Three Days Grace‘s 2012 album, Transit of Venus, is coming to vinyl for the first time.
The record will make its wax debut on March 20. You can preorder your copy now.
Transit of Venus marked the fourth Three Days Grace album and spawned the singles “Chalk Outline,” “The High Road” and “Misery Loves My Company.” It also marked the last 3DG record prior to the departure of frontman Adam Gontier in 2013.
Three Days Grace then released three albums with new vocalist Matt Walst before Gontier rejoined in 2024, forming a two-singer lineup. Their first album featuring both Walst and Gontier, Alienation, was released in 2025.
Three Days Grace will launch a U.S. tour in support of Alienation in February.

Cannons have announced a new album called Everything Glows.
The fifth studio effort from the “Fire for You” outfit is due out March 27. It includes the previously released single “All I Need”; a second track, titled “Starlight,” drops Friday.
“Everything Glows is the most vulnerable album we’ve made,” says frontwoman Michelle Joy. “It came from taking a step back and really reflecting, both as a band and as individuals, instead of just pushing forward. That space became transformative for us, a kind of rebirth.”
Everything Glows is the follow-up to 2023’s Heartbeat Highway, which spawned the single “Loving You.”
Cannons will launch a U.S. tour in March alongside Bob Moses.
Here’s the Everything Glows track list: “All I Need” “Starlight” “Carousel” “I Get Weak” “These Nights” “Shine” “Light as a Feather” “Fool for You” “Good Luck Charm” “Photographs” “Take Me to Tokyo”

(WASHINGTON) — White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller told ABC News that officials are “evaluating” why Customs and Border Protection agents in Minneapolis “may not have been following” protocol in the events that led to the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis on Saturday.
The comments appear to be a shift from Miller, who hours after the shooting, called Pretti, an ICU nurse for the Department of Veteran Affairs, a “domestic terrorist” and “a would-be assassin” without providing evidence. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Pretti’s conduct “the definition of domestic terrorism” — also without evidence — which sparked backlash.
Miller’s comments come as the Trump administration grapples with the fallout of Pretti’s shooting — as well as the death of Renee Good, a mother of three, who was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Jan. 7.
“The initial statement from DHS was based on reports from CBP on the ground,” Miller said in a statement.
“Additionally, the White House provided clear guidance to DHS that the extra personnel that had been sent to Minnesota for force protection should be used for conducting fugitive operations to create a physical barrier between the arrest teams and the disruptors. We are evaluating why the CBP team may not have been following that protocol,” Miller told ABC News.
The administration has sought to create some distance from Miller and Noem’s earlier characterization of the shooting.
Earlier this week, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, walked back the comments that Pretti was a “domestic terrorist.”
“I don’t think anybody thinks that they were comparing what happened on Saturday to the legal definition of domestic terrorism,” Blanche said on Fox News.
Asked by ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Mary Bruce if the president agreed with the characterization of Pretti as a “domestic terrorist,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt distanced the president from those comments.
“Look, as I’ve said, I have not heard the president characterize Mr. Pretti in that way,” Leavitt said during the White House press briefing on Monday. “However, I have heard the president say he wants to let the facts in the investigation lead itself.”
DHS did not respond to ABC News’ request for comment.

(MINNEAPOLIS) — The FBI is now leading the investigation after a man charged the podium where Rep. Ilhan Omar was giving remarks during a town hall in Minneapolis on Tuesday, police said.
The man appeared to squirt a liquid at her and was then tackled to the ground by a security guard after a brief struggle.
The man, identified as 55-year-old Anthony Kazmierczak, was arrested and booked into Hennepin County Jail on suspicion of third-degree assault, Minneapolis police said.
The department said its officers were at the town hall for the event and observed a man use a syringe to spray an unknown liquid onto the congresswoman.
Preliminary reports indicate the liquid was non-toxic, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said during a press event Wednesday.
Moriarty said her office is reviewing its charging options, and that she has heard that the federal government “might charge the man as well.”
The Minneapolis Police Department said Wednesday that the FBI is now leading the investigation and that it had no further public information.
The incident sparked cries of alarm from those in attendance. The congresswoman did not appear to be injured.
“I’m going to finish my remarks. It is important for me to continue,” Omar said, using a profanity.
“We will continue,” she said. “These f—— a——- are not going to get away with it!”
The disturbance comes amid tensions in Minneapolis between local officials and the Trump administration over the immigration crackdown in the city that has seen two U.S. citizens killed in shootings involving federal agents.
Shortly before the man charged the podium, Omar called for abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Afterward, she told reporters that she won’t be intimidated.
“You know, I’ve survived more, and I’m definitely going to survive intimidation and whatever these people think that they can throw at me because I’m built that way,” she said.’Omar has been the target of attacks from President Donald Trump for years. More recently, his attacks have come alongside escalated rhetoric describing the Somali community in Minnesota, the largest in the nation.
In the past several weeks, Trump has called Omar a “fake sleazebag,” and called for her to be thrown out of the U.S.
In a phone interview Tuesday evening with ABC News’ Senior Political Correspondent Rachel Scott, Trump said he hadn’t seen video of the incident and without providing evidence accused Omar of staging the attack.
“I don’t think about her. I think she’s a fraud,” Trump said. “She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her.”
In a post on X regarding Tuesday’s incident, Omar said: “I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.”
In a statement, U.S. Capitol Police said: “Tonight, a man is in custody after he decided to assault a Member of Congress — an unacceptable decision that will be met with swift justice.” The department said it is “working with our federal partners to see this man faces the most serious charges possible to deter this kind of violence in our society.”
Capitol Police said threats against members of Congress increased for the third year in a row. The department said it investigated 14,938 concerning statements, behaviors and communications directed against members of Congress, their families and their staff last year — compared to 9,474 in 2024.

Neil Young continues to be outspoken about companies who he says support President Donald Trump and his policies.
In his latest post on his Neil Young Archives website, the rocker rails against Verizon and Apple, writing that he’s upset he may have to get rid of his phone because it’s from Verizon.
“I can’t use a Verizon phone,” he writes. “Verizon is a supporter of Trump, with big $. What can I do? I’m checking with our office to see if I can get a T-Mobile flip phone. T-Mobile is not a supporter of the Trump fascist regime.”
He adds, “I am trying to not support the companies that support the regime with huge donations, just to cover their own a*****, while people are being shot in the streets of America, not just Minnesota, America!”
Young’s also rethinking the fact that he uses an Apple computer, though his manager told him he could keep it since it’s already paid for.
“I have to stop and re-assess,” he writes. “No more upgrades! That feeds Apple, Apple supports ‘The Regime.’ That money is going to Apple now. Tim Cook, the CEO, falling over backwards to support the regime!”
“I have to re-asses everything I am doing,” he concludes. “I will sue Apple if my computer doesn’t work without the new costly upgrade. What about Warner Brothers?”
In the post, Young notes there’s a list of companies supporting Trump on his Archives editorial page, along with numbers to contact the CEOs of the companies.
Young’s latest post follows his recent announcement that he’s making his Neil Young Archives site available for free to people in Greenland. He also encouraged his fans not to use Amazon, calling Jeff Bezos “a billionaire backer of the president.”

(WASHINGTON) — As the cost of many basic goods, including groceries, continues to rise, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an interview with ABC News Senior White House Correspondent Selina Wang, he understands the hardships facing millions of people, but argued that the Biden administration is responsible for the rising costs.
“Look, Americans should be worried about affordability. The Biden administration destroyed affordability,” he told ABC News on Wednesday, contending inflation under the Biden administration was the worst in 49 years.
Bessent did not provide more details about how the previous administration was responsible for rising costs, but claimed that the Trump administration was “getting inflation under control.”
Yet prices for goods are seeing mixed results, according to Consumer Price Index data.
For example, gas prices have decreased over the last year, while coffee prices have risen by nearly 20% and ground beef prices have risen by 15.5% during the same period, CPI data showed.
When pressed on those statistics, Bessent said people need to see costs in a broader context.
“When you step on the scale, you don’t look at the composite number of how much you weigh and say, ‘Well, my arm weighs this. My head weighs this.’ So I believe that we are quickly going to meet the [Federal Reserve’s] target of 2% inflation,” he said.
Bessent on the Fed
When it came to the Fed, Bessent stressed that President Donald Trump “has great reverence” for the body and respects the central bank but added, “independence does not mean no accountability.”
“I think it’s very important for the Fed to be both independent but accountable,” he said.
Earlier this month, the Justice Department announced a probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell, alleging he misled Congress about costs over the renovation of Federal Reserve buildings.
Powell said in a statement that the probe is part of the administration’s push to lower interest rates.
“This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions — or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation,” he said in a video message on Jan. 11.
A bipartisan group of senators and former Fed chairs slammed the Justice Department for the probe.
Bessent allegedly warned Trump that the investigation “made a mess” and could be bad for financial markets, according to a report by Axios. When asked about those alleged concerns, the treasury secretary told ABC News he has “repeatedly called for the Fed to do its own investigation.”
Trump accounts
Bessent was slated to appear with the president on Wednesday to discuss his “Trump Accounts” plan for families.
Under Trump’s signature tax and spending legislation, starting this July, the federal government will deposit $1,000 for every baby born between 2025 and 2028. Families can contribute up to $5,000 annually. Employers can contribute up to $2,500 per year per employee.
Michael Dell and his wife announced late last year they are donating $6.25 billion to seed savings accounts for up to 25 million American children — depositing $250 for every child age 10 and under, who lives in a zip code where the median income is below $150,000.
Bessent told ABC News that 600,000 families have already gone online to open accounts. He said he expects states to make contributions, in addition to new contributions from companies and philanthropists.
“So there will be government contribution. We believe that many states will make contributions,” he said.
“Employers are going to contribute, philanthropists are going to contribute, companies are going to contribute,” Bessent added.
JP Morgan and Bank of America announced Wednesday that they will match employees’ “Trump Accounts” by $1,000.
Venezuela
Bessent said “things are moving very quickly” when it comes to oil companies committing to invest in rebuilding Venezuela’s oil sector.
He didn’t provide the dollar amount that’s been committed, but said they’re seeing “great demand.”
Shortly after the U.S. removed the Venezuelan president from power on Jan. 3, Trump said that he expects at least $100 billion in investments from major companies.
But during a roundtable Trump held earlier this month with oil executives, several CEOs expressed reservations.

Olivia Wilde‘s latest film has landed at A24.
The upcoming romantic comedy film The Invite has been acquired by the studio after its Sundance Film Festival premiere in a competitive, 72-hour bidding war.
The Invite is Wilde’s third directorial effort after her films Booksmart and Don’t Worry Darling. It is based on director Cesc Gay’s Spanish-language film Sentimental.Will McCormack and Rashida Jones wrote its screenplay.
In addition to directing, Wilde stars alongside Seth Rogen, Edward Norton and Penélope Cruz.
The movie follows married couple Joe (Rogen) and Angela (Wilde), who invite their upstairs neighbors Hawk (Norton) and Pina (Cruz) over for dinner, “where everything that could go wrong goes wrong,” according to its official description.
This marks one of the first major deals to come out of Sundance 2026. After its world premiere on Jan. 24, the film received a rare standing ovation.

J. Cole isn’t the only one celebrating a birthday. Wednesday also marks the 10th anniversary of ANTI, the last album Rihanna released. While that is enough for a celebration, there’s even more reason to toast: The album’s tracks have earned new certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America.
“James Joint” and “Woo” have officially earned Platinum status, while “Consideration” is now double Platinum. “Desperado” is certified three-times Platinum, while “Kiss It Better” and “Sex With Me” are four-times Platinum.
“Work” featuring Drake is now 11-times Platinum, “Needed Me” sits at 12-times Platinum and “Love on the Brain” leads the pack with a Diamond certification.
Spotify also shared data highlighting ANTI’s growth in the years after its 2016 release.
According to the platform, streams have increased by 130% over the past five years, reaching an all-time peak on Feb. 13, 2023, following Rih’s Super Bowl halftime performance. Part of this resurgence can be credited to Gen Z listeners, with 5 million of them discovering her music in 2025.
“Love on the Brain,” “Needed Me” and “Work” all joined Spotify’s Billions Club, and ANTI marked its biggest streaming debut to date this January.
The album’s most-streamed tracks on Spotify in order are: “Love on the Brain,” “Needed Me,” “Work,” “Kiss It Better,” “Desperado,” “Woo,” “Consideration,” “Yeah, I Said It,” “Same Ol’ Mistakes,” “James Joint,” “Higher,” “Close to You” and “Never Ending.”
With Rihanna’s focus seemingly on Fenty Beauty, Savage X Fenty and being a mother, fans continue to wonder if she will ever release another album.
In 2025, she told Harper’s Bazaar, “I just cracked the code on what I really want to do for my next body of work. I am actually feeling really good about this.”
