Tom Morello, Amanda Palmer, Speedy Ortiz, Kimya Dawson, and more have signed an open letter calling for the restoration of net neutrality, stressing the benefits of an open internet for artists.
Net neutrality, as initially codified during the Obama administration in 2015, broadly established regulations for a more open, accessible internet: The rules ensured that internet providers couldn’t do things like restrict access to certain content, slow or accelerate connection speeds, or hamstring connectivity for customers who didn’t pay a premium fee.
Those rules were scrapped during the Trump administration,...

Soul Glo serve up a rendition of System of a Down’s “Soil” in the Philadelphia hardcore band’s installment of the “Song That Found Me At The Right Time” series.
The series, a partnership between Sounds of Saving and 988 Suicide + Crisis Lifeline, features an artist covering a track that helped guide them through a difficult time. For Soul Glo’s Pierce Jordan, that song is the System of a Down classic about that band coming to terms with a friend who died by suicide.

Immediately after the podcast La Brega launched in February of 2021, it was met with rave reviews from listeners and critics alike. The first season of the show — co-produced by Futuro Studios and Wnyc — focused on historical and sociopolitical events that have shaped Puerto Rico over the past few decades. The storytelling struck a chord both with locals living on the archipelago and Puerto Ricans in the diaspora — and the program also drew in non-Puerto Ricans, who have been enthralled by the meticulous reporting showcased in each episode.

Xenia Rubinos is anything but the life of the New Year’s Eve party in the new video for “Did My Best,” directed by Mario Rubén Carrión.
Rubinos appears to be festive — decked out in a sparkly dress and tiara — but she’s alienated and desperately wants to leave the celebration. She puts on her fur coat and nearly jumps off the rooftop as fireworks shoot into the sky, but then is seen driving a car. She ultimately ends up with a bouquet of roses at the beach, walking into the ocean.

Feel free to blast these songs as you pre-game for the next protest against anti-Black violence and police brutality — or alternatively, as you direct money towards jail support and mutual aid funds from the safety of your own home.

Futuristic NYC avant-rockers Battles have announced the upcoming release of their fourth album, Juice B Crypts. Due in October via Warp, the record finds the band scaling back to the duo of guitarist-keyboardist Ian Williams and drummer John Stanier, following the departure of bassist Dave Konopka in 2018. Much like the group’s second LP, 2011’s Gloss Drop, Juice B Crypts will feature a wealth of guest vocalists; one of those singers, Sal Principato of NYC dance-punk pioneers Liquid Liquid, appears on new single “Titanium 2 Step.”
