Online “influencer” and accused human trafficker Andrew Tate is upset at the 2024 Summer Olympics. Not because his favorite teams or athletes aren’t performing well, nor is it because he maybe lost some money betting on the games, no that would be normal.

When a band is so influential that they’re often considered one of the founding pillars of an entire subgenre, that’s a big fucking deal. But when they’re so big that they’re credited with a style of music that most people wouldn’t really associate them with, then you know that’s a massive band. Apparently, All That…

You ever have someone go to apologize for something they said or did but when they began talking, you realized they weren’t really apologizing? Like it was an apology but a half-hearted one?

When it comes to sexy, yet melancholy songs from the late ’80s, there are few songs that beat Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game.” Shit just dives off the deep end in terms of emotions, which I know some of our readership doesn’t like to admit they have. Earlier today, Houston-based…

Long Island City, once a gritty industrial enclave in Queens, NYC, has succumbed to the steamroller of gentrification. High-rises sprout like weeds where factories once stood.

Hi? Hey? Hello? How are you? If you’re breathing and own a phone, a sleazy slide into your DMs is as certain as sunrise in the East.

What’s more metal than coming back from the dead?! I don’t even mean this in a religious way, but that’s a whole other story.

The “Age of Loneliness” slinks in, shadows lengthening – despite our digital dazzle. Social media and remote work, while spinning webs worldwide, spawn shallow ties and scant face-to-face.
