What’s happening

Jack Osbourne has fired back at critics and entertainment journalists following a wave of online speculation regarding his recent weight loss. The controversy ignited after photos surfaced of the 40-year-old media personality visiting Capitol Hill alongside his mother, Sharon Osbourne, prompting online trolls and media outlets to run speculative headlines questioning his physical health and accusing him of rapid weight-loss drug use. In a fiery video response, Osbourne directly addressed the narrative, clarifying that his physical transformation is the result of long-term dedication rather than a sudden health crisis or quick-fix medications.

"I've been consistently but slowly losing weight for the last three and a half years," Osbourne explained, noting that he reached 220 pounds before deciding to overhaul his lifestyle. Standing at 5-foot-8.5 and weighing 155 pounds, he emphasized that his current frame is perfectly healthy and driven by rigorous physical discipline. "My entire life, I was just brutalized by the press about being overweight. And the fact that I get down to a healthy weight, now I'm criticized even more? Get f*ed. This is why no one trusts the press." Osbourne capped off his defense by challenging a prominent gossip journalist to join him for an open mat session at his jiu-jitsu gym to see firsthand how hard he trains, demanding that critics stop hiding behind screens to police his body.

The escalating war of words between mgk and Yungblud has taken a sharp turn, with Yungblud's camp officially firing back at a series of highly personal online attacks. The public fallout intensified after Yungblud shared a video advocating for affordable concert experiences via his upcoming Bludfest project, noting that live music has become financially inaccessible for young fans. The post prompted a blistering, since-deleted Instagram comment from mgk, who accused the British artist of hypocrisy regarding ticket prices and his previous 2025 tour cancellation. "You cancelled a tour because you couldn't sell tickets blamed it on mental health then got parazzi'd [sic] at Nobu the next day Pinocchio," mgk reportedly wrote, cap-stoning the rant by calling him a "silver spooned preachy wanker."

In an exclusive statement delivered to TMZ, representatives for Yungblud thoroughly condemned the rapper's comments, particularly his decision to target the singer's well-being. "To weaponise somebody's mental health in a public space like this is incredibly disappointing," the rep stated, reinforcing that Yungblud has always been transparent about his personal struggles with exhaustion and mental health. The statement also flatly denied mgk's underlying claim that low ticket sales drove the previous live adjustments, clarifying that "there were multiple legitimate factors behind those decisions, both personal and logistical, and suggesting otherwise is simply false."

As for the artist himself, Yungblud’s team made it clear he won't be trading direct insults or stalling his current momentum to keep the online feud alive. "Dom has not commented directly as he is so busy focusing on his sold-out North American tour and finishing his next album," his representative concluded. "He genuinely hasn’t got time to engage in any of this but we wish MGK the very best." The bitter public divide marks a stunning collapse for a duo that was once practically inseparable, having served as core collaborators and focal points alongside Travis Barker during the height of the modern pop-punk revival era.

After sparking massive breakup fears among their global fanbase just over two weeks ago, Greta Van Fleet has officially put the rumors to rest by announcing an incredibly rare, highly intimate pop-up performance in New York City. On Wednesday, May 27th, the Grammy-winning rock revivalists will take the stage at the legendary Bowery Ballroom, an under-play setting with a maximum capacity of just 575 people. To keep things entirely fair and old-school, tickets for the exclusive event will cost just $20, including all fees, and will completely bypass online vendors.

Fans looking to witness the band's official return to the stage will have to line up in person at the venue's physical box office (6 Delancey St, New York, NY 10002) beginning at 9:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday, May 26th. The venue has outlined strict parameters for the box office event: sales are cash-free (accepting only physical credit/debit cards or tap-to-pay), limited to two physical tickets per person on a first-come, first-served basis, and wristbands will be distributed to prevent line-cutting. The show carries a 16+ age restriction unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Given the band's usual arena-sized draw, massive lines are expected to form well ahead of the box office opening.

All six members of the Foo Fighters sat down together for a chaotic appearance on the web show Hot Ones Versus, taking on a five-round game of personal truth-or-dare involving ultra-spicy chicken wings. Under the rules of the game, members posed burning personal questions to one another; an honest answer allowed them to skip the heat, while a refusal or a lie forced them to eat a wing. The high-stakes interrogation resulted in several major revelations, including frontman Dave Grohl confirming the existence of a legendary, unreleased Foo Fighters rap track titled “That Ass,” which he noted will likely never be released to the public. Grohl also candidly recalled suffering from a severe bout of diarrhea after drinking tap water in Slovenia right before a concert.

The legendary frontman didn't stop there, sharing a memorable email exchange with the late David Bowie. After Grohl reached out to pitch a potential film soundtrack collaboration, Bowie declined, stating it wasn't a good fit. When Grohl sent a polite follow-up note thanking him anyway, Bowie humorously replied, “Well, that’s settled then. Now fuck off.” The rest of the episode featured plenty of band camaraderie, from guitarist Pat Smear blanking on actress Jenna Ortega’s name to Grohl identifying his 2005 track "D.O.A." as containing his most cringeworthy lyric. The appearance marks their first full-band feature on the show following their latest album, Your Favorite Toy. The rock icons are currently preparing for a major stadium tour alongside Queens of the Stone Age, kicking off this August following a headlining slot at the BottleRock festival in Napa Valley.

Mongolian Hunnu Rock breakout force The Hu has officially announced their highly anticipated third full-length studio album, HUN, scheduled to drop on July 24 via Better Noise Music. Alongside the album reveal, the band—comprising Galaa, Jaya, Enkush, and Temka—released a hypnotic new lead single titled "Lost Soul," featuring guest vocals from Jonny Hawkins, frontman of American rock band Nothing More. The track marks the very first collaborative effort between the gold-certified global phenomenon and Nothing More, pairing traditional Mongolian throat singing, horsehead fiddle (morin khuur), and native instrumentation with Hawkins’ soaring English-sung melodies.

Musically, "Lost Soul" blends a heavy, percussive groove and a driving guitar riff with a melodic refrain as Hawkins croons the infectious chorus, "Born to be a lost soul." The track acts as a seamless volley between cultures, carrying a universal message of resiliency, fortitude, and strength in the face of life's obstacles. Commenting on the track, bandmember Galaa stated, "Hunnu Rock transcends through culture... To be not lost on your life journey, not losing your values, and having the courage to face life's obstacles are messages we are sending our fans." Hawkins added, "I am so excited to team up with a band as committed to their craft as The Hu. It's unlike anything I've done before." Pre-orders for the full-length record and streams for the new single are live today across all major digital platforms.

Guitarist John 5 has revealed that he has not spoken to his former employer and longtime creative partner Rob Zombie since leaving his band to join Mötley Crüe nearly four years ago. Speaking on a recent episode of the Thinking About Guitar podcast, the virtuoso guitarist opened up about the silence between the two musicians, which follows a celebrated 17-year working relationship that included five studio albums and hundreds of live performances. Despite the lack of communication, John 5 maintained that there is no animosity on his end, stating, "I haven't spoken to Rob, unfortunately. Of course, I miss him. And 17 years [together] and I love him. And I wish nothing but the best for him. But I have no ill will towards Rob Zombie whatsoever."

John 5 officially exited Zombie’s lineup in the fall of 2022 to step in for founding Mötley Crüe guitarist Mick Mars. While Zombie was reportedly disappointed but understanding at the time, John 5 previously admitted he was hesitant to reach out afterward out of fear of receiving no response. Reflecting on his decision to switch camps, the guitarist defended his move as a personal bucket-list desire rather than a professional slight. "Life is short and I want to experience as much as possible," he explained. "Me and Rob had such a special bond and we work so well together... We never had a negative word between us. He's just the greatest. But I just wanted to experience this. And I know that might be selfish, but I just didn't want to have this pass by." Both musicians remain heavily active on the touring circuit, with Mötley Crüe launching their "Return of the Carnival of Sins" tour this summer, while Zombie prepares for a co-headlining summer trek alongside Marilyn Manson.

Legendary filmmaker, composer, and musician John Carpenter has officially announced Cathedral, an ambitious multimedia project consisting of his debut graphic novel and a matching companion studio album. Set to be released this August, Carpenter is promising the record will stand as his heaviest musical work to date. To celebrate the announcement, the horror mastermind dropped the premiere single, "Lords of the Underground," a track that blends a chugging heavy metal rhythm section with ghostly synth accents and his signature, disorienting piano melodies. The graphic novel is scheduled for an August 4th release via Storm King Comics, with the album following on August 7th through Sacred Bones Records.

The concept for Cathedral originated from a vivid, cinematic dream Carpenter had in 2024. Developed alongside his wife and long-time producing partner, Sandy King, the narrative centers on an abandoned downtown Los Angeles church where the murder of a police officer draws an investigative team deep into subterranean catacombs, unearthing a centuries-old imprisoned evil. To bring the visual side to life, the duo collaborated with writer Sean Sobczak and a premier artistic team including illustrators Federico De Luca and Luis Guaragna.

Musically, the tracks are meticulously sequenced to coincide with specific chapters of the graphic novel. Carpenter tracked the record alongside his core backing bandmates—his son Cody Carpenter on synthesizers and guitarist Daniel Davies. Davies noted that the narrative heavily dictated the sonics, pushing them into heavy riff territory that naturally evolved into their first true metal record. Despite the direct storytelling ties, Carpenter emphasized that the music is designed to stand completely on its own, intending for listeners to put the record on and vividly imagine their own movie playing out.

English progressive rock titans Muse have officially released their latest single, "Hexagons," via Warner Records. Driven by a sprawling, signature synthesizer arpeggio sequence and frontman Matthew Bellamy's sweeping falsetto, the track heavily mirrors the grandiose, space-rock style of the band's landmark 2006 album Black Holes and Revelations. Lyrically, the song tackles thematic concepts of deep cosmic isolation and failed societal rebellion, featuring an epic, driving chorus where Bellamy belts, "Reach out, touch me / Draw me from the sixth dimension."

"Hexagons" serves as the third official glimpse into the band's highly anticipated 10th studio album, The WOW! Signal, directly following previous singles "Cryogen" and "Be With You." Deeply inspired by outer space and cosmic anomalies, the full-length record is scheduled to arrive globally on June 26th. To support the new record cycle, Muse will embark on a lengthy 2026 North American arena and amphitheater tour later this year. The band will be joined on the road by special guests Bloc Party and Portugal. The Man, with standard and VIP tickets currently available on all major primary ticketing platforms.

Swedish melodic death metal pioneers Arch Enemy and Michigan extreme metal mainstays The Black Dahlia Murder have officially joined forces to co-headline the "Wrath Across North America Tour" this autumn. The heavy-hitting billing features a diverse lineup of international talent, with support coming from Greek symphonic death metal masters Septicflesh, Brazilian death metal quartet Crypta, and California-based metalcore unit Thrown Into Exile opening the show. Arch Enemy guitarist Michael Amott celebrated the announcement, stating, "An exceptional lineup, built for those who live and breathe pure fucking metal! We look forward to bringing you a new era of Arch Enemy to a city near you."

The highly anticipated tour marks a significant milestone for Arch Enemy, offering North American audiences their first opportunity to witness the band live with their new frontwoman, Lauren Hart (formerly of Once Human). Hart was officially named the group's new lead vocalist earlier this year following the departure of long-time singer Alissa White-Gluz. The Black Dahlia Murder drummer Alan Cassidy shared his excitement for the package, adding, “I’d take my arch enemy to see The Black Dahlia Murder and Arch Enemy!…Then throw them in the pit." Official VIP packages will go live this Wednesday, May 20th at 10:00 a.m. local time, followed by localized venue presales on Thursday, May 21st, and the general public on-sale this Friday, May 22nd.

The Warning has officially dropped their highly anticipated new single, "Ego." The explosive track features the Mexican sister trio delivering a commanding performance sung entirely in Spanish, driven by heavy, intricate guitar riffs and their signature propulsive rhythmic groove. "Ego" arrives as the direct follow-up to their March breakout hit, "Kerosene," which is currently climbing the charts and sitting comfortably in the top 15 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. The new material continues the massive creative momentum the band established with their critically acclaimed 2024 full-length studio album, Keep Me Fed, which spawned the major active rock radio single "S!CK."

The new single lands during an incredibly busy touring season for Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal. The band is currently crisscrossing the United States as the primary opening act on a major nationwide arena and theater tour alongside Yungblud. In addition to their heavy supporting schedule, The Warning is preparing to take center stage for an exclusive, special headlining concert in New York City this June, which is already expected to play to a sold-out crowd.

The Offspring has officially announced a pair of exclusive, highly specialized summer concerts completely dedicated to their early catalog and lesser-played fan favorites. Dubbed "Just the Punk Stuff!," the two-night event is a direct response to a massive influx of online fan requests demanding that the group revisit their foundational material. The band will play Le Capitole in Quebec City on August 3rd, followed by a performance at MTELUS in Montreal on August 5th. The setlists for these specific dates will completely deviate from their standard arena rotations, focusing strictly on their raw, old-school roots and deep punk cuts.

In a statement addressing the announcement, the band explained, “Amongst the ‘billions’ of comments on our socials, we keep seeing more and more requests for the deep cuts—the ‘Punk Stuff’ that we don’t usually play in our regular set. ‘Play your old shit!’ We see it over and over again. And we hear you.” General public ticket sales are scheduled to launch this Friday, May 22nd at 10:00 a.m. ET via Ticketmaster, with localized presales opening as early as Wednesday, May 20th. Outside of these rare club dates, the band is heavily booked on the global festival circuit, spanning European events in June and major fall US appearances at Sea.Hear.Now, Aftershock, and Mission Bayfest.
