Billy Corgan has shared a theory on why rock music lost its dominance in mainstream culture, asserting that the genre was "purposely dialed down" starting in the late 1990s. Speaking on his podcast, The Magnificent Others, Corgan described witnessing a sudden "gravity shift" at outlets like MTV around 1997 or 1998, where rock was sidelined in favor of other genres despite remaining a top cultural force at the time.

Corgan noted a "schism" in the modern landscape, where rock remains a leading ticket-selling genre in the Western world yet receives minimal representation in the broader cultural conversation. While acknowledging the quality of the artists that rose to prominence during this shift, he argued that there was an overt effort to reduce the ability of rock stars to have a voice. He even referenced theories suggesting external involvement in these shifts, though he admitted such details were above his "pay grade."

Twisted Sister has officially named former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach as their guest vocalist for a series of upcoming reunion performances. The announcement follows the recent resignation of Dee Snider, who stepped away from the group in February 2026 citing physical ailments, including degenerative arthritis and heart concerns, that prevent him from performing at his signature high intensity.

In a social media statement released today, March 3rd, the band confirmed that Bach will join founding members Jay Jay French and Eddie Ojeda for select dates this fall. Snider has reportedly given the arrangement his full blessing, expressing his hope that the band continues to thrive. The 2026 lineup is rounded out by drummer Joe "Seven" Franco and bassist Russell Pzütto, as the group prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary milestone.

In a new interview with El Cuartel Del Metal, Suicidal Tendencies frontman Mike Muir shared his thoughts on the rise of AI-generated music. Muir expressed a "humanistic" concern, arguing that while technology offers shortcuts, "the journey is more important than the end result". He noted that overcoming obstacles and the process of adaptation are what fuel true creativity, warning that relying on buttons for instant results could eliminate some of the greatest human achievements.

Beyond the technology debate, Muir reflected on the long-standing philosophy of Suicidal Tendencies, comparing their discography to chapters in a book where no two are the same. He emphasized that the band prioritizes personal growth and musical "spices" over mainstream appeal, even if it takes years for some listeners to appreciate new sounds. Following their 2025 run with Metallica, the band remains active with a lineup featuring members like Tye Trujillo and Jay Weinberg, continuing to focus on a path of constant evolution.

Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach has opened up about his spiritual journey, stating in a recent interview, "I'm a full-blown believer now." The singer revealed that his path toward faith was heavily influenced by his long-standing friendships with Korn’s Brian "Head" Welch and P.O.D.’s Sonny Sandoval, whom he credited for their consistent support and examples of Christian living.

Shaddix explained that his transition to Christianity wasn't an overnight event but a "slow burn" that eventually led him to a place of surrender. He noted that while he previously struggled with the "religious" aspects of faith, he has now found a personal connection that has impacted his sobriety and overall outlook on life. Shaddix emphasized that he remains committed to his music and his band, viewing his platform as a way to share his experiences with honesty.

Justin Timberlake is taking legal action to keep the body camera footage of his 2024 drunken driving arrest from being released to the public. In a lawsuit filed on Monday, March 2, against the village of Sag Harbor and its police department, Timberlake's attorneys argued that the video would subject him to "public ridicule and harassment" if disseminated by media outlets.

JT was charged with a DWI in June 2024 after being pulled over while driving in Sag Harbor, Long Island. He struck a deal after agreeing to plead guilty to a noncriminal driving while impaired traffic violation.

Today, March 3, 2026, marks the 45th birthday of Tobias Forge, the mastermind behind the Swedish rock phenomenon Ghost. This milestone birthday comes at a pivotal turning point for the artist, following the emotional conclusion of the Skeletour World Tour just last week in Los Angeles.

In recent interviews, Forge revealed that he is officially "stepping away" from Ghost for an indefinite period to focus on his wife and children, noting that after 15 years of constant touring and recording, he "physically and mentally needs to be home". While Ghost is moving into a hiatus, Forge remains creatively active; he has confirmed work on two upcoming film projects and a non-Ghost-related album that was recorded prior to the tour. As fans celebrate his 45th year, the future of the Clergy remains a "big question mark," with Forge emphasizing that he needs this break to find fresh inspiration for the band's next chapter.

Caleb Shomo of Beartooth has deleted his official Instagram account following intense online scrutiny over the band’s latest single, "Free". The track, which serves as Beartooth’s first release under Fearless Records, sparked a wave of targeted harassment after the music video debuted a dramatic shift in Shomo’s visual presentation. According to reports, the abuse spilled over onto the social media pages of Shomo’s family members, prompting the frontman to step away from the platform.

Adding to the tension, Attila frontman Chris Fronzak weighed in on the situation with a series of divisive posts on X (formerly Twitter). Fronzak joked that Shomo had "dropped the 'S'" from his name—a remark many fans interpreted as a homophobic slur—before later dismissing the backlash by calling critics "soft". Fronzak further alleged that the music industry is "brainwashed" and claimed major labels often force artists to fit specific "narratives". Despite the controversy, Shomo previously described the new song as the start of a deeply personal and honest chapter, reflecting the "emotional roller coaster" of his soul.
