NEW MUSIC ALERT! CHVRCHES ‘My Enemy’ ft. Matt from the National
Chvrches continue the march to their new album ‘Love is Dead’ with the release today of a duet with Matt Berninger of the National called ‘My Enemy’. It lyrically continues the break-up vibes of the most recent track from the album ‘Get Out’ (you can hear that below) and it has this soft delivery but if you listen the two characters in this do not seem to feel the same way about each other anymore. So yeah if you got dumped around Valentine’s Day, well here’s your emo dance jams.
Check out the full track list for ‘Love is Dead’ here. No release date just yet, but we’ll share it as soon as it becomes available.
Blink-182 boycott Fed-Ex over the NRA
In the wake of the tragic mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, many businesses like major airlines and car rental companies are ending agreements with the National Rifle Association due to public demand, now that movement has made it way into music with Blink-182.
Blink’s Mark Hoppus announced on Twitter yesterday that they will no longer be working with shipping company Fed-Ex if the company continues it’s relationship with the NRA.
.@fedex has chosen to continue its business relationship with the NRA, despite its board member pushing conspiracies against children who survived Parkland. I've directed our representatives to stop using them, and encourage you to do the same. #BoycottFedEx
— snddoɥ ʞɹɐɯ (@markhoppus) February 27, 2018
.@FedEx very disappointed to learn you still work with the NRA, whose board member pushes conspiracy theories against children who endured a mass shooting. Please reconsider your position or we will take our business elsewhere.
— snddoɥ ʞɹɐɯ (@markhoppus) February 24, 2018
Hoppus made this proclamation on Tuesday, following Fed-Ex releasing a statement on Monday about how they were going to continue to work with the NRA despite public pressure to stop doing so. “FedEx has never set or changed rates for any of our millions of customers around the world in response to their politics, beliefs, or position on issues,” the shipping company said in a statement. Fed-Ex noted that the NRA was one of “hundreds of organizations” that are in their alliances/associate marketing program, and the shipping titan will not discriminate against them.
Thank You For Everything Matt Forte
Even though Matt Forte spent his last two seasons in New York, the legendary running back has announced his immediate retirement from the NFL with a special note to Bears fans.
He leaves his mark with a total of 9,796 yards and 54 rushing touchdowns. Check out his interview on the subject HERE
“…to all Chicago Bears fans, you’re truly the best fans in all of professional sports. Thank you for embracing my family and me from day one! The roar of the crowd at Soldier Field as I’d break a run or make a big catch will forever be ingrained in my mind. The past 25 years playing America’s game have left me with unparalleled joy. But, it’s time for the workhorse to finally rest in his stable. While my heart is a bit heavy as I close this chapter of my life, I am excited about what the future holds. God Bless and Bear Down!”
Thank you for everything #22,
<3 @laurenoneil

STP film in the works.
Showtime is planning a Stone Temple Pilots film. Kevin Sevener, a VP at the network, said ‘not a lot has been done about the band’ and that it will be ‘a compelling story.’ With STP’s history, that won’t be a hard promise to fulfill. From break ups, to side projects like Army of Anyone, to Chester Bennington taking over as the lead singer, the band has been through a lot. The fact that we lost both Chester and Scott Weiland and the band is still going with new lead singer Jeff Gutt is probably enough to fill a film on it’s own.
It sounds like Showtime is planning a few films like this that will focus on bands/music. See more at BroadcastingCable.com.
As for STP, they have their first album with Jeff Gutt behind the mic set for March 16th. Here’s one of the tracks from that album…
Oooo Girl! MGMT bring ‘Electric Feel’ to CBS’s ‘Late Show’
Fresh off the release of their new album and two shows in Chicago this weekend, alt dance duo MGMT perform their latest single ‘Me & Michael’ as well as their enduring hit ‘Electric Feel’ on the ‘Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ on CBS last night.
The second performance was a special one as it featured John Batiste and Stay Human, and Colbert express his personal love for ‘Electric Feel’ stating it was song they would consistently play for the studio audience during commerical breaks. It was given a jazzy horn dusting from the Late Show band, and this live version really feels out the middle section of the song so much that really feels like a rousing hip-shaking conclusion at the end.
Watch American Celebs in weird Japanese commercials
Sometimes American celebs feel off about endorsing a product in a commercial, or at least they feel reluctant do so on TV here in the States or in Europe. Enter Japan, where several popular actors like Nicolas Cage and Arnold Schwarzenegger have appeared in madcap spots selling soft drinks and other things we don’t get see here.
Good Mythical Morning’s Rhett and Link take on this trans-pacific pop culture conundrum, and they quiz each other on what might happen in these commercials with Britney Spears, Sylvester Stallone, Cage, Arnold, and more. It’s just eye-opening to see what these celebs do in these off-the-wall commercials. It’s all a head-spinner but you also have to appreciate the sense of humor and the unique way they pitch a product in these commercials.
It does remind me of that classic Simpsons episode where Homer finds his likeness is being used to sell laundry detergent called ‘Mr. Sparkle’.
Naked Guy Rides ATV Down Highway
A guy in Kansas City decided to take an ATV fro a ride on the highway, the wrong way, naked. NSFW!
The police activity you’ve been seeing along 152 Hwy, I-435 and now 210 Hwy is all because of a naked man riding a yellow ATV who refused to stop for police. 🚓 He’s now in custody. No dangerous instruments were found. pic.twitter.com/hH6cL5yiF2

St. Vincent & Bleachers’ Jack Antonoff talk butts, touring, & more
In the Vevo series ‘Artists on Artist’, St. Vincent and her music producing pal from Bleachers, Jack Antonoff talk a wide range of deep and not-so-deep topics from the process to create her latest album ‘Masseduction’, used sex toys, how much butt they will let you show on network TV, and other fun things.
It’s delightful chat between like-minded gems in the alternative music world. I would love to see a show where Jack interviews all types of people, he has a knack for finding the real meat of a person’s experiences.
Enjoy a look back at both of our LOUNGE sessions with St. Vincent and Bleachers below.
Bear’s Jordan Howard promises playoffs next year
The Chicago Bears did not have a good season in 2017/18, and we all knew it. The Bears themselves knew it, new coach is hired, and we move on. So what do the Bears themselves think of their chances in the next season? Well, Jordan Howard had a bold prediction for NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football” when he said he inspired by former Bear Alshon Jeffery who shot-called his current team the Eagles winning the Super Bowl last year.
“The Bears are definitely going to have a winning season,” Howard said. “We’re going to get to the playoffs. So I guarantee we get to the playoffs.”
Yeah, considering how much trouble the Monsters of the Midway had last year this sounds challenging, but it shows the team’s stars still have a fighting spirit which under our new coach Matt Nagy that is a positive. It’s also good to hear this proclamation from brightest offensive star on the Bears at this time.
The Bears finished with a 5-11 record last season. They have not made it to the playoffs since 2010. and have not had a winning season since 2012.

Szechuan Sauce is Back Today!
McDonald’s is bringing back Szechuan Sauce today and we have “Rick and Morty” to thank…again. The sauce originally cam out in the 90’s as part of the promotion for the Disney movie “Mulan.” McDonald’s eventually discontinued the sauce, but it found new life after it was featured on R&M. Fans pretty much drove McDonald’s crazy until the did a limited release of the sauce last fall. By limited I mean like 8 packets at select stores. People waited in line for hours to get their hands on the sauce and were not happy when they couldn’t get it. In same cases it led to riots breaking out. Yes. All over a dipping sauce no one cared about since 1998. Well, today McD’s is trying to make it all good. This time around all locations should have it. They reported shipped 20 million packets of the sauce. Still, if you’re trying to get your hands on some you might not want to wait. Who knows how long it will last.
Wubba lubba dub dub.
But, if you want to skip right to making your own, Binging with Babish has you covered.
