Harry Styles’ new single, “Aperture,” now has a visual to go with it.
The music video for the song, released Friday, begins with Harry in a hotel room calling down to the front desk. When he heads to the lobby, he’s confronted by a man who charges at him and tackles him down a spiral staircase. The two eventually go from tussling to dancing, performing some impressive lifts and flips throughout the building.
Harry explained to BBC Radio 1 Friday that “Aperture” was the last song he wrote for his new album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.
“We had most of the album done and a lot of it was exploring the themes that the song is exploring,” he said. “Getting this song at the end of the process when we were feeling the freest and having a lot of fun and it kind of felt like the mission statement of what the album was about.”
He said taking a couple of years off from work led to “a lot of big realizations about generally opening up more to the world and allowing some more positive things to come into my life.”
“It was the culmination of all that was happening around me making this record,” he said. “[‘Aperture’] was like a perfect little bow, and once this song happened it was like, ‘Oh, the record’s finished.’”
Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally. comes out March 6. Here is the track list: “Aperture” “American Girls” “Ready, Steady, Go!” “Are You Listening Yet?” “Taste Back” “The Waiting Game” “Season 2 Weight Loss” “Coming Up Roses” “Pop” “Dance on More” “Paint by Numbers” “Carla’s Song”
Covers of Supertramp’s ‘Even in the Quietest Moments…’, ‘Breakfast In America’ and ‘…Famous Last Words…’ (Universal Music)
Supertramp is celebrating their 50th anniversary by reissuing some of their classic albums.
The latest releases include 1977’s Even in the Quietest Moments…, their 1979 megahit Breakfast in America and 1982’s …Famous Last Words….
All three albums have been remastered at half-speed at Abbey Road Studios and will be released on vinyl on March 20. They are available for preorder now.
Even in the Quietest Moments…, Supertramp’s fifth studio album, was a top-20 hit for the band and featured the Hot 100 hit “Give a Little Bit.” But it was Breakfast in America that was their breakout album, hitting #1 on the Billboard chart and selling over 22 million records worldwide, thanks to such hit songs as “The Logical Song,” “Goodbye Stranger” and “Take the Long Way Home.”
Finally, …Famous Last Words… was a top-five hit for the band. It was also the last Supertramp album to feature the classic lineup of Roger Hodgson, Rick Davies, Dougie Thomson, John Helliwell and Bob Seibenberg.
The new releases are the latest additions to Supertramp’s 50th anniversary reissue series, which launched in August with the announcement of half-speed remasters of 1974’s Crime of the Century and 1975’s Crisis? What Crisis?
Megadeth’s self-titled final album is out now, which means fans are finally getting to hear the band’s cover of Metallica’s “Ride the Lightning.”
Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine was Metallica’s original guitar player but was fired from the band in 1983 and replaced by Kirk Hammet. He didn’t actually play on the original “Ride the Lightning,” which appeared on Metallica’s 1984 sophomore album. However, he’s credited as a co-writer on the song as it uses a riff that he came up with.
Mustaine first confirmed that Megadeth’s album contained the Metallica cover in an October interview with Rolling Stone.
“Our intentions were pure,” he said of rerecording the song. “I didn’t have any reason I was going to say, ‘Oh, hey man, this thing that we’ve had for 40 years where you guys will never tour with me, me doing the song is going to change things.’ That wasn’t it at all. It was more about: This is my life going forward. I want to do things that are respectable.”
Next up, Megadeth is set to kick off a farewell tour of North America, starting in Canada on Feb. 15 in Victoria, British Columbia. They will hit the U.S. starting in September. A complete list of dates can be found at Megadeth.com.
If you’ve listened closely to Carly Pearce songs like “Dream Come True” and “Church Girl,” it’s apparent she’s a deep thinker.
The Grand Ole Opry member admits she’s also a bit of a worrier — something that just seems to run in the family.
“I worry a lot,” Carly says. “I worry about everything. It’s in my blood … my grandma was a worrier.”
“I worry about all kinds of things,” she continues. “It’s just hard to get my mind to shut off. I would like to worry less and live in the moment a little more.”
“Church Girl” is already sparking debate on social media, as Carly’s radio single, “Dream Come True,” starts its climb up the chart. Both are previews of her upcoming fifth studio album.
