A new track from Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Josh Homme, titled ‘Nobody To Love’, has hit the internet – scroll down to the bottom of the page and click to listen.

The song, which was co-written by composer and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds producer Dave Sardy, is featured in the new film End Of Watch featuring Jake Gyllenhaal, but has now also surfaced on YouTube.

Recently, Homme has been locked in a legal dispute with members of his former band Kyuss. Singer John Garcia and drummer Brant Bjork took a reincarnated incarnation of the band called Kyuss Lives! on the road last year and spoke about the possibility of recording a new studio album.

In March of this year, however, they were sued by the Queens Of The Stone Age singer and another former Kyuss member, Scott Reeder, for alleged “trademark infringement, misrepresentation [and] false designation”.

Josh Homme was the original guitarist in Kyuss until their split in 1995. In December last year, Homme said that Queens Of The Stone Age were “locked away in the desert” working on a new album and claimed that the new material sounded “killer”. The LP, which will be their sixth studio record and the follow-up to 2007’s ‘Era Vulgaris’, was originally expected to be released later this year.

Legendary Paisley Underground band, The Rain Parade, are to reunite for the first time in 25 years to play a benefit concert for Bobby Sutliff, singer/guitarist for ’80s contemporaries The Windbreakers, who was seriously injured in a car accident over the summer.

The show will take place on January 19, 2013, at Atlanta, GA venue, The Earl.

According to a post on Rain Parade singer-guitarist Matt Piucci‘s Facebook page, this might not be the only show for the reformed band. Piucci wrote, “Rain Parade needs a great drummer. … Not a ton of gigs planned, but cool ones.” He also suggested European concerts are in the works: “Fully intend to cross the pond in 2013.”

There is no confirmation yet as to whether the reunited line-up will include original guitarist/vocalist David Roback, who went on to form Opal and Mazzy Star after leaving the band in 1983, following the release of the band’s first album Emergency Third Rail Power Trip.

Crosby Stills & Nash will close their 80-date world tour next month with a gala performance of their debut album in its entirety at the Beacon Theatre in New York City.

The date – October 22 – is the fifth and final date of a run of shows at the venue next month (October 16, 17, 19, 20). At the October 22 show, CSN will perform their 1969 debut album, Crosby, Stills & Nash, in full — with songs including “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,” “Marrakesh Express” and “Guinnevere”. This is the first time the band has ever performed an album in its entirety on stage.

“Only recently we were able to play ‘Suite: Judy Blue Eyes’ after 20 years,” David Crosby recently told MusicRadar.com. “Stephen got into a good place and started being able to do it. We tried it by ourselves, then we played it live, and people went batshit. They were literally going out of their gourds. So we thought, Hey, that’s pretty cool. If we could do that, we could certainly do all the other stuff. The suite’s the hard one.”

The group recently released CSN 2012, a 25-song set on Blu-ray and DVD, presenting CSN’s first live performance film in more than 20 years.

Neil Young has revealed that discovering that Kurt Cobain’s suicide note contained a reference to one of his lyrics “fucked” with him.

Former Nirvana frontman Cobain took his own life in 1994 and, in the final letter he left to his fans, friends and family, reprinted the phrase “It’s better to burn out than to fade away” from Young’s track “Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black)“.

Writing in his new autobiography Waging Heavy Peace, Young admitted that reading the missive had left him scarred, writing: “When he died and left that note, it struck a deep chord inside of me. It fucked with me.”

The singer also revealed that he had tried to get in touch with Cobain before his death in an attempt to help him conquer his problems, adding: “I, coincidentally, had been trying to reach him. I wanted to talk to him. Tell him only to play when he felt like it.”

Earlier this month, Young revealed that he quit booze and drugs one year ago in order to write his memoir. Discussing his decision to give up drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in order to write his memoir, he said: “I did it for 40 years. Now I want to see what it’s like to not do it. It’s just a different perspective.”

Neil Young And Crazy Horse release their second album of this year, Psychedelic Pill, on October 29.

The Beach Boys‘ Al Jardine has asked fans to sign a petition to champion the Beach Boys’ full reunited line-up, over bandmate Mike Love’s version of the band without the other three members.

Love has previously revealed plans to continue touring under the Beach Boys name after the band’s current 50th anniversary, which ends in London tomorrow (September 28).

Al Jardine has called on fans to sign the petition against Love’s “money-saving, stripped-down version” of the band, The Guardian reports. The petition, which calls on Love to “reinstate the 3 other members to the touring group for your final years performing” has nearly 4,000 electronic signatures at present.

Meanwhile, Brian Wilson has told CNN that he is gutted Love won’t tour with the rest of the band. “I’m disappointed and can’t understand why Mike doesn’t want to tour with Al, David and me,” he said. “After all, we are the real Beach Boys.”

Wilson was previously opposed to a reunion, but the recent tour and album That’s Why God Made The Radio seems to have garnered some enthusiasm.

Wilson previously said he wants to make a new “exciting rock and roll album” to follow up the reunion record, which could be released next year. However, Love has now said he would only be interested in recording another album if he could “write some songs with Brian”. The pair only collaborated on three songs on the last LP.

Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose has demanded that an LA photographer closes her art exhibition as it includes a defamatory picture of him.

TMZ reports that Rose is livid after learning that Laura London’s ‘Once Upon A Time… Axl Rose Was My Neighbour’ collection includes a photo of what she claims is Rose’s garage door spray-painted with the words ‘Sweet Child Of Die’.

London has claimed that the controversial rocker daubed the door himself with the phrase after a spat with his former wife Erin Everly but, in a statement issued through his lawyers, Rose denied that the property pictured in the snap belonged to him.

The letter from his legal representatives reads: Mr. Rose never spray-painted anything. Your salacious and inflammatory statements are plainly designed to garner attention and line your pockets with money.

TMZ also notes that while London has amended the description which originally accompanied the photograph since receiving the letter from Rose’s lawyers, the picture itself still remains on display.

Rose hasn’t enjoyed much luck with the legal system recently, however – last month, he suffered a huge blow in his bid to secure $20million (£13.3million) in damages from Activision, the makers of the Guitar Hero video games. The singer had claimed that Activision had fraudulently induced him into allowing them use of Guns N’ Roses’ ‘Welcome To The Jungle’ in Guitar Hero III, and that the game’s makers had included a character modelled on his former bandmate Slash, despite telling him that the game wouldn’t feature any reference to Slash or his band, Velvet Revolver.

On August 14, though, a judge dismissed Rose’s claim that he had been fraudulently induced, but did set a trial date of February next year to hear his claim that Activision is in breach of contract.

Meanwhile, the current line-up of Guns N’ Roses recently announced that they will be playing a 12-date residency at the Las Vegas’ Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in October.

The rockers will play a run of shows titled the ‘Appetite For Democracy’ residency and have promised to deliver a lengthy and career-spanning setlist at each of the shows. The shows begin on October 31 and then take place on November 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 14, 17, 18, 21, 23 and 24.

Two guitars stolen at a Sonic Youth gig in 1999 have been returned, 13 years later.

The band’s rented truck full of their equipment was stolen in the middle of the night before a festival appearance in Orange County. The truck was later found in Los Angeles, empty.

However, over the years, fans of the band have remained diligent to try and recover the lost gear, which had been heavily modified by the band after guitarist Lee Ranaldo issued a plea at the time. Several have already cropped up, but this month the sixth and seventh guitars both mysteriously appeared, according to Pitchfork.

Ranaldo said: “It’s kind of wild. After all this time, things are still surfacing thanks to the diligence of fans.”

A white Jazzmaster, used by Thurston Moore on songs including “Bull In The Heather” and “Dirty Boots” was picked up by a fan in Belgium on eBay. The other, Ranaldo’s Jazzmaster used on A Thousand Leaves’ “French Tickler” was discovered for sale in a pawn shop and discovered in a thread on guitar forum OffsettGuitars.

Sonic Youth will release a new live album, recorded in August 1985 at Chicago’s Smart Bar. The album was recorded on a four-track tape recorder and will be released on November 14 via the band’s label Goofin’ Records.

In October last year, Moore and his partner Kim Gordon announced they would be separating after 27 years of marriage. The announcement raised doubts over the future of Sonic Youth after Matador revealed that plans for the band remained “uncertain”.

Jailed Russian punk collective Pussy Riot have spoken out about their time in prison and claimed they had been spending their time reading the Bible.

Nadia Tolokonnikova, Maria Alekhina and Yekaterina Samutsevich received two-year prison sentences on August 17 after being found guilty of hooliganism motivated by religious hatred – and in an interview with GQ, Tolokonnikova revealed that the only text she had been able to read to stave off boredom was the Christian tome.

“Prison is a good place to learn to really listen to your own mind and your own body,” she said. “I’ve learned to read much more deeply, for instance. For four months, I had nothing to read but the Bible, so I read it for all four months – diligently, picking everything apart.”

She added: “Prison is like a monastery – it’s a place for ascetic practices. After a month here, I became a vegetarian. Walking in circles for an hour in that tiny dusty yard gets you into a pretty meditative state as well. We don’t get much in the way of news. But enough to get inspired.”

When asked about a report published in a Moscow newspaper which alleged that the three women had been enjoying ‘VIP’ treatment in prison, meanwhile, she responded: “Did Auschwitz have VIP death lounges? If yes, then I suppose you can call our conditions VIP treatment.”

She also spoke about the support the band had received from the Western world, adding: “I still can’t shake the feeling that I’ve spent the last six months acting in a big-budget movie. The amount of Western support that we got is a miracle. I believe that if Russia had independent national media, our performance would be better understood at home as well.

“Right now we’re in hell here. It’s hard living in a place where everyone can hate you because of something they heard on TV. That’s why every gesture of support is so important and so much appreciated.”

The three jailed women’s case is up for appeal on October 1. Meanwhile, other members of Pussy Riot recently delivered a video message to their supporters, which you can watch below. The video features members of the collective abseiling down a wall before setting fire to an image of President Vladimir Putin.

“We’ve been fighting for the right to sing, to think, to criticise,” they say. “To be musicians and artists ready to do everything to change our country. No matter the risks, we go on with our musical fight in Russia”.

“Start the pussy riot and never stop,” they conclude. “The fight for freedom is an endless battle that is bigger than life.”

Ronnie Wood has angrily denied claims that he has teamed up with his ex-wife to auction off stacks of Rolling Stones memorabilia.

It was reported earlier today that Wood and his former spouse Jo, who separated in 2011 following allegations that Wood had an extra-marital affair with a waitress – were selling off their shared possessions, which included a wealth of Rolling Stones-related items.

The collection spans four decades of the band’s history and includes everything from custom-painted Fender Stratocasters, tour clothing and backstage passes to portraits painted by Wood of fellow rock elder statesmen Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton and Keith Richards.

However, a representative for Wood has released a statement insisting that he has nothing to do with the auction. “Ronnie was asked by Jo some time ago if he wished to add some items to an auction and he said he did not want to participate,” they said. “He is therefore shocked and disappointed that this auction is being misrepresented as a joint sale. This is not the case.”

They added: “Furthermore he is staggered that some of the items being offered at the auction are clearly his personal belongings, which did not pass to Jo as part of the divorce proceedings.

“The Tour Clothes being offered belong to The Rolling Stones and are not hers to sell. Ronnie feels saddened that Jo has taken this course of action and wants the public to know he has NOT teamed up with Jo on this outrageous sale.”

The goods are set to go under the hammer at Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills on October 27. Speaking earlier about the collection, the auction house’s Darren Julien predicted that the sale would go “very well”. He also seemingly contradicted Woods’ statement about the auction by claiming that the former spouses were “still very good friends” and had “just decided it was time to simplify and sell some of their property”.

The Rolling Stones will a brand new Greatest Hits compilation in November titled GRRR! in November. The collection, which is being released to coincide with the band’s 50th anniversary, will feature two brand new songs, “Gloom And Doom” and “One Last Shot”, which were recorded in Paris last month. This is the first new material the band have recorded since their 2005 album A Bigger Bang.

Andy Williams has died at the age of 84.

USA Today reports that the singer passed away at his home in Brnason, Missouri on Tuesday evening (September 25) following a lengthy battle with bladder cancer.

Williams revealed that he had been diagnosed with the illness in November last year and vowed to beat the disease and return to the stage, insisting that cancer was “no longer a death sentence”. But a representative for the singer has now confirmed that he has succumbed to the condition.

Williams scored his first hit single in 1953 and went on to put out 18 albums which were certified gold and three which were certified platinum. In total, he recorded 42 studio albums and became renowned as one of the most popular vocalists of the 60s.

In addition to his singing career, he also ran the Andy Williams Moon River Theater in his home town – named after the track with which he became closely associated – and in 1962 starred in his own TV programme, The Andy Williams show, which won three Emmy Awards.

His most recent hit single in the UK was a newly recorded version of “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”, which he re-recorded as a duet with singer Denise Van Outen. It reached Number 23 in 2002. Williams is survived by his wife, Debbie, and his three children, Robert, Noelle and Christian.

Feist has won the 2012 Polaris Music Prize, Canada’s answer to the Mercury, for her fourth album Metals.

The singer, who was also nominated for the record’s 2007 predecessor The Reminder, collected the $30,000 (£19,000) cheque at last night’s (September 24) prize gala in Toronto.

Feist accepted the award from Jeremy Gara and Tim Kingsbury of Arcade Fire, who won the gong in 2011, after lying on the floor in shock and shying away from a conventional speech.

She said: “I’ve been living in a tiny bubble on tour, where I don’t really know or see anything but the city in front of me. I’ve been really grateful tonight, and learned so much about the amazing stuff that was going on. Every single band that was up here, not to mention every band on the shortlist – not to mention so many bands that didn’t make the shortlist – belonged to be here tonight, and belong to be standing here… with a novelty cheque.”

In a post-gala press conference, Feist went on to compliment the “inspiring” performances of Cold Specks, Grimes, Cadence Weapon and Fucked Up, ultimately admitting that winning the top prize was “like getting a valentine from the right boy – the secret admirer”.

The ceremony took place at Toronto’s Masonic Temple and was dedicated to recently deceased Canadian record store-owner Sam ‘The Record Man’ Sniderman. Performances throughout the gala came from nominees Fucked Up, Cadence Weapon, Cold Specks, Kathleen Edwards, Grimes, YAMANTAKA // SONIC TITAN and Feist, although Drake had to withdraw due to illness. Grimes performed ‘Visions’ tracks ‘Symphonia IX (My Wait Is U)’ and ‘Genesis’ accompanied by a male pole-dancer called Gary, who wore black glitter hot-pants only.

Nine other shortlist nominees all received $2,000. The full list of nominees was:

Cadence Weapon – ‘Hope In Dirt City’

Cold Specks – ‘I Predict A Graceful Expulsion’

Drake – ‘Take Care’

Kathleen Edwards – ‘Voyageur’

Feist – ‘Metals’

Fucked Up – ‘David Comes To Life’

Grimes – ‘Visions’

Handsome Furs – ‘Sound Kapital’

Japandroids – ‘Celebration Rock’

YAMANTAKA // SONIC TITAN – ‘YT//ST’

The company behind Hop Farm and Benicassim festivals is preparing to go into administration.

Shares in Vince Power’s ailing Music Festivals company were worth 66.5p last June, valuing the company at £10m, but they were suspended at just 2.12p on Friday (September 21), making the company worth just £310,000, The Guardian reports.

The company’s prospects looked shaky at the beginning of the summer, when it told investors that ticket sales for Spanish bash Benicassim and Kent’s Hop Farm looked disappointing. Both events proved to be loss-making despite big-name headliners such as Bob Dylan.

In August, the company told investors that it expected to make losses for the year and admitted that it was looking for a financial lifeline. Last week, after the search had proved fruitless, it moved for its shares to be suspended.

“The board has in recent weeks pursued a number of different funding proposals but the company has not been able to procure the necessary funding it requires,” it said in a statement.

Power owns 23 per cent of the company and, along with relatives, the family stake adds up to more than 40 per cent. Power had also propped up the company with a £750,000 unsecured loan in July. Industry experts have cited the wet summer and an increasingly crowded festival market – there are now thought to be over 700 festivals taking place each year – as well as the Olympics for the company’s woes.

Power opened his first venue, Mean Fiddler, in north-west London in 1982. He opened many more venues and events, including London’s Forum and Reading festival, turning Mean Fiddler into the largest promoter in Europe. In 2002, he took operational control of Glastonbury for a three-year stint. He sold Mean Fiddler in 2005 for £38 million.

Meanwhile, Surrey music festival Guilfest will shut down after 21 years.

Organisers cite the worst weather conditions in its history this summer, and increased competition from other events as the main reasons for pulling the plug on the bash in Guilford, according to BBC News.

“I’d love to see Guilfest keep going, but I think it’s got to be somebody who takes the helm or somebody who would need deeper pockets,” organiser Tony Scott said. His company Scotty Events Ltd has been left with debts of around £300,000.

This year’s bash – which was headlined by Jools Holland, Ash, Olly Murs and Bryan Ferry – faced heavy rain over three days in July. “It rained on the Saturday and Sunday in 2011, but this year I’ve never known anything like it,” Scott said. “It was a quagmire by Saturday and [by] Sunday it had turned into sticky bog.”

He added: “There was a lot of competition this year. The Olympics were on, a lot of people were going to that…There was Tom Jones playing up the road at Sandown Park, Bruce Springsteen was playing in London, and there was an awful lot going on around our weekend as well as the bad weather.”

Neil Young has joined social networking site Twitter.

The legendary rocker revealed his account yesterday [September 25], and explained that he would be doing a Q&A session on the site ahead of the release of his new album, Psychedelic Pill. He wrote:

@neilyoung

Look forward to talking to all of you music lovers. Will be doing a #TwitterLegends Q&A with fans about #PsychPill before the release!

He also revealed a link to the official video for his and Crazy Horse’s new song, “Walk Like A Giant“. Scroll down to watch the video.

Earlier this month, Neil Young revealed that he quit booze and drugs one year ago. He gave up drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in order to write his memoir, Waging Heavy Peace, which comes out in the UK on October 11.

“I did it for 40 years. Now I want to see what it’s like to not do it,” said Young to the New York Times. “It’s just a different perspective.”

Neil Young And Crazy Horse release their second album of this year, Psychedelic Pill, on October 29. The album follows June’s covers LP Americana.

Scroll down to watch the trailer for the Rolling Stones new documentary, Crossfire Hurricane.

Crossfire Hurricane, will simultaneously premiere at a host of cinemas in the UK and Ireland on October 18.

The film, directed by Brett Morgen, documents the band’s career from their early road trips and gigs in the 1960s, via the release of 1972’s seminal ‘Exile On Main Street’ right up to present day.

Over 250 cinemas across the country will screen the movie live from the 2012 London Film Festival in London’s Leicester Square. The multi-cinema screenings will also show Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood’s red carpet interviews as well as an interview with Morgen.

Tickets for the screenings are on sale now at: crossfire-hurriance.com. The screenings begin at 6.15pm (BST) and will run for 150 minutes.

The movie will feature stacks of unseen footage of the band, including commentaries from Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood and former Stones Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor.

Director Morgen said: “Crossfire Hurricane invites the audience to experience firsthand the Stones’ nearly mythical journey from outsiders to rock and roll royalty. This is not an academic history lesson. Crossfire Hurricane allows the viewer to experience the Stones’ journey from a unique vantage point. It’s an aural and visual rollercoaster ride.”

Crossfire Hurricane will go on general release in November.
