New Album

Demos, B-sides and concert recordings are among the rarities that will be included on not one, but two deluxe 20th anniversary editions of Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ from Universal Music Enterprises. Originally scheduled for a Sept. 19 release, the digitally remastered and beefed-up ‘Nevermind’ packages will now drop on Sept. 27 — 20 years and three days after the original album arrived.

It wasn’t all that long ago that it seemed like Aerosmith might never record again — but they’re back in the studio, working on their first album of new material in a decade, and they’re giving fans an early behind-the-scenes look at the process. The band’s latest in-studio video offers a glimpse of what appears to be one of the new songs in progress, with guitarist Joe Perry playing a blues riff

Since delving into the blues with 1994′s ‘From the Cradle,’ Eric Clapton has more or less divided his time between albums of original material and projects that pay tribute to his influences. Now he’s looking back to the past again — and he isn’t alone.

Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ is lauded as one of the most important albums of the past few decades and its 20th anniversary is fast-approaching (feel old yet?). To celebrate, Spin magazine is releasing an unusual — and free — tribute.

It’s always hard for a sequel to recapture the excitement of whatever made the original great, but give Alice Cooper credit — he’s doing whatever he can to convince fans that his upcoming album, a sequel to his classic ‘Welcome to My Nightmare,’ is something special. Cooper reunited with the original Alice Cooper Band for a few tracks on the new ‘Nightmare’ and even enlisted his old producer, Bob

Two years ago, Alice in Chains emerged from a 14-year hiatus — and the death of original vocalist Layne Staley — with ‘Black Gives Way to Blue.’ The band is already assembling its next album — and according to Heart vocalist Ann Wilson, they’re playing at the top of their game. “I saw those guys just yesterday,” Wilson said in a recent interview with Ultimate Classic Rock. “I went over to visit th

It’s been a long eight years between albums, but Jane’s Addiction fans can look forward to some new music just around the corner. The band’s new album, titled ‘The Great Escape Artist,’ is scheduled for a September 27 release on Capitol Records. It marks only the fourth Jane’s studio set since 1988, and their first since 2003′s reunion record ‘Strays.’

Over the last 15 years or so, R.E.M. fans have grown accustomed to three-to-four-year waits between new albums — but it looks like the band is speeding things up for its next release. With its most recent album, ‘Collapse Into Now,’ a mere four months old, R.E.M. is already in an Athens, Georgia studio working on the follow-up — and fans can follow their progress via a series of snapshots that sin

It's just a 30-second clip -- a riff, really -- and you'll have to wait until September to hear the full album, but if you've been eager for a taste of the new Chickenfoot record, the band has what you're looking for.

It's been trapped in development hell for so long that it seemed like Andre 3000's Jimi Hendrix biopic would probably never reach theaters -- but it looks like it might still be in the works. Speaking with Esquire in a recent interview, actress Hayley Atwell discussed the film, saying Andre was still attached, but that it's an independent project -- which might be why Atwell says she's taking a &q

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have always made an effort to include a provocative visual component with their music, an aesthetic that has encompassed everything from their outlandish stage getups to the memorably bold covers for albums like 'Blood Sugar Sex Magik' and 'Mother's Milk.' The band is continuing that tradition with the cover for their next release, 'I'm With You,' due August 30 from their

Anything can happen in the wild world of Aerosmith, so this news is subject to change until the record is actually in stores, but it looks like the band is back in the studio with Jack Douglas -- the legendary producer who helmed their classic '70s albums. In a video message, bassist Tom Hamilton broke the news, calling Douglas “the guy who we worked with producing our best albums of the ’70s"
