50-year-old musician James Blunt promises to change his name – under one special condition. The fans are enthusiastic and provide creative suggestions.

As Sky News reports, “James Blunt promises to legally change his name to the public’s favorite suggestion.” However, there is a catch.

This only happens if the reissue of his debut album “Back to Bedlam” reaches the top of the charts.

James Blunt: Creative name suggestions from fans

The fans didn’t need to be asked twice and were overwhelmed with suggestions. “Sky News” reports: “The most popular suggestion at the time of publication was Blunty McBluntface.”

This is, of all things, the name that Blunt explicitly rejected in an earlier interview.

The action shows Blunt’s sense of humor and his willingness to break with convention. It remains to be seen whether fans will actually manage to push the album to the top of the charts.

The name change is part of a larger campaign. People explains: “Blunt will re-release his 2004 debut album this month.”

The album celebrates its 20th anniversary and contains hits such as “You’re Beautiful”.

Linkin Park Announces New Singer, Album and World Tour

by Ethan Caldwell
written by Ethan Caldwell

Linkin Park are officially back with new members, a new album and a new world tour – find out more below.

Today (September 5), the band held a livestream event where they introduced two new members – vocalist Emily Armstrong, formerly of Dead Sara, and songwriter and new drummer Colin Brittain in place of Rob Bourdon.

Along with their return, Linkin Park also announced a new album, “From Zero.” It will be their first album since 2017’s “One More Light,” which was the last to feature the late singer Chester Bennington.

“From Zero” is set to drop on November 15th and is available for pre-order now. The album is preceded by a single, “The Emptiness Machine,” which is available on streaming platforms now, and will receive a music video shortly after their live event concludes.

Today, the band also announced a short world tour that will include six stadium shows around the world between September and November of this year. The tour will kick off at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on September 11. Other stops include New York, Germany, London, South Korea and Colombia.

Linkin Park’s Underground LP fan club pre-sales begin tomorrow, September 6, with general tickets going live on September 7 via the official Linkin Park website.

Linkin Park’s 2024 “From Zero” tour dates are:

SEPTEMBER
11 – Kia Forum – Los Angeles, California
16 – Barclays Center – New York, New York State
22 – Barclays Arena – Hamburg, Germany
24 – The O2 – London, United Kingdom
28 – INSPIRE Arena – Seoul, South Korea

NOVEMBER
11 – Medplus Coliseum – Bogota, Colombia

Linkin Park’s setlist for “From Zero” is:

  1. ‘From Zero’ (intro)
  2. “The vacuum machine”
  3. “Cut the bridge”
  4. “Heavy is the crown”
  5. “One on top of the other”
  6. ‘Victim’
  7. ‘Overflow’
  8. “Two-faced”
  9. ‘Colored’
  10. ‘IGIEH’
  11. “Good things are going well”

Shortly before the live stream, the band also announced on X (formerly Twitter) that their live event would be broadcast at London’s Shoreditch High Street Station and New York’s Times Square.

Prior to the announcement, Linkin Park had launched a mysterious countdown on its social media accounts that was set to end on August 28. It included a link to Linkin Park’s official website, which led to the live countdown, as well as an email subscription box and a link to a My Community phone chat.

Then, when the countdown ended on August 28, fans were left baffled as it immediately started counting down again after reaching zero. The band then shared the countdown with the caption, “It’s only a matter of time…” The clock then displayed a glitch at nine hours and five minutes, leading fans to speculate that it would be a September 5 release. Sum 41 vocalist Deryck Whibley, who had announced his own exit on August 28, had to release a statement confirming that he would not be joining the band.

Earlier today (September 5), it was revealed that fans who had been invited to attend the event had been required to sign a waiver beforehand to ensure that any details shared were kept to themselves until the live event began.

The Rills Announce Debut Album ‘Don’t Be A Stranger’ With Euphoric Single ‘Angel In The Snow’

by Ethan Caldwell
written by Ethan Caldwell

The Rills have announced the upcoming release of their debut album ‘Don’t Be A Stranger’, along with a catchy new single ‘Angel In The Snow’.

Earlier this year, Lincoln released the single “I Don’t Wanna Be,” which they described as “a story of unapologetic self-affirmation and overcoming the limiting mentality of small-town life.”

They’ve now shared the final track from their upcoming debut album. ‘Angel In The Snow’ sees them leaving on a bittersweet note, with anthemic guitars and poignant lyricism.Angel in the snow, you can’t melt / Never seen again, but I know you won’t”, sings singer Mitch Spencer in the chorus.

“The overriding feeling I get from listening to this song is hope,” Spencer explains. “It’s one of the more melancholic songs on the album, but it has a sense of closure. It’s definitive.” He describes the track as “the best snapshot of the whole album: self-aware, angsty, but ultimately hopeful.”

“Don’t Be A Stranger” is set for release on November 1st via AWAL and Nice Swan Recordings. You can pre-order here.

Check out “Angel In The Snow” below, along with the artwork and tracklist for “Don’t Be A Stranger.”

The track listing for “Don’t Be A Stranger” is:

  1. “Seasickness”
  2. “I don’t want to be”
  3. ‘To drive’
  4. “Your father’s car”
  5. ‘Error’
  6. “Point of view”
  7. ‘Os’
  8. “I dream of you”
  9. “Sirens”
  10. ‘Stranger’
  11. “Angels in the Snow”

In 2021, the group spoke with ZikNation on how growing up in Lincoln impacted their music. Citing his heroes, bassist Callum Warner Webb told us that Arctic Monkeys’ 2006 song “Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But…” sums up what he thinks of The Rills.

“Alex Turner sings about the advice he gets from people who tell him to just play local pub gigs,” he explains. “It makes you think, ‘No, I’m not going to limit myself to a situation where it makes sense to be in a band in a small town. I’m going to completely go against that idea, even if it kills me.’”

“As a fellow Yellowbelly Lincolnite, this writer has literally been there, but you don’t need to have seen our cathedral city to get goosebumps when this surprise mandolin kicks in and makes small-town life all the more epic.”

Swift’s new album set the record for the most streamed debut album in history. The total number of official streams for the 31 songs on the album reached 891.37 million streams in its first week of release alone.

Speaking of these numbers, Swift thanked her fans on the “X” stage, saying: “I’m so amazed by the love you’ve shown for this album 2.6 million hail the record.”

The album “The Tortured Poets Oath” came in four different versions, each of which had a special bonus track, on CD, cassette and vinyl. Special copies of vinyl and CDs were sold to Tagit stores, as well as a limited edition disc presented by the American star on her website.
