Babehoven’s Water’s Here in You begins with singer Maya Bon on bended knee, hands outstretched. “I forgive you,” she sings atop cascading harmonies and persistent guitar strums, extending an olive branch to an estranged family member who has fallen ill. The track, “Birdseye,” is a sobering meditation on reconciliation and repentance, a nod to the fragility of life, and the thesis statement of the Hudson Valley duo’s latest album.

Taylor Swift started off as a country artist at a time when the genre was both less respectful and accommodating of the voices of women than at any other point in its storied history. The singer’s first four albums barely scan as country music in a meaningful way, instead embracing her preternatural gifts for pop conventions, and her output has gotten stronger the more openly she’s embraced those skills. In the 18 years since the single “Tim McGraw” launched Swift to country stardom, she’s jettisoned the genre’s ill-fitting signifiers and overcome the limitations of her early recordings—improvements captured in her “Taylor’s Version” re-recordings as a powerful statement of artistic agency.
After spending the last year traveling the world on her Eras Tour, Swift has returned with a double album, The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology. To celebrate, we’ve revisited all 11 of her studio albums...

Welcome back to Origins, our recurring series that gives artists a space to break down everything that went into their latest release. Today, Been Stellar take us through “Sweet,” the latest single from their upcoming album, Scream from New York, NY.
The post-punk revival is as strong as ever, and Been Stellar are quickly rising through the scene’s ranks with recent opening slots for Fontaines D.C. and Shame. Now, they’re set to drop their Dan Carey-produced debut album, Scream from New York, NY, featuring the latest single, “Sweet.”
The song develops perfectly on the post-punk ethos from which the band hails, but infuses it with a spaciness and shoegaze vibe. This is intentional, as they took major inspiration from Mazzy Star — specifically “the way David Roebuck is able to loop relatively simple chords with open strings underneath gives this sort of infinite longing feel that is mesmerizing.

Brian Wilson has joined forces with the late Glen Campbell for a posthumous duet of Campbell’s song, “Strong.”
“Strong (with Brian Wilson)” is the latest entry in the upcoming duet collection Glen Campbell Duets — Ghost on the Canvas Sessions, which is out everywhere on April 19th.

A posthumous duet between Hope Sandoval and Glen Campbell that reimagines his song “The Long Walk Home” has been released as the latest preview of the upcoming album Glen Campbell Duets – Ghost on the Canvas Sessions. Stream it below.
On the new version of “The Long Walk Home,” the Mazzy Star singer’s airy vocals pair seamlessly with Campbell’s, bringing extra melancholy to the song — which was written about the late country singer’s battle with Alzheimer’s. “I know I’ll never be the same again/ I hope I’ll still remember you,” they sing together. “Above it all I know our love will transcend/ On my long walk home.”
In a press statement, producer and co-writer Julian Raymond revealed how Sandoval inspired Campbell’s music: “Glen and I listened to a couple of different Mazzy Star songs while we were preparing to record the Meet Glen Campbell...

Ahead of the reissue of their 2020 self-titled debut, Texas-based slowcore act Teethe have released a new bite-sized single, “Thanks.” Sweet, slow, and low-key, the track comes packaged with a stunning animated video by Rosa Sawyers that captures the understated beauty of the tune through swirling, technicolor landscapes.
Like Mazzy Star or Low before them, Teethe manage to strike upon an indescribable mix of crushing sadness and pure, sublime beauty — a paradoxically warm sense of melancholy. “Everything was alright/ Everything was okay,” the quiet lead vocals sing as the song establishes its tone with nothing more than acoustic guitar and heart-piercing melodies. Before long, the track opens up with slide guitar and hints of percussion, all while keeping it dreamy and subdued.
Even at just 70 seconds in length, “Thanks” sonically and thematically delivers upon the promise of its title. It’s a poignant expression of gratitude that feels no need to...

As the tenth anniversary of Glen Campbell’s Ghost on the Canvas was approaching, Dave Kaplan —whose Surfdog Records released the haunting album in 2011 — was pondering ways to honor it. A late-period landmark for Campbell, who died in 2017 after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s disease, Ghost on the Canvas found the venerable pop-country singer and guitarist covering songs by a new generation of writers — alt-rock types like Paul Westerberg, Guided By Voices’ Robert Pollard, Jakob Dylan, and Teddy Thompson. The album ranked Number 88 on Rolling Stone‘s list of...

Suki Waterhouse had a big reveal for her fans at Sunday’s Corona Capital Festival in Mexico. “I’m extra sparkly today because I thought it might distract you from something else that’s going on,” she said, smiling as she pointed to her belly before opening her coat to reveal a baby bump.
“I’m not sure if it’s working,” she added, as the crowd cheered.

Say what you will about the later seasons of "Rick and Morty," but when it's time for a big lore-heavy episode, they always deliver. So goes "Unmortricken," last night's mid-season episode that unexpectedly tied up multiple series-long questions within a standard 21-minute run time. The episode didn't just wrap up the storyline with Rick Prime — something they've been hinting at as early as the season 3 premiere — but it brought back Evil Morty, a character we've only gotten in little bits and pieces throughout the first five seasons. This all could've easily felt overstuffed, but somehow the pacing felt just right.
Well, mostly: One small issue with this episode is how it feels like it came a little too soon. The season 6 finale hinted at a whole season-long, serialized storyline about Rick going up against Rick Prime. While it's perfectly in character for the show to stick to its more episodic approach,...

During the singer and songwriter’s performance at weekend one of Austin City Limits, she tapped into the dazzling haze of Taylor Swift’s Lover with a cover of the 2019 album’s title track. Waterhouse seamlessly integrated “Lover” into her setlist, transitioning into it from Mazzy Star’s “Fade Into You” in the same smooth vocal tone.
The singer’s renditions of “Fade Into You” and “Lover” formed a medley with one of her own singles, “Brutally.

The Jesus & Mary Chain have announced a new live album titled Sunset 666, out August 4th via Fuzz Club. Recorded in 2018 while the band was opening for Nine Inch Nails in Los Angeles, it includes a version of “Sometimes Always” with former Belle & Sebastian singer Isobel Campbell. Hear that below.
Sunset 666 was recorded during a run of six shows at the Hollywood Palladium and spans the Scottish alt-rockers’ discography from 1985’s Psychocandy through their 2017 comeback album, Damage and Joy.

Swipe through Hinge or Tinder, and chances are you’ll see Etta Marcus’s name. Not because the London singer is looking for someone to date, but because single people have started to cite a love of her music as a non-negotiable. “All I ask is that you: listen to Etta Marcus” reads one dating profile. “We’ll get along if: you like Etta Marcus” states another. But Marcus herself had no idea about this. “Are you serious?” she says, her blue eyes widening.
Despite only entering the industry two years ago, Marcus has gained a distinct “if you know, you know” cult-like fanbase, akin to that early Tumblr movement surrounding a young Lana Del Rey. Why? Well, she’s got the type of vocal that silences a bustling room, or that suddenly makes you aware that you’re swallowing. Her indigo tone slices the air like scissors through ribbon,...

Lena’s Dunham’s new film Catherine Called Birdy represents a difficult case for this critic. The overwhelming feeling of “it’s simply not for me” throughout the runtime makes it an instance of having to determine if what rang as false or annoying was simply a personal failing. And there’s certainly passion here: Dunham made her personal investment clear before the screening, noting how reading the young adult book by Karen Cushman as an alienated 10-year-old weirdo in 1996 was a life-transforming event. And speaking as one who was definitely a 10-year-old weirdo themselves, the passion is observed, if not totally felt.
Living in 13th-century England, Birdy (Bella Ramsey) is an obnoxious, opinionated, but also intelligent and animal-loving 14-year-old who causes quite the stir amongst all the adults in her life, including of course her exasperated father Sir Rollo (Andrew Scott) and mother Lady Aislinn (Billie Piper). With her family in need of money,...

God’s thumbs! Leave it to “Girls” creator Lena Dunham to deliver what’s been missing from the field of princess movies all these years: namely, permission for young women to be themselves, regardless of what their parents or the patriarchy might think. In many ways, movies — and YA movies in particular — double as a kind of socializing tool, encouraging audiences to be independent thinkers (on their surface) while in fact giving them the keys for conformity: Follow the rules, respect your elders, marry the right guy, and you’ll be rewarded with your happily ever after, they say. But that’s not independence; that’s indoctrination.
Adapted from Katherine Cushman’s 1994 novel, “Catherine Called Birdy” is a genially impertinent feature-length celebration of not always doing what you’re told. Set in 1290, at a time of infrequent baths and early-40s life expectancy, Dunham’s comedic take follows the creative...

Luis Felber’s life changed in January 2021 when a mutual friend set him up on a blind date with Lena Dunham. The Winchester, U.K.-born son of a North London Jewish businessman father and Peruvian painter mom, Felber was at first hesitant, having been in lockdown for most of the year, writing love songs on his iPhone for his group Atttawalpa.
“I wasn’t in a place where I was looking for love,” the 36-year-old musician explains, revealing he’d never seen an episode of “Girls,” though his mom and sister were big fans. “Covid wasn’t exactly the sexiest time to meet someone. We texted for two days before we hung out. We’re not one-word types… we throw our emotions at the phone and our fingertips

Netflix’s Resident Evil is kicking off a new era for the franchise on the small screen. After years of movie adaptations starring Milla Jovovich and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, the franchise is shifting gears to tell a story unlike any we’ve ever seen on the big screen or in the games. This new Resident Evil series ditches Chris and Claire Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, and Jill Valentine to tell a modern-day story about Albert Wesker and his family.
Starring the great Lance Reddick as the classic Resident Evil villain, the series not only gives us a complete reimagining of the character as a family man but also introduces us to his two teen daughters, Jade (Ella Balinska/Tamara Smart) and Billie (Adeline Rudolph/Siena Agudong), who have their own issues to deal with, like having to upend their whole lives to move with their father to...

When people began hearing Lily Meola’s name mentioned alongside that of Willie Nelson back in 2013, they were rightly impressed. The country music legend had given Meola, then only 20, his stamp of approval and recorded a duet with her for his album To All the Girls…. But Nelson’s imprimatur was a mixed blessing, setting expectations that Meola was a dyed-in-the-wool country singer. On her upcoming EP Daydream, she tosses those assumptions to the wind.

There are so many legendary aspects of The Sopranos that it’s hard to pick just one. Between masterful storytelling, deep character development, and uncanny acting, everything comes together to create a show that has been enjoyed for over two decades now. The most artistic aspect of the package, however, may just be the use of music, specifically the unique songs curated personally by creator David Chase that run during each episode’s end credits.
Ranging from oldies, foreign ballads, jazz compositions, and pure instrumentals, the variety is stunning and can keep you exploring the track list of the series for days. We’ve decided to narrow all of the end credit songs down to the best 15 in the series, listed in chronological order of airing. Enjoy!

On Jan. 28, the artist appeared on NPR's Tiny Desk Concert Series, but instead of performing from NPR host Bob Boilen's desk in Washington D.C., she rocked out in a tiny version of her bedroom.

It may sound obvious, but Orville Peck doesn’t particularly go for casual dress. The masked entertainer tends to complement his signature facial fringe with bright colors and rhinestones, nods to a bygone era of country music when the entertainers lived large and wore the clothes to prove it.
“That’s what I grew up loving,” Peck tells Rolling Stone. “I’m not the kind of guy who wants to go onstage in jeans and T-shirt and pretend that’s me being real, because the real me is someone larger than life.

Ben Cooper, a Western star of films and TV like “Johnny Guitar,” “Bonanza,” “Rawhide” and more, died in his sleep on Monday according to his nephew on the actor’s Facebook fan page. He was 86.
Cooper got his start in radio serials and on stage as a child actor before finding work as a boyish looking lead and supporting player on Westerns in both film and TV. He was best known for his role in the Nicholas Ray Western “Johnny Guitar” from 1954, where he played the bandit Turkey Ralston alongside Ernest Borgnine and Scott Brady.
Cooper’s first screen role came when he was 18 in the “Armstrong Circle Theatre,” and he followed that up with several TV appearances and roles in films from Republic Pictures such as “Thunderbirds,” “The Last Command” and “Duel at Apache Wells.”

He was best known for his role in the Nicholas Ray Western “Johnny Guitar” from 1954, where he played the bandit Turkey Ralston alongside Ernest Borgnine and Scott Brady.
Cooper’s first screen role came when he was 18 in the “Armstrong Circle Theatre,” and he followed that up with several TV appearances and roles in films from Republic Pictures such as “Thunderbirds,” “The Last Command” and “Duel at Apache Wells.”

In 2018, Greta Van Fleet released Anthem of the Peaceful Army, their first full-length album after two EPs that landed them three Grammy nominations and recognition from Robert Plant, Jack White and more. At the time of the album’s release, Rolling Stone critic Will Hermes said Michigan band “seem like they leapt fully-formed from the skull of a rock critic in 1975. There’s an element of the ridiculous in this. But there’s also a charm to their guileless, retro-fetishist conviction.”

Lana Del Rey broke out earlier this decade by updating the sound of 20th century indie acts like Cocteau Twins and Mazzy Star, but with much of the mystery leeched out. Lately she’s been shapeshifting a bit, and that’s a good thing. There was her cameo on Cat Power’s “Woman,” a left-field collaboration and solidarity anthem. Her latest, “Venice Bitch,” is a woozily epic love song invoking Norman Rockwell, fading summers, getting high, and “Crimson and Clover” (tho it’s unclear if she’s referring to the...

The following essay was produced as part of the 2018 Locarno Critics Academy, a workshop for aspiring film critics that took place during the Locarno Film Festival.
At the 71st Locarno Film Festival this week, several films explored themes of youth through narrative strategies that expand and complicate conventional coming-of-age tales. Chilean director Dominga Sotomayor’s second feature “Too Late to Die Young” is set in a semi-organised and very ramshackle community living in a forest above Santiago in 1990. Based on her own upbringing, the film recreates a dreamlike world of parched trees and Diy cabins.
Images are filtered by smoke and sunshine, and the soundtrack is a nostalgic mix of Mazzy Star and Sinead O’Connor. Its 16-year-old protagonist, appropriately named Sofía, appears wiser and older than her years. The film is on one hand a chronicle of Sofía’s first love, and on the other, an ensemble piece that...

On their two 2015 albums “Depression Cherry” and “Thank Your Lucky Stars,” Baltimore-spawned duo Beach House had crafted their strain of dreampop to such perfection that it felt like there were few stones left to unturn. The duo felt that as well — they said of this album, “We wanted to rethink old methods and shed some self-imposed limitations” — and their seventh full-length represents less a change of style than of mood. While their impressionist synth haze and Victoria Legrand’s breathy vocals remain at the forefront, “7” is darker, cloudier, crankier and more turbulent than most of what they’ve done before.
It’s almost the inverse of the transformation that most musical artists try to make, which is to graft a new musical style or element onto their usual template in an effort to seem contemporary (has anyone not heard enough trap beats on pop songs yet?). The album starts off...

No one loves a great scene more than the person who first dreamed it up -- the writer. We're asking iconic shows' creators and writers to tell Et all about getting to see their most cherished moment on their series make it from script to screen.
For Superstore creator and executive producer Justin Spitzer, it’s a standout moment at the end of season two, when a tornado hits the St. Louis-based Cloud 9 big-box store. The scene, an unexpected turn in the latter of episode’s storyline, is not only ambitious in size and scale -- the show destroys the store, after all -- but also what it does for the many characters, including Amy (America Ferrera) and Jonah (Ben Feldman), who finally kiss after two season of building flirtation and chemistry; devout Christian Glenn (Mark McKinney) praying to multiple gods; Dina (Lauren Ash) and Garrett (Colton Dunn) realizing there may be more to their relationship...

After the nearly three-hour journey Andrea Arnold brings you on in American Honey, even if you didn’t appreciate it as much as we did at Cannes, you’ll be walking out wanting to immediately play the soundtrack. Following a successful first weekend in limited release, if it’s not screening near you yet, you can partake in part of the adventure as the full soundtrack is now available to stream.
Featuring Lady Antebellum‘s title track, of course, there’s also other songs that also nearly act as setpieces from E-40, Mazzy Star, and Raury (used heavily in the marketing campaign). Not included in the official soundtrack are a few major tracks, including Rihanna‘s “We Found Love” and Bruce Springsteen‘s “Dream Baby Dream,” but most of the rest are there in the 19-song collection.
Stream it below with a hat tip to The Playlist.

American Honey — an upcoming road movie flick starring Shia Labeouf and newcomer Sasha Lane — has just released a new trailer that prominently features Bruce Springsteen's cover of Suicide's "Dream Baby Dream." The film centers around a teen runaway who teams up with a group of disaffected young people that travel the country selling magazine subscriptions. It's the first Us movie by British director Andrea Arnold and it picked up a lot of buzz when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

Earlier this week, I published my rave review of HBO's new miniseries The Night Of, and I'm going to put it into the weekly review rotation for its run, starting with thoughts on the first episode, coming up just as soon as I can name two Yankees headed for the Hall of Fame... "Am I really here?" -Naz Because "The Beach" has been available for a few weeks through HBO's On Demand and streaming services, I've gotten to see the early reactions to it, which tend to break down along three paths: 1)That was unbearable to watch because I felt so bad for Naz as his night out went so horribly awry; 2)That was unbearable to watch because Naz acted like such a complete idiot at every turn; 3)Even though I felt bad for Naz, and/or couldn't believe how stupid he kept being, I was riveted by the whole thing.

Welcome to the fourth installment of our summer trip through "The Sopranos" season 1. When I revisited early seasons of "The Wire," as well as the whole run of "Deadwood," I did separate versions of each review for newcomers and veterans, but over time realized that the newcomers weren't commenting much, if at all, and that it therefore made sense to simply do one review. Any significant spoilers for episodes beyond the one being reviewed will be contained in a separate section at the end of the review; so long as you avoid that, and the comments, you should be fine. Thoughts on the fourth episode, "Meadowlands," coming up just as soon as I take a five minute cool down period...

Hey DEADheads, I’m Ryne from The Moon is a Dead World with another week of horror television.

We’ll try to catch up soon, but here’s all of your favorite stuff. Shawn’s got True Blood and Falling Skies, Kevin‘s got Under the Dome, Teen Wolf, and The Strain, and I’ve got the rest.

Making a good mix tape takes some skill. Making a great mix tape is a work of art. In order to make a great mix you need to listen to a wide range of artists. You also need to consider the audience. In other words, who are you making the mix for? It’s always smart to select music that you are guaranteed meets the tastes of the listener, but it also good to experiment and include some tracks that they may have never heard otherwise. Creating a message with the mix is also a plus, and I personally love to add tons of movie clips as an added bonus. There has to be a specific flow as well. Pacing is essential in creating a mood (or moods), but you don’t want any of the juxtapositions to be too jarring. And as with any form of editing, you need...

The Paul Verhoeven filmography screens at the Tiff Bell Lightbox through April 4th, culminating in a screening of his new “crowdsourced” film, Tricked.
Common wisdom dictates that cynicism and sentimentality are carefully linked, if not outright synonymous. In filmic terms, the most comfortable formulation of that argument is to align, for instance, romantic comedies with socially-acceptable (and, often, utterly noxious) notions of gender politics. Through the deployment of relationships and character profiles that support popular notions of how women and men behave, these movies are able to exploit comfortable mores in order to mainline easy pathos. What’s less common is to consider how that relationship between affect and effect can be subverted, perhaps because it’s relatively rare for truly subversive artists to be handed the proverbial keys to the kingdom.

What do you write about a movie as ruthlessly, robotically dirty-minded as The To Do List? Here is a film so utterly committed to providing gross-out punchlines for its lewd, one-joke premise that it ends up stranding a talented cast with a painfully stiff, horrifically out-of-touch script that does more to enforce gender stereotypes than shatter them.
The film centers on gawky high-school valedictorian Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza), who attempts to complete a check-list of sexual experiences before heading off to college. Getting in her way though is the competing attentions of sweet and sensitive Cameron (Johnny Simmons) and dreamboat Rusty Waters (Scott Porter), who complicate Brandy’s studious and organized approach to intercourse.
My gut reaction to The To Do List was not revulsion but rather, disappointment. This comedy was meant to cement Plaza’s status as one of Hollywood’s most talented young comediennes, following two other terrific...
