William Royce “Boz” Scaggs grew up in Plano, Texas, after arriving there by way of Canton, Ohio, and McAlester, Oklahoma. Lessons on cello at age nine yielded to a guitar by twelve, thanks to schoolmate Steve Miller, with whom Scaggs fronted the Marksmen while attending Dallas’s St. Mark’s School. The pair carried their partnership to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, gigging in blues combos such as the Ardells before Scaggs dropped out in 1963, busked his way across Europe, and cut an obscure solo LP in Stockholm in 1965. Miller’s postcard from San Francisco lured him back to the States in 1967, where a brief stint on the Steve Miller Band’s Children of the Future and Sailor set Scaggs on a solo path with Atlantic Records.

That 1969 Atlantic debut—recorded at Muscle Shoals with Duane Allman and produced by Rolling Stone co-founder Jann Wenner—earned raves but modest sales. Columbia Records offered a fresh start, yielding Moments (1971), Boz Scaggs & Band (1971), My Time (1972), and Slow Dancer (1974), each edging him closer to a signature amalgam of blue-eyed soul, jazz, and soft rock. Commercial ignition arrived with 1976’s Silk Degrees: No. 2 on the Billboard 200, five-times platinum, Grammy nominations for Album of the Year and Producer of the Year, and the Grammy win for Best R&B Song with the million-selling single “Lowdown.” Follow-up LPs Down Two Then Left (1977) and Middle Man (1980) went platinum as well, spinning off radio perennials “Lido Shuffle,” “Breakdown Dead Ahead,” and “Jojo,” while soundtrack cut “Look What You’ve Done to Me” rode the Urban Cowboy wave to the Top 20.

Scaggs stepped back for much of the 1980s, surfacing with 1988’s Other Roads and co-founding San Francisco’s Slim’s nightclub, which he owned until its 2020 closure. The 1990s and 2000s marked a stylistic pivot: Some Change (1994) paired adult-contemporary craft with blues inflections; Come On Home (1997) paid homage to R&B roots; But Beautiful (2003) and Speak Low (2008) topped the jazz chart with standards bathed in cool restraint. Modern studio sets—Dig (2001), Memphis (2013), A Fool to Care (2015), and Out of the Blues (2018)—rounded out a discography that now numbers nineteen solo studio albums, each underscoring his versatility across blues, jazz, and retro-soul. Both A Fool to Care and Out of the Blues debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Blues Albums list, the latter securing a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

Chart success is only part of Scaggs’s industry esteem. His hand-picked Silk Degrees session band—David Paich, Jeff Porcaro, and David Hungate—used the momentum to launch Toto, crediting Scaggs for catalyzing their record deal. Session work with Steely Dan and tours with Fleetwood Mac further attest to his peer respect. Awards beyond his Grammy include RIAA multi-platinum plaques, the 2019 Texas Medal of Arts, and a Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums nod for Silk Degrees.

Outside the studio, Scaggs nurtured live music culture: Slim’s became a Bay Area institution, while his ongoing tours, including the Dukes of September revue with Donald Fagen and Michael McDonald, kept classic repertoire in front of new audiences. Personal ventures include an organic Napa Valley vineyard established with his wife Dominique, producing Rhône-style wines until the 2017 Northern California wildfires destroyed the property—a setback he faced with characteristic resilience, donating guitars to Japanese earthquake relief in 2024 and continuing to tour into his eighties.

Beloved for a voice that glides from husky baritone to falsetto, for songwriting that marries sophisticated chord changes to pop hooks, and for guitar work steeped in Texas blues, Boz Scaggs occupies a rare stratum: equally credible to audiophiles, jazz aficionados, and soft-rock traditionalists. His career illustrates how thoughtful genre fusion, meticulous studio craft, and a willingness to evolve can yield a catalogue that endures well beyond its commercial heyday.

“They completely destroyed the bar we were playing and broke a waitress’s leg. It was a trainwreck.” Inside the chaos and carnage of Acid Bath – the great lost Louisiana sludge metal band.

Death lurks in the Louisiana swamps. Floods, hurricanes, disease-spreading bugs, colossal alligators… there are plenty of ways to meet a grizzly end. Such mortal perils made it the perfect spawning ground for a nihilistic, scuzzy new strain of metal in the early 90s.

But while Eyehategod, Crowbar and Soilent Green helped turn New Orleans into the world’s sludge metal capital, arguably the most groundbreaking band to emerge from that scene came from the backwaters of the Bayou State. For all intents and purposes, Acid Bath lived at the end of the world.

“When you’ve got the barrel of a gun pointed at you by God, with hurricanes being thrown at you every year, people don’t worry anymore,” Acid Bath singer Dax Riggs says today. “You get on with living.”

Acid Bath burned bright and brief. Their music blended sludge with doom, death metal and the blues, their lyrics painting vivid narratives of mania, madness and death with psychedelic imagery, and they left chaos and controversy in their wake. They released just two albums during their six-year existence, before tragedy cut their career short in 1997.

For the next 27 years, they remained the great lost Louisiana band, beloved by underground metal connoisseurs – including Slipknot’s Corey Taylor – but little known by the wider world.

And then something strange happened. In October 2024, the line-up for the third edition of millennial metal megafest Sick New World was announced. Among the many bands on the bill were Acid Bath, due to play their first shows since 1997. Even amid a line-up that included Metallica and Linkin Park, it was their presence that generated the most vocal excitement online.

“It’s fucking weird, man,” says guitarist Sammy Duet. “While we were together, nobody really gave a shit. Touring, we’d only really do well in Louisiana and the South. We’d go to New York City… there’d be 10 people there.”

“You’d think it would have taken a rest when we put the band to sleep,” Dax marvels. “It never did. I still get people telling me we recorded their favourite albums. [Adult actress] Stormy Daniels even has our lyrics tattooed on her. It blows my fucking mind.”


It’s a common misconception that Acid Bath took their band name from John Haigh, nicknamed ‘The Acid Bath Murderer’ after killing six people and dissolving their bodies in sulphuric acid in 1940s Britain. The truth is more mundane: they nicked it from a local band who had just split up. “Plus we took a lot of acid,” admits Sammy.

They formed in 1991 from a pair of local groups: Dark Karnival (Sammy and bassist Audie Pitre) and Golgotha (Dax, guitarist Mike Sanchez and drummer Jimmy Kyle). They’d all grown up in various small towns an hour or two’s drive away from New Orleans itself – Houma, Morgan City, Galiano.

“It felt like we were the only people making any kind of extreme music where we were from,” Dax says. “We were outside it all in our creation. We had room to grow the way we were supposed to.”

Acid Bath’s sound was distinct from the rest of the sludge metal crowd, drawing on influences as diverse as Morbid Angel, Depeche Mode, The Doors and Simon And Garfunkel. But the extremes of their music were tied together by dense riffs and existential dread that sprang from a shared love of early Black Sabbath.

Acid Bath knew they had to break into the New Orleans scene. They would drive out to the city on a Friday and stay there all weekend, playing late-night showcases where they might not go onstage until 3am. Soon they were packing out the places they played and befriending members of Crowbar and Eyehategod. Word eventually reached Roadrunner Records in New York, who sent a representative to Louisiana to see Acid Bath play. It was a disaster.

“Word got out and the fans all went berserk,” Dax recalls. “They completely destroyed the bar we were playing and broke a waitress’s leg. It was a trainwreck.”

Roadrunner passed on the band, but Acid Bath found a home with underground label Rotten Records. In late 1993, they headed to Side One studio in Metairie, Louisiana to record their debut album, When The Kite String Pops. Released in August 1994, it plumbed the darkness under the surface of the Louisiana swamps.

Bad-trip songs such as Jezebel and The Bones Of Baby Dolls were filled with images of death, depravity and mental distress.

“There’s a very dark vibe here,” Sammy says. “The first settlers used it as a penal colony. Southern Louisiana is where they’d stick their murderers, their rapists and their mentally ill. It all seeped into the soil.”

When The Kite String Pops would subsequently become a cult classic, but at the time it caused ripples rather than waves. Much of the attention it did get centred on the artwork – a painting by infamous serial killer John Wayne Gacy, chosen by the label. It tied in perfectly with the band’s overall vibe, but not everyone was on board with it.

“I hated it,” Dax admits. “I get that we had serial killer references and it made sense on the surface, but to associate it with a particular killer or incident wasn’t a good thing for us.”

The minor controversy surrounding the cover didn’t do them any harm, and the chaos of their New Orleans gig continued on the road. They were denied entry to Canada at the border after turning up without documentation or visas (“Then they found something they weren’t happy with on our bus,” says Sammy. “Let’s leave it at that.”), and at one show, Dax was blasted with electricity mid-gig, falling head-first into the crowd.

“I didn’t get brain damage… I think,” he jokes.

Then there was the gig in Iowa, where they were supported by a local band wearing weird masks. Their name? Slipknot.

“It was still very early days for them,” says Sammy. “At the time they’d got a different singer – Corey hadn’t joined yet. Clown was actually the promoter of that show. As I recall, they still had a lot of that theatricality and Clown was there beating these beer kegs. They were just this local band, but a few years later I saw them on TV, and it was like, ‘Wait, it’s these fucking guys!’”


Acid Bath Live 1990s

Acid Bath’s second album, Paegan Terrorism Tactics, was released in November 1996. It was a more straightahead record than the debut, though the dark lyrical content remained, as did the provocative cover art – this time a painting by controversial euthanasia proponent Jack Kevorkian, aka Dr Death.

An increased melodic focus hinted at bigger commercial ambitions, though not everyone saw it that way – sales of the debut album in the UK had been so poor that Roadrunner, who licensed the album on this side of the Atlantic, refused to release the follow-up. It was a moot point anyway.

On January 23, 1997, just two months after Paegan Terrorism Tactics was released, bassist Audie Pitre was killed in a car accident. He had been out with his parents and younger brother when their car was hit by a drunk driver. Audie and his parents died from their injuries, though his brother survived. The rest of the band found out when they met to go and see Cannibal Corpse play a local show.

“As soon as we got to the venue, our manager took us aside and told us we needed to talk,” says Sammy. “Audie’s girlfriend called us and she just said, ‘He’s gone. He’s dead.’ I hung up and told the rest of the guys, we just couldn’t believe it. It was a bad night. I’d been friends with him since we were teenagers.”

Almost 30 years on, the pain and grief is still obvious. Sammy is forced to stop as tears well up, while Dax sags as he talks about Audie’s loss.

“Audie’s the guy who made it all possible,” says the singer. “He was a very kind person and so creative too – ideas poured out of him all the time. He connected us all. He was like a brother to me and it felt like a hopeless situation without him.”

The members of Acid Bath served as pallbearers at his funeral, and they briefly tried to keep the band going. Audie’s best friend, Joseph Fontenot, was recruited to play bass and the band booked some shows. But the grief at his passing proved too much, and the rest of Acid Bath found it difficult to play the songs without their friend. A disastrous gig with Crowbar at Shreveport Municipal Auditorium on April 25, 1997 was the final straw.

The venue held more than 3,000 people, but fewer than 500 people turned up. Today, they blame the promoter, but whatever the reason, the outcome was the same – Acid Bath were done. “It was a crushing end to it all, really,” says Dax sadly.

After Acid Bath’s split, the surviving bandmembers stayed in touch but went in different directions musically. Sammy joined Crowbar for a four-year stint before devoting his attention to his black metal side-project, Goatwhore.

Dax and guitarist Mike Sanchez initially played together in Agents Of Oblivion, releasing a self-titled album in 2000. Dax subsequently formed the bluesy Deadboy & The Elephantmen, before going solo with 2007’s We Sing Of Only Blood Or Love, only to drop off the map entirely after the release of 2010’s Say Goodnight To The World.

In their absence, Acid Bath’s reputation was growing. File-sharing meant the band’s music reached more people than it ever did when they still existed. Slipknot’s Corey Taylor cited them as an influence – the song Acidic from the Des Moines band’s 2022 album The End, So Far is supposedly a tribute to them, while rumours circulated that Corey had been approached to front an Acid Bath reunion in Dax’s absence.

Ironically, it was another death that partly inspired their reunion. Tomas Viator, who had played drums in Sammy and Audie’s earlier band, Dark Karnival, and joined Acid Bath as keyboard player for the last few months of their existence, passed away in May 2024. Around the same time, Sammy was asked by the people behind Sick New World if he’d consider reuniting Acid Bath for the 2025 edition of the festival.

“It just put everything in perspective,” Sammy admits. “It was like, ‘If we’re gonna do it, we should do it now while everyone is still around.’”

The Acid Bath reunion was announced in October 2024, with the line-up featuring Sammy, Dax and Mike Sanchez, plus Goatwhore’s Zack Simmons replacing original drummer Jimmy Kyle, and Dax’s former Agents Of Oblivion bandmate Alex Bergeron on bass. Although Sick New World was later cancelled, Acid Bath’s second coming couldn’t be stopped.

More reunion dates were announced at US festivals Sonic Temple, Welcome To Rockville, Louder Than Life and Inkcarceration, as well as a pair of hometown headline shows at the Fillmore in New Orleans in April. Two subsequent shows were announced at the 4,000-capacity Hollywood Palladium in LA in August – the biggest gigs of their career.

Both rapidly sold out. In November 2024, Acid Bath held their first practice in almost 30 years.

“It was amazing, man!” Sammy says enthusiastically. “We didn’t have any of the ‘Oh, what do we play?’ shit. We just started playing [Paegan Terrorism Tactics’ opener] Paegan Love Song and burned through it. None of us had said about playing that song, so we just locked in together.”

“I kinda just went berserk and decided to go for it,” Dax says with a grin. “It felt totally natural. It’s not as painful as every moment was [after Audie passed].”

Having sold out every show they’ve announced so far, Acid Bath are already bigger now than they were first time around. But they’re non-committal when it comes to recording a new album.

“I’m not opposed to creating music with Mike and Dax again – I’d love that. But I’d be very hesitant to call it Acid Bath,” says Sammy. “But when you’re jamming together, eventually you get bored of just doing the same songs over and over. That’s when you end up writing new music.”

“It’s all up in the air, but I do think it’d need to be done as something else,” Dax agrees. “My dream of the third Acid Bath record was a very doomy trip. But I love playing with these guys. It’s like a giant psychedelic weapon.”

The second coming of Acid Bath officially begins on April 25, with the first of those two hometown shows (the second follows on April 30). Whether this reunion is a belated victory lap or the start of something bigger remains to be seen, but whatever happens, this band from the wilds of Louisiana are finally and deservedly getting their time in the sun.

Acid Bath play Sonic Temple, Inkcarceration, Welcome To Rockville and Louder Than Life this year.

“The revolving stage was great fun, especially when it broke down and we got the audience to push it”: If anything mostly worked out during Yes’ Union era, it was the accompanying tour

In the late 80s Jon Anderson, Bill Bruford, Rick Wakeman and Steve Howe were struggling to make their second ABWH record. Meanwhile Chris Squire, Trevor Rabin, Tony Kaye and Alan White were struggling to make a follow-up to 1987 Yes album Big Generator.

To the surprise of many, the musicians pooled their resources for 1991 Yes album Union. Ironically it managed to divide fans – but the associated world tour is much more fondly remembered, especially by most of those who took part. Prog asked some of the surviving members about it in 2018.


Union may well be the most debated album in the entire Yes canon. Rick Wakeman, of course, humorously called it “onion” as it reduced him to tears. However, the 84-date tour that supported the album ran in three legs over 11 months and offered an opportunity to see something they thought impossible: both Yes factions together.

Howe: It was a long tour. We did months and months and months of it.

Wakeman: We all met, the eight of us, and it was really funny. Tony and I got on great. He said, “You do whatever you want to do and I’ll just fiddle around.”

Kaye: It was certainly great playing with Rick, who happens to be one of the funniest guys in the world. It was very easy for us to sort out our parts. Same with Alan and Bill.

White: Bill and myself were pretty good, actually. We worked out who should play what. I ended up doing a major amount of the drumming and he did the frills on the top for quite a lot of it. He played Heart Of The Sunrise and very iconic things. That suited his style.

Wakeman: There was only one of Chris and Jon. We tried to integrate as much as possible. Certain things worked very well.

Kaye: I thought, “Wow, great, this is going to be cool – there’s going to be two of everything.’ Almost. In most part, everyone got on and did their thing in the band, and it was really successful on a musical level.

The best thing for me from the Union tour was that it led to the Talk album, which is my favourite Yes album

Trevor Rabin

Anderson: The tour was extraordinary on so many levels. That was the saving grace around those years.

Wakeman: People found their little cliques and got on with it. It worked; it was an amazing tour. We had the revolving stage, which was great fun – especially when it broke down and we got members of the audience to push it!

Howe: “The Union tour wasn’t all bad. Places like Britain brought the discipline into Yes.

Wakeman: I had a riotous time. I bought a van and drove around because I didn’t want to wait for Chris at airports, as much as I love him. I just drove the entire time. I had a wonderful time with all of the guys.

Anderson: Awaken being performed by eight musicians was pure magic.

Rabin: The best thing for me from the Union tour was that it led to the Talk album, which is my favourite Yes album, and I really enjoyed playing with Rick.

Howe: I know people love it. The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inducted the Union tour line-up – that was their decision. It showed that that line-up rang the right tune.

“Life has simply caught up with me”: Devin Townsend is taking an indefinite break from touring

Devin Townsend is taking an indefinite break from live music after his upcoming North American schedule is finished, promising that he’ll be absent from the stage for “the forseeable future.”

Townsend broke the news in a video entitled “Going on a loooooong vacation’, which was posted to his YouTube channel earlier today.

“For nearly 35 years, I’ve followed a creative path guided by instinct – each album, each tour, each project a new chapter in a story I’ve felt compelled to tell,” writes Townsend. “My mind latches onto concepts, and I love chasing them down. That chase has made this journey wild, unpredictable, and deeply fulfilling.

“Over the years, I’ve heard it countless times: ‘Dev, take a break… please.’ But the flood of ideas, the excitement, and the support of incredible musicians and listeners have kept me going, kept me touring, and kept me grateful for a life on the road.

“That said, things have changed – especially since the pandemic. Booking tours now means planning up to two years in advance. With fewer venues, fewer crews, and a saturated touring circuit, it’s become more challenging than ever to line things up.

“And beyond the logistics, life has simply caught up with me: my parents need help, my dogs are on their last legs, the kids have moved out, The Moth [his rock opera, performed with the Noord Nederlands Orkestra in The Netherlands] is nearly complete, and truthfully, I need some time to breathe and recalibrate.

“So I’ve made the decision to take a break from touring – an indefinite one. This upcoming North American run will be the last time you’ll see me on stage for the foreseeable future. That doesn’t mean I’m done playing live. Not by a long shot. I’ll be performing until my final breath. But right now, I need to be present for the people who need me, and to give myself the space to reflect on everything I’ve been through.”

Townsend goes on to report that he’ll shortly be launching The Ruby Quaker Show, a YouTube series that’ll explore dozens of creative projects he’s had “on the back burner.”

“I will return to the stage,” he adds. “But first, I need to reset. Touring has been a beautiful, exhausting constant in my life, and for once, I’m listening to the voice that says: slow down. I want to create from a place of calm inspiration rather than frantic obligation.

“And until I can truly be there for the people who rely on me, my creativity won’t be at its best. So here’s the deal: this final North American tour is going to be something special. We’re digging deep into the catalogue, pulling out some big ones, and making these shows a true celebration.”

The North American leg of Townsend’s PowerNerd tour kicks off at the Marathon Music Works in Nashville, TN, on May 2, and wraps up in Los Angeles on May 23. Support on all dates comes from Tesseract.

John 5 Previews His New Kiss Museum: Exclusive Interview

You wanted the best? Motley Crue guitarist John 5 wants to show it to you.

Kiss fans can check out John’s collection of more than 2,500 items that he’s amassed over the years including the last known pair of boots owned by Gene Simmons from the Destroyer era as well as his first tour outfit from ’74. Tours of his museum begin in May and will be conducted personally by 5, who is looking forward to the experience. “it’s taken an absolute lifetime to do this. It really has,” he tells UCR in an interview you can listen to below. “I started collecting when I was a kid, but when I decided to do a museum, it’s taken a couple of years, just putting it together.”

“You have to document everything. You have to really get into detail and talk about everything and have everything correct [with] the right years and the right months,” he continues. “I’ve got all of these tickets, passes, buttons from all over the world. Records and magazines from all over the world. Promoter shirts, jackets and towels, it’s just endless. So it’s a lot of work and it’s been overwhelming, but I’m really happy.”

John 5 Talks About His New Kiss Museum

John’s Early Kiss Memories

The guitarist had to wait a few years before he finally got a chance to see them live. “I didn’t see them [in the ’70s] because I was too young. I remember [for the] Dynasty [album], they were coming to town, but I was too young and my parents wouldn’t let me go,” he shares. “The first time I saw them was Lick It Up, so they had just taken their makeup off. I was so excited [at that time]. I saw them every tour after Lick It Up, but when I saw them on the reunion tour [in 1996] with their makeup and everything, I was shocked. I couldn’t believe it, you know, it was incredible. It really was incredible. I was like, ‘Oh my God.’ It was like seeing them in ’78 or something like that.”

Kiss Fans Have Helped His Collection Grow

“A lot of collectors now are getting older, that collected maybe when they were teenagers in the ’70s. They’re getting older [now], and they’re like, ‘Well, I’ve had it for this many years now. I’m going to let it go,'” he says. “A lot of people, luckily, contact me on my Instagram.  I’ll read the messages and I’ll get a hold of people if I don’t have certain things. These armbands that they would wear [as an example], I got them from this guy in Japan. He got a hold of me and said, ‘I got these from the management company when Kiss came to Japan. They gifted me these after the tour.’ It’s kind of a hard story to believe, because people can make up anything. But I got the cuffs and my friend said, ‘John, I have the paperwork that the band’s management sent [those] to this guy in Japan. I have the actual telegrams from back in the day.’ You can see [things like that] in the museum. It’s really cool.”

There’s New John 5 Music Coming

In addition to his upcoming commitments with Motley Crue later this year, he’s also planning the release for his latest album with John 5 and the Creatures. “I haven’t talked about it yet, but it’s going to come out around October. It’s called Deviant,” he reveals. “I’m super proud of this record and I’ve worked on it for a long time. I think I’m going to Mexico and South America with the Creatures in June. I’ll have some of July off and then do some rehearsing with Motley in August,. [We play the] residency in September and then I have a big tour that I know I can’t talk [with the Creatures] about coming up in October. It’s going to be wonderful. I’m super-excited. There’s a lot going on, so I’m so happy.”

Top 10 ’80s Rolling Stones Songs

The ’80s were somehow the best and worst of times for the Rolling Stones.

At the beginning of the decade, the band was still riding the commercial high of 1978’s Some Girls. There were massive, extremely lucrative tours of the U.S., a memorable and historic concert with one of the band’s heroes, Muddy Waters, and they celebrated their 20th anniversary in 1982.

But before long, it became clear that tensions within the band were bubbling up to the surface. It’s in the ’80s that Mick Jagger and Keith Richards grew the furthest apart they had probably ever been in their career as bandmates and, on a more personal level, as friends. Though the Stones continued recording and releasing albums through the decade, the work was not without a great deal of effort.

By the end of the ’80s, Jagger and Richards appeared to have reconciled as best they could and things began looking up. The Stones were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and their concerts got even bigger.

Most Rolling Stones fans don’t point to the ’80s as being the band’s most prolific or productive era, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t drop some gems along the way. Below, we’re taking a look at 10 of the best in chronological order.

1. “Emotional Rescue”
From: Emotional Rescue (1980)

Emotional Rescue is sometimes described as a dance record, and a lot of that can be boiled down to the sort of rhythm section you hear on its title track. A thick bass line — played by Ronnie Wood in this case — and a rock steady four-on-the-floor drum beat. “My thing whenever I play is to make it a dance sound,” Charlie Watts once said, “it should swing and bounce.” This song most definitely does that.

2. “Down in the Hole”
From: Emotional Rescue (1980)

If there’s one thing the Rolling Stones love, it’s the blues. “Down in the Hole” might be one of the very best examples across the band’s entire catalog of their ability to write a downright agonizing blues song, which undoubtedly came from being students of the genre for years and years. “If you don’t know the blues,” Richards once said, “there’s no point in picking up the guitar and playing rock and roll or any other form of popular music.” It helped, of course, to have someone like Sugar Blue, a legendary blues harmonica player, contribute to “Down in the Hole.”

3. “Waiting on a Friend”
From: Tattoo You (1981)

Tattoo You counts for this list in the sense that the album was released in the ’80s, but much of the material on it was pulled from the previous decade. The Stones started working on “Waiting on a Friend,” for example, way back in 1972. The song had no lyrics then, and it wasn’t until the band began putting together Tattoo You that Jagger added the words. And once again, the only thing better than a Stones song is a Stones song with a contribution from a titan of industry, this time in the form of a saxophone solo by Sonny Rollins.

4. “Start Me Up”
From: Tattoo You (1981)

Songwriters who have been around long enough will likely tell you never to throw anything away — you never know when a new kind of inspiration will strike you and the idea will complete itself. This is what happened with the Stones’ “Start Me Up,” one of their most iconic tracks but one that got left on the back burner for years. “Start Me Up” began its life as a reggae-esque track in 1976. “I was convinced that was a reggae song. Everybody else was convinced of that: ‘It’s reggae, man,'” Richards told Guitar World in 2020. “We did 45 takes like that.” But something just wasn’t working out. It was set aside until 1981 when the band finally finished it as a more traditional rock ‘n’ roll number.

5. “Undercover of the Night”
From: Undercover (1983)

Undercover is not exactly the most cohesive of Rolling Stones albums, which is probably because of the aforementioned rising tensions between band members. That being said, it shouldn’t be entirely overlooked. The album’s leadoff track, “Undercover of the Night,” is a rare instance of Jagger overtly addressing some political ideas — “Make sure the pass laws are not broken,” he doesn’t sing so much as declare, “the race militia has got itchy fingers.” The percussive work here is particularly memorable, a definite high point on an album that certainly wasn’t the Stones’ best offering.

6. “Too Tough”
From: Undercover (1983)

On an album that seems to touch on a little bit of everything, “Too Tough” is the song that probably best embodies the classic Rolling Stones sound and attitude. And by that we mean: a strong drum beat from Watts with just enough hi-hat, a rhythm guitar part that can only be described as Keef chords and some questionable lyrics from Jagger that involve a teenage bride.

7. “I Think I’m Going Mad”
From: 1984 B-side Single

Here’s a bit of a deeper cut. “I Think I’m Going Mad” was an outtake from the Emotional Rescue sessions, which ultimately found a place as the B-side to the 1984 single “She Was Hot.” It’s an awfully compelling bluesy shuffle about growing older, the highs and lows of life and getting through it the best you can.

8. “Harlem Shuffle”
From: Dirty Work (1986)

If you thought Undercover was unorganized, try Dirty Work. At this point, getting all the members of the Rolling Stones in one studio to record didn’t happen all that often, which, for a band that prided itself on sticking together, did not work well for them. However, their cover of “Harlem Shuffle” deserves a spot on this list for being a surprisingly catchy song that sounds the most like the Stones agreeing on something. Of course, it helps that they recruited some cool people to contribute to the track: Ivan Neville with some additional bass, guitar and organ, plus people like Jimmy Cliff, Patti Scialfa and Tom Waits in the backing vocals. Say what you will about Dirty Work, “Harlem Shuffle” is a great example of the Stones bringing a new sound to an old song.

9. “Mixed Emotions”
From: Steel Wheels (1989)

Steel Wheels is where the Stones starting getting their groove back, particularly as it related to Jagger and Richards’ working relationship. It made for some catchy singles, including “Mixed Emotions,” which featured backing singers Sarah Dash, Lisa Fischer and Bernard Fowler. (The latter two would become longtime members of the Stones’ touring lineup.) And the horns were by a group called the Kick Horns, who have worked with everyone from Eric Clapton to Beyonce.

10. “Rock and a Hard Place”
From: Steel Wheels (1989)

The best Rolling Stones songs are the ones that immediately make you want to get on your feet. “Rock and a Hard Place,” even with its very ’80s-sounding production, is one of them. “This is one of those songs like ‘Start Me Up’ where the minute you hear the opening notes, you head for the dance floor,” Jagger once said of it. “It’s real ’70s, in the best possible way.” It was a No. 23 hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

Complete List Of As I Lay Dying Songs From A to Z

As I Lay Dying was formed in San Diego, California in 2000 by vocalist Tim Lambesis, who quickly established the band’s vision as a project rooted in the aggressive precision of metalcore. With a mission to merge melody and heaviness in a way that stood apart from other bands of the era, Lambesis began writing material that would lead to their debut album Beneath the Encasing of Ashes, released in 2001 on Pluto Records. While initially a studio-driven project, the band solidified its lineup and took to the road in support of the album, building a foundation in the underground metal scene through relentless touring and high-energy performances.

In 2003, the band signed with Metal Blade Records and released their sophomore album Frail Words Collapse, which brought them greater visibility thanks to singles like “94 Hours” and “Forever.” The album marked a turning point in their career, expanding their audience and helping define their signature blend of breakdown-heavy rhythms and melodic lead guitar work. Their constant touring efforts during this period—supporting acts like Shadows Fall and Lamb of God—cemented their reputation as one of the most consistent and technically proficient bands in metalcore.

2005 saw the release of Shadows Are Security, a major step forward for the band both musically and commercially. With tracks such as “Confined” and “Through Struggle,” the album brought them to a new level of critical and fan acclaim. Produced by Tim Lambesis and Phil Sgrosso with engineering assistance from Steve Russell, the album debuted at number 35 on the Billboard 200, a rare feat for a metalcore band at the time. The release was supported by their appearance on Ozzfest, which played a key role in broadening their mainstream reach.

In 2007, As I Lay Dying released An Ocean Between Us, which marked the band’s biggest commercial success up to that point. The album debuted at number eight on the Billboard 200 and featured the single “Nothing Left,” which earned the band their first Grammy nomination in the Best Metal Performance category. Other tracks such as “The Sound of Truth” and “Within Destruction” highlighted the group’s evolution into more complex songwriting and tighter production. The album’s success pushed the band into headlining status and earned them numerous accolades in metal circles.

They followed with The Powerless Rise in 2010, which continued their upward trajectory. Once again working with producer Adam Dutkiewicz of Killswitch Engage, the band created a collection of songs that balanced aggressive intensity with refined melody. Tracks like “Anodyne Sea” and “Parallels” showcased their maturity as songwriters, while maintaining the core sound that had drawn fans in from the beginning. The album was critically well received and further cemented their place in the upper echelon of modern metal bands.

Their sixth studio album, Awakened, was released in 2012 and marked yet another strong entry in their catalog. Songs such as “A Greater Foundation” and “Resilience” showed a band that was still driven and inspired, more than a decade into their career. But that same year, the band’s trajectory took an abrupt and dramatic turn when Lambesis was arrested in a murder-for-hire plot involving his estranged wife. He pleaded guilty in 2014 and served a prison sentence, leading the band to go on hiatus while the remaining members formed a new group, Wovenwar.

After Lambesis’s release and subsequent public apology, As I Lay Dying reunited in 2018 with their original lineup, releasing the single “My Own Grave,” which was praised for its honesty and musical intensity. In 2019, they released Shaped by Fire, which served as both a comeback and a statement of intent. The album was met with strong reviews and showed that, musically, the band had lost none of its edge. Despite ongoing debates among fans and critics about Lambesis’s return, the band continued to tour and record, adapting their lineup and remaining active in the scene.

Over the course of their career, As I Lay Dying has released seven studio albums and one compilation, and has been nominated for multiple industry awards, including a Grammy. Their influence on metalcore is undeniable, marked by their technical musicianship, precise arrangements, and ability to evolve without abandoning their roots. Despite controversies, lineup changes, and internal challenges, they remain one of the most well-known and discussed bands to come out of the early 2000s metalcore explosion.

“It’s gonna be killer. What we’re doing is cool.” Kerry King has picked the Black Sabbath song that Slayer will cover at Sabbath’s Back To The Beginning show, and says it’s an “honour’ for Slayer to pay tribute to the Godfathers of Metal

Kerry King says that it’s an honour for Slayer to be able to be a part of Black Sabbath‘s farewell show, and he’s already picked the Sabbath song that the Los Angeles thrash kings will cover in Birmingham on July 5.

Speaking about Slayer’s participation in the Back To The Beginning show with Rolling Stone Brasil, as transcribed by Blabbermouth, the 60-year-old guitarist says, “It’s such an honour to even be thought of to play that, and I’m glad we were actually in the ‘working mode’ so we can get that offer. It’s gonna be awesome.”

Though the exact format of the spectacular gig, which features a who’s who of hard rock and heavy metal – Metallica, Pantera, Anthrax, Guns N’ Roses, Tool, Gojira, Mastodon and more – paying tribute to both Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne, has yet to be revealed, it seems that every artist on the bill will cover a classic song by the Godfathers of Metal.

“I drug my feet and picked our song really late, when there weren’t as many obvious choices,” says King. “But the one I picked is gonna work out really cool. I worked it out with my [solo] band, so me and Paul [Bostaph, Slayer and Kerry King drummer] could rehearse it. So we’ve already got it. We’ve just gotta get [Slayer vocalist/bassist] Tom [Araya] and Gary [Holt] on board whenever – probably in June we will rehearse for that. It’s gonna be killer. What we’re doing is cool.”

The Back To The Beginning, which will see the original Sabbath lineup – Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward – shared a stage for the first time since 2005, was announced in February.

As well as the aforementioned artists, the show feature performances from a ‘supergroup’ composed of Billy Corgan (The Smashing Pumpkins), Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit), Papa V Perpetua (Ghost) and many others. Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine) is acting as the event’s musical director.

“We have a very, very simple goal,” Morello said earlier this year, “and that’s to make this the greatest day in the history of heavy metal. And to that end, you’ve probably seen the listed setlist. And let me tell you, there’s some huge superstars who are gonna be surprises on that day too. So, the idea is to really acknowledge the importance of that band in a way that the whole world will forever know.”

Actor Jason Momoa (Aquaman, Game Of Thrones) will compere the mega-gig.

David Thomas, frontman for Cleveland experimental rock band Pere Ubu, and formerly Rocket From The Tombs, has died. The singer was 71.

The news of Thomas’ passing was shared on the band’s Facebook page.

The statement reads:

“David Thomas, June 14 1953 – April 23 2025.

“David Lynn Thomas, lead singer of Pere Ubu, Rocket From The Tombs and multiple solo projex, has died after a long illness.

“On Wednesday, April 23 2025, he died in his home town of Brighton & Hove, with his wife and youngest step-daughter by his side. MC5 were playing on the radio. He will ultimately be returned to his home, the farm in Pennsylvania, where he insisted he was to be “thrown in the barn.”

“David Thomas and his band have been recording a new album. He knew it was to be his last. We will endeavour to continue with mixing and finalising the new album so that his last music is available to all. Aside from that, he left instruction that the work should continue to catalog all the tapes from live shows via the official bandcamp page. His autobiography was nearly completed and we will finish that for him. Pere Ubu’s Patreon will continue as a community, run by communex.

“We’ll leave you with his own words, which sums up who he was better than we can – ‘My name is David Fucking Thomas… and I’m the lead singer of the best fucking rock n roll band in the world.’
(Frigo Documentary)

“Long Live Pere Ubu.”

The experimental and boundary-breaking Pere Ubu formed in Cleveland, Ohio in 1975, following the break-up of garage rockers Rocket From The Tombs, with guitarist Cheetah Chrome and drummer Johnny Blitz going on to form the Dead Boys.

Thomas was the only constant member of Pere Ubu, who described their raucous, free-wheeling sound as “avant-garage”, with Rolling Stone judging their influential 1978 debut album The Modern Dance “harsh and wilfully ugly”. Writing in Classic Rock in 2004, journalist Malcolm Dome called the record, “a touchstone of art-rock genius, a true masterpiece”, adding “without this album, much of the more esoteric rock music recorded in the decades since would have simply remained unheard.”

Thomas, however, once claimed to Prog magazine that Pere Ubu are actually a mainstream act, sayinhg, “You can trace a straight line from the very beginnings, let’s say Heartbreak Hotel, to Brian Wilson to Lou Reed. Into the 70s there was a greater maturity of narrative, of the language of music and the development of technique. Everything was evolving and moving forward. Pere Ubu joined that straight line.”

Trouble on Big Beat Street, the group’s 19th and most recent album, was released in 2023.

Complete List Of Stevie Ray Vaughan Songs From A to Z

Complete List Of Stevie Ray Vaughan Songs From A to Z

Stevie Ray Vaughan grew up in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas, Texas, where the sounds of blues and rock and roll echoed through the neighborhoods and into his soul. Inspired by his older brother Jimmie Vaughan, Stevie picked up the guitar at a young age and immersed himself in the music of legends like Albert King, Muddy Waters, and Jimi Hendrix. By his teenage years, he was playing in local bands and dropping out of high school to focus entirely on music. He eventually made his way to Austin, where his band Double Trouble began attracting serious attention, laying the groundwork for a career that would change the trajectory of modern blues.

The turning point came in 1982 when Vaughan’s band performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival, an appearance that caught the attention of David Bowie and Jackson Browne. Browne offered studio time, which led to the recording of Texas Flood, released in 1983 on Epic Records. Backed by bassist Tommy Shannon and drummer Chris Layton, Vaughan exploded onto the national scene with tracks like “Pride and Joy,” “Love Struck Baby,” and his jaw-dropping instrumental “Rude Mood.” His tone, touch, and phrasing reintroduced the blues to mainstream rock audiences and earned him a Grammy nomination for Best Traditional Blues Recording.

Vaughan released four studio albums during his lifetime: Texas Flood (1983), Couldn’t Stand the Weather (1984), Soul to Soul (1985), and In Step (1989). Each album built on his ferocious style and deepened his artistic scope. Songs like “Cold Shot,” “Look at Little Sister,” and “Crossfire” became signature tracks, combining Texas blues with funk, jazz, and rock influences. In Step, his final studio release before his death, was particularly personal, marking his first album after achieving sobriety. That record earned him a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Blues Album and is often regarded as a creative peak.

Despite his rising fame, Vaughan remained grounded in his roots. His live performances were electric, often featuring extended improvisations and emotionally raw solos. He recorded the acclaimed Live Alive (1986) and collaborated with his brother Jimmie Vaughan on Family Style, which was released posthumously in 1990. Tragically, Stevie Ray Vaughan’s career was cut short on August 27, 1990, when he died in a helicopter crash after a concert in East Troy, Wisconsin. He was only 35 years old. The shock of his sudden death reverberated across the music world, and tributes poured in from artists across genres.

Even after his passing, Vaughan’s legacy continued to grow. Posthumous releases such as The Sky Is Crying (1991) and Live at Carnegie Hall (1997) expanded his discography, introducing new generations to his powerful blend of technique and emotion. He has received six Grammy Awards (including posthumous wins) and ten Austin Music Awards, and he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 alongside Double Trouble. His influence can be heard in countless guitarists who came after him, and his Stratocaster tone remains one of the most admired in rock history.

Beyond the guitar, Vaughan’s personal story of battling addiction and reclaiming his life gave hope to fans dealing with similar struggles. His candidness about recovery, especially in his later interviews and the lyrics of In Step, made him a beacon for those seeking strength through change. While his life was brief, his message was lasting: the blues, when played with honesty and heart, can lift and heal.

Vaughan also made time to support fellow musicians, mentor younger artists, and promote the blues as a living, breathing art form. He helped bridge the gap between generations of blues artists, working with greats like Albert King and Buddy Guy, while also opening doors for modern players to embrace traditional roots. His performance with Jeff Beck on their co-headlining tour remains one of the most revered guitar partnerships ever captured onstage.

Stevie Ray Vaughan’s name remains etched in the granite of blues-rock history, not only for what he played but for how he played it—with intensity, grace, and soul. His recordings continue to resonate with those who believe that great music is more than sound—it’s truth, unfiltered and unforgettable.
