Panic! At The Disco recently performed a live cover of Adele’s hit, “Rolling In The Deep”. Check out a video of the performance below.

It took a full decade, but ’90s alternative rock outfit Bush have come back down from the clouds.

Fronted by lead singer/rhythm guitarist Gavin Rossdale, the band, best known for radio staples like “Comedown” and “Machinehead,” return September 13 with their fifth full-length release, The Sea of Memories.

When it came to reforming Bush, “It was like, ‘Why am I fighting this?’” said Rossdale, who’s joined by original drummer Robin Goodridge, former touring guitarist Chris Traynor and new bassist Corey Britz on the upcoming LP, the band’s first since disbanding after 2001’s Golden State.

Even during Bush’s downtime, however, Rossdale and Traynor couldn’t escape each other; the two played together in post-Bush project Institute, and Traynor contributed to Rossdale’s 2008 solo album.

“We have the ability to go in a lot of different directions together,” said Traynor, who’s also enjoyed stints with popular post-hardcore groups Helmet and Orange 9mm.

The pair of guitarists recently talked with Guitar World about reviving Bush, their musical relationship and the Bob Rock-produced The Sea of Memories.

This December Chevelle will be unleashing their sixth yet-to-be titled sixth studio album.

Produced by Joe Barresi (Queens of the Stone Age, Coheed and Cambria), the record promises to deliver the brooding, metal-tinged brand of hard rock the Illinois power-trio has built their reputation on.

“Are you ready for a long fucking night?” Dave Grohl sneered, just four songs into what would unspool into a massive two-and-a-half hour set in St. Paul, MN, Wednesday night as Foo Fighters kicked off their 27-date North American to

Grohl has plenty of material to choose from at this point in his career, so rather than trading in any of his band’s greatest hits to feature material off their latest studio album, Wasting Light, he did what any self-respecting, spotlight-loving rock star would do: He simply made his band play longer. Much, much longer. Over the course of the night they managed to feature 8 of the 11 tracks off Wasting Light without axing a single hit off the setlist, nestling new singles like “Rope” and “Walk” between familiar favorites like “Learn to Fly,” “Monkey Wrench,” and an especially grandiose, uplifting version of “My Hero.”

But this was all to be expected. Now nearly two decades into their career, Foo Fighters are experts at drawing in new fans while staying true to their origins and honoring their fanatics. They’ve gleaned the most sustainable elements of the grunge and hardcore punk aesthetic — the straightforward presentation, the unrelenting commitment to authenticity — and married those ideals with a self-aware, populist approach. It’s a balance that has earned them an uncontroversial kind of fame, and it’s a balance that makes for a hell of a live show.

Kerrang! magazine conducted an interview with DEFTONES drummer Abe Cunningham and vocalist Chino Moreno at the Reading festival, which is being held August 26-28 in Reading, England. You can now watch the chat below.

DEFTONES recently began laying the groundwork for its seventh studio release, tentatively due next year. Vocalist Chino Moreno told Billboard magazine that all five members of the group were recording their own ideas already, but that DEFTONES music doesn’t really emerge until the full band gets into a room together and starts jamming.

He explained, “We find that when we actually get together in a rehearsal spot where there’s no distractions and we can work together cohesively as a band, that’s really when we’re writing songs.”

2010’s “Diamond Eyes” has been one of DEFTONES’ most successful outings. The set’s latest single, “You’ve Seen The Butcher”, was a Top 15 rock radio hit.
