What would you be willing to risk for some live music? Scientists in Germany will be holding an indoor concert next month as a giant COVID-19 experiment. On August 22nd, 4,000 concert goers will head to a concert hall in Leipzig to watch pop artist Tim Bendzko. The volunteers, aged between 18 and 50, will be asked to wear a chain around their neck with a “contact” tracer that sends out a signal to detect movement and the amount of people they come in contact with. They’ll also be given hand-sanitizer that will be traceable through UV lights after the… Read more »
At the beginning of this crazy pandemic, we watched celebrities try and make things better by giving us their cringy rendition of John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’. Their intentions were good but it just didn’t bring the world together like they thought it would. However, Billie Joe Armstrong is coming through with a John Lennon cover that punches us with some power. John Lennon released ‘Gimme Some Truth‘ as his form of protest in 1971 during the Vietnam War. Armstrong has added his own take to the song to make it relevant to the protest and calls for reform happening today. He… Read more »
Basslines and Protest Signs is Brett Callwood’s column looking at the intersection of music and politics. This week talks about Trump’s recent sharing of a video with a white supremacist message, on the same day as the BET Awards.
The Inbox Jukebox brings you fresh new tunes and bands. This week features tracks from Bohnes, Midnight Kids feat. 90’s Kids, Kyyan Palmer, and Ella Isaacson x Gallant.

…This is the Inbox Jukebox: The Wrecks – “Out of Style” The Wrecks are about to get you into trouble. “Out of Style” is a bubbling bouncy belligerent middle-finger type of bop (and your hands are about to go up in the air). So much ‘mosh’ in the lyrics, so much boom in that bassline, so much buzz in the sonics—handclaps are inevitable. Your neighbors will be pounding on your door, but you’ll be yelling “bring that beat back” while they fume. This is alt-rock on fire. Burn, babies, burn. — Hunter & The Bear – “Digital Light” Get ready for… Read more »
There’s something inherently off-putting about clowns—the creepy over-exaggerated smiles, the unnatural make-up—but they’re generally supposed to be a sign of fun and happiness. Which is why indie band Circa Waves decided clowns would be the perfect symbol for their upcoming release Sad Happy. “A clown was always an image we thought represented [the album] quite well,” says vocalist/guitarist Kieran Shudall. “Sad Happy is two stark emotions stuck together—I find clowns ultimately terrify people or make them really happy.” When I catch up with Shudall he’s sitting in his Liverpool home with a fresh cup of tea. “It’s very British of… Read more »
