our mother, truly exemplified a life filled…
“Three months ago, I didn’t know anything about this job. Now I know too much. How can I not do anything?” an aggrieved Lee Jung-do (Kim Woo-bin) asks his father in Officer Black Belt as he faces the call of duty. It might be easy to dismiss Netflix’s new Korea film as a cookie-cutter action-packed thriller, but the key conflict in Officer Black Belt is as surprising and earnest as its protagonist, and incredibly relevant to anyone following the news cycle. If you knew something wrong was happening right under your nose, would you do anything to change things or feign…
