The Melvins, who have a history of imaginative line-up changes, feature not one, but six different bass players on their appropriately titled new album, Basses Loaded (June 3, Ipecac Recordings). The collection features Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover joined by Nirvana’s Krist Novoselic, Redd Kross’ Steve McDonald, Butthole Surfers’ J.D. Pinkus, Big Business’ Jared Warren, Mr. Bungle/Fantomas’ Trevor Dunn (aka Melvins Lite) and Crover swapping the drum kit for bass in the Melvins 1983 iteration. The album’s nod to baseball, and the inclusion of the band’s own version of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” is a natural one, with Buzz and Dale often spotted at games across the country.

It's been just under a year since the release of her debut single 'Grow' saw her win over critics and audiences alike, and now British singer, Frances, releases new single 'Don't Worry About Me' on Capitol Records this March 9th. The follow-up to her acclaimed single 'Borrowed Time' (co-written with Howard Lawrence from Disclosure), 'Don't Worry About Me' is a stripped-back confessional that sees the artist's voice take centre-stage once again before building to a euphoric and monumental close. Speaking on the track, Frances says "I wrote this song about someone very close to me. It's my way of saying that it's my turn to be strong and brave for them now, just as they have been for me. You can watch / hear the new single below (click) Frances released her debut EP 'Grow' on Communion Records in June. Less than a year later and the young artist has solidified her status as one of 2016's fastest rising stars, sweeping up nominations for both the Brits Critics' Choice and BBC Sound of 2016 poll as well as recently selling out a headline show at Union Chapel. Now, Frances releases 'Don't Worry About Me' ahead of her first European headline tour this spring, (including a stop at London's KOKO) as well as confirmed appearances at SxSW and this year's Coachella, Blissfields, Festival No. 6 and Wildlife Festivals.

As the band explains - "Tracks is our first real attempt at an acoustic song, as we really wanted to be able to play with changing the dynamics of our live set around. The song is about maintaining a long distance relationship and the video has our friend Dottie showing the strains of being in a relationship with someone who's never there." The track is taken from ROAM’s debut album ‘Backbone’ which was released earlier this year via Hopeless Records. ROAM are currently on tour supporting Against The Current across Europe with a London date at Koko plotted for 21st March. Towards the end of last year, the band supported State Champs on their UK and European dates and played at the Vans Warped Tour UK at Alexandra Palace.

"Vulnicura is an album of heartbreak, but also of manic enlightenment" Crack Rough Trade 'Album Of The Year' One year on from the release of her Grammy nominated eighth studio album 'Vulnicura', independent Icelandic icon Bjork has been honoured with the award for 'Best International Female' at the Brits. This is Bjork's fifth Brit award and follows announcement that 'Vulnicura' has been named Rough Trade's Album Of The Year. https://twitter.com/bjork/status/702633226271985665 Heralding one of 2016’s most eagerly awaited releases, Meghan Trainor’s brand new single “NO” makes its world premiere today. This is the very first release from the GRAMMY® Award-winning multi-platinum pop superstar’s mega-anticipated second full-length album, Thank You [Epic Records]— available everywhere on Friday, May 13th, 2016. The album’s online pre-order goes live today and will grant an immediate download of “NO.” Pre-order it HERE. “NO” shows a different side of the singer altogether, illuminating the expanse and confidence inherent in her powerhouse voice while showing off her songwriting prowess. Strutting between a nineties-style hip-hop bounce and an untouchable and unshakable chorus, it’s a feisty, fiery, and fun anthem that’ll get everybody singing, “NO.” She teamed up with producer Ricky Reed [Jason Derulo, Pitbull, Twenty One Pilots] for the track. Thank You is executive produced by Meghan Trainor and Ricky Reed. The premiere of “NO” happens just weeks after Meghan’s win at the 2016 GRAMMY® Awards. She received the prestigious “Best New Artist” award, making for her first victory at the ceremony. She was also nominated for Best International Female at this year’s BRIT Awards. On the horizon, she’s nominated for a string of 2016 awards. At the iHeartRadio Music Awards where she will also perform, Meghan is up for “Female Artist of the Year” and “Best Collaboration” for “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” with John Legend. At the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, she received nods for “Favorite Female Singer” and “Favorite Collaboration” for “Like I’m Gonna Lose You.” Meghan continues to break records, make history, inspire countless fans, and change the landscape of pop music and culture. She began 2016 by winning “Favourite Album” for her chart-dominating RIAA platinum full-length debut, Title [Epic Records], at the 2016 People’s Choice Awards. Last year, Title not only went platinum in the UK, it also yielded four multiplatinum Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 smashes—“All About That Bass” (9x-platinum), “Lips Are Movin” (4x-platinum), “Dear Future Husband” (2x-platinum), and “Like I’m Gonna Lose You” [featuring John Legend] (2x-platinum). Title was the #5 most streamed album globally in 2015 and currently has over 900 million streams worldwide. Meghan also has over 2 billion video views on VEVO. Get “NO” on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.
