A couple of weeks ago imperishable rock star and political activist NEIL YOUNG
said in a press release that a 2nd LP with The Chrome Hearts was in the making.

Young who cancelled all his planned concerts for this summer gave more details
regarding the upcoming album via an update on his Archives website. He revealed
that 3 of the songs were written more than 60 years ago.

Young: “It’s quite a special album to me. Music is a gift and when it comes
like this I really feel it. Everything here feels so good. I hope you will agree.”

He goes on to say that the album includes five news song, noting
they recorded four on day one in the studio, and the fifth on day two.

“We were then out of songs. We needed more. The next morning I had a song going
through my head and was playing it. I checked it out in the archives and found it was
from 1963, unreleased.”

“There were three more. I found the three others with it, also
unreleased. Three 60 year old songs and five brand new ones!”

Yep, that’s some more details, but the album’s title and exact
release date (somewhere this summer) is still unknown.

First album with The Chrome Hearts, named
Talkin’ To The Trees was released last year,
in June.

RAMONES – New York’s Punk Pioneers RAMONES Released Game Changing Debut Album 50 Years Ago Today

Posted on by JL

Significant longplayers from yesteryear

23 April 2026

The New York punk pioneers RAMONES (1974 – 1964 / 14 studio albums)
released their self-titled debut LP on 23 April 1976, today 50 years ago.

All 4 original members Joey, Tommy, Dee Dee,
and Johnny are already gone. R.I.P.

The New York Times said back then: “What the Ramones do is deliver a nonstop
set of short, brisk, monochromatically intense songs. Conventional considerations of
pace and variety are thrown calculatedly to the winds. The ingredients are simplicity
itself. The effect in the end amounts to an abstraction of rock so pure that other
associations get left behind.”

TUTV: In my punk book, this gabba gabba hey debut was a game-changer.
Turning bubblegum pop into sickly catchy and speeding blitzkrieg electricity
was just jaw-dropping. Without a shadow of a doubt, da brudders’ best exploit.
A timeless document in rock history. Hail hail!

TRICKY Will Launch His 15th Album ‘DIFFERENT WHEN IT’S SILENT’ In July – Discover First Single ‘OUT OF PLACE’

Posted on by JL

23 April 2026

Tired of his limited role with Massive Attack, trip-hop bigwig TRICKY (born Adrian
Nicholas Matthews Thaws in Bristol-UK 58 years ago) wanted to do his own thing.

So, 31 years ago (I know, sounds like ages), he
left MA and started his significant solo career.

On July 17th, he will launch his 15th full-length.
It’s named Different When It’s Silent. Tracklist
and pre-order info here.

Press info: “‘Different When It’s Silent’ follows a prolific period of activity. Since 2020’s ‘Fall to Pieces’ LP, Tricky has released music under several different guises, all via his own label, ‘False Idols’. Yet returning to an album under his own name took on a different shape. For Tricky it was another side project, until ehis manager Alan McGee felt the songs clearly belonged to a Tricky record.’

Tricky (who lost his daughter Mina, who took her own life, in 2019) : “Since my daughter died, I want to work. I want to do stuff. But all the press, being on camera, everything just changed when she died. I’ve never been a pop star as such but: that made me even more
want to go in the background.”

In 2020, he released his heart-wrenching LP Fall To Pieces that dealt with his terrible loss.

“Emotionally, I’m saying I’m ready to start my life again. I’m looking forward to touring. I want to record. I was emotionally paralysed. Now I’m moving again. And sonically, this lets people know: if you have your own sound, you’ll never go out of fashion. When genres come and go, you’ll still be there. This album says that – nothing sounds like it.”

The lead single is titled OUT OF PLACE and features
his collaborator of late, Marta Zlakowska, on vocals.

THE ROLLING STONES Released Drugs-Fueled Rock Classic ‘STICKY FINGERS’ Today 55 Years Ago

Posted on by JL

Signicificant longplayers from yesteryear

23 April 2026

Rock giants THE ROLLING STONES released their 9th album,
titled STICKY FINGERS on 23 April 1971, today 55 years ago.

It topped the charts in the UK, US, Canada
and several European countries.


Back sleeve

AllMusic/Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote in retrospect: “Pieced together
from outtakes and much-labored-over songs, Sticky Fingers manages to have a
loose, ramshackle ambience that belies both its origins and the dark
undercurrents of the songs.

It’s a weary, drug-laden album, well over half the songs explicitly mention
drug use, while the others merely allude to it. With its offhand mixture of
decadence, roots music, and outright malevolence, Sticky Fingers set the
tone for the rest of the decade for the Stones.”

But I wanna know for sure
Come on and hold me tight
I love you”

WHOLES – Belgian Raucous Artillery Resonate In ‘THE MOMENT’

Daily electricity to load your batteries

Band: WHOLES
Who: Raucous noise outfit led by Belgian, musical chameleon Wolf Vanwymeersch,
who played with several bands (pop, rock, sludge metal) and released a pure singer-songwriter pearl with solo debut album The Early Years back in 2022.

Wholes are “what remains after a soul has been detonated, what
struck those around it, what could no longer be contained”.

Last year, the band scored big time with their heart-wrenching debut album, named
A Mass In The Water. One of the best 10 LPs of 2025 according to TUTV‘s ears: “It’s a
both scary and flabbergasting opus about Wolf’s father’s suicide. It takes a lot of courage to make and share this soul-crushing experience with the world.”

New single: THE MOMENT

TUTV: Frontman Wolf told us that this new tune is not as dark as the previous ones,
even a teeny bit romantic with a line that goes like this “If our eyes lock for a second,
we’ll share an eternity”.

Besides that lovey-dovey line, The Moment sounds actually more like a brain-breaking nightmare, motorized by about 100 guitars and Wolf‘s ghostly vocals. It progresses
like a slow-burning torch that will, eventually, extinguish in the end. Spooky and
chilling if you ask me. Not really a whole lotta love here.
