Multi-platinum rock band Staind recently released a new single, "Here and Now," and an accompanying video.

"Here and Now," which is an emotionally charged ballad, is the fourth track from the band's forthcoming album, Confessions of the Fallen, due out on September 22nd via Alchemy Recordings/BMG.

The video, directed by Bradley Golowin, nicely captures the joy and pain of real-life moments that shape us all. The performance footage of the band further boosts the intensity of the song.

"Here and now/After everything we thought we knew," frontman Aaron Lewis sings in the chorus. "Broken lies and shattered truths/Lost and found/Every memory that's bleeding through/They all just seem to lead me back to you."

Staind previously released "In This Condition," "Cycle of Hurting" and debut single, "Lowest In Me" from the upcoming album. "Lowest In Me" reached No. 1 for two consecutive weeks at active rock and Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart.

Confessions of the Fallen is Staind's first studio album in 12 years.

Avril Lavigne have teamed up with All Time Low for a new song, "Fake As Hell."

"'Fake As Hell' is a song about recognizing what's real and saying goodbye to what's not - it's about cutting ties with people and things that don't lift you up and help you progress," said All Time Low's Alex Gaskarth.

He added, "It's a wave goodbye to whatever's in the rear-view mirror and a new perspective on the road ahead. Collaborating on this one with Avril is a dream realized, and getting to watch her do what she does best in the studio was crazy inspiring."

Lavigne released her latest album, Love Sux, in 2022.

"Fake As Hell" follows All Time Low's album Tell Me I'm Alive, which was released in March and includes the singles "Sleepwalking" and "Calm Down."

All Time Low is currently on tour with Gym Class Heroes, Grayscale, and Lauren Hibberd.

The Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) has announced that Melbourne rock band Jet will be inducted into the ARIA Hall Of Fame on November 15 at the 2023 ARIA Awards. The ceremony will premiere live on Stan at 5 pm AEDT.

"After a two-year hiatus, the prestigious honor returns to recognise Jet's extraordinary contribution to the Australian music industry, their timeless debut album Get Born, and their continued success throughout their illustrious career with albums including Shine On in 2006 and Shaka Rock in 2009," ARIA said in a press release.

Jet's debut album Get Born, released in 2003, remains the highlight of their career. Get Born scored six ARIA Awards in 2004 and was certified nine-times platinum in Australia, making it one of the top five highest-selling Australian rock albums of all time.

After calling it a day in 2012, Jet briefly reformed in 2017 to play with Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band on their sold-out Australian tour, evoking an overwhelming response.

Responding to the news of Jet's ARIA Hall of Fame induction, the rock band's frontman Nic Cester said, "We're all quite chuffed and honored to be in such esteemed company. We are humbled to receive this recognition."

Jet will celebrate the 20th anniversary of Get Born with a tour commencing on September 22 at Melbourne's Forum Theatre. It will be followed by shows at Hindley Street Music Hall in Adelaide on September 23, in Brisbane's Fortitude Music Hall on September 29, and concluding at Enmore Theatre, Sydney, on September 30.

During a recent episode of "The Osbournes Podcast," Ozzy Osbourne provided an update about his health and said he'll undergo additional surgery sometime soon.

Ozzy appeared on the episode of the podcast alongside his wife and manager Sharone Osbourne, son Jack Osbourne and daughter Kelly Osbourne.

Osbourne, who met with an accident in 2003, aggravated his injuries after a fall in 2019, and has already undergone three surgeries. The fall in 2019 dislodged metal rods that were put into his body after a quad bike crash in 2003.

"My lower back is, I'm going for an epidural soon because what's happening, what they've discovered is the neck has been fixed, below the neck there's two vertebrae where the bike hit me and disintegrated, there's nothing left of 'em," Ozzy explains on the podcast.

"I don't know what the f**k [the doctors are] doing," the veteran rocker said when Jack asked him if they're fusing his discs. "All I know is right now I'm in a lot of pain, I'm in a lot of discomfort."

Ozzy, who is also living with Parkinson's, having been diagnosed with the disease in early 2020, has performed just two shows since he last toured in 2018. He cancelled several shows since then due to health issues. In February, he dropped off a planned tour with Judas Priest, and even suggested his touring days "have ended."

Micky Dolenz, the last surviving member of The Monkees, recently shared "Shiny Happy People" from his upcoming R.E.M. covers EP.

Dolenz Sings R.E.M., an upcoming tribute EP by the Monkees rocker, is due on November 3 via 7A Records.

"Once again, this EP reaffirms my long-held conviction that a solid recording always begins with solid material," Dolenz says in a statement accompanying the single. "You don't get much more solid than R.E.M. What a joy to sing these classics and honor a team of outstanding writers."

"Shiny Happy People" is the second single from R.E.M.'s seventh studio album, Out of Time (1991). It features guest vocals by Kate Pierson of the B-52's, who also appears in the music video.

The song reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, the fourth and last R.E.M. single to reach the top 10.

Dolenz also covers the band's 1981 debut single "Radio Free Europe," their 1992 hit "Man on the Moon," and the 2004 deep cut "Leaving New York."

Skid Row announced the postponement of their upcoming tour schedule due to concern for the health of the band's lead vocalist, Erik Gronwall.

The rock band has made the decision to move the third leg of their highly anticipated North American tour originally scheduled for October 2023 to March 2024.

"I want to apologize to all the fans, promoters, Buckcherry and the Skid Row team and to my band mates," Gronwall said in a statement announcing the postponement. "Due to the stem cell transplantation I did on August 12, 2021 my immune system is still partially impaired, which can result in longer time before clearance of infections and also impaired fitness during infections."

He added, "It will get better with time and all I can do until then is roll with the punches and ensure I have a better balance in terms of touring."

The fourth leg of The Gang's All Here Tour in December with Buckcherry is still scheduled as planned.

"Both Skid Row and Buckcherry deeply value the support of their fans, promoters and everyone involved in the shows, and understand that this change may inconvenience some people," Skid Row's Dave Snake Sabo, Rachel Bolan, Scotti Hill, Rob Hammersmith and Erik Gronwall said in a joint statement.

They assured that all those tickets purchased for the original dates will be honored for the rescheduled dates. Refunds will be available for those who cannot attend the rescheduled shows.

Pearl Jam lead guitarist Mike McCready has revealed that he is currently working on a rock opera about the Seattle music scene.

In an interview with Guitar World, McCready said the rock opera is inspired by and paying tribute to his late friend and former bandmate Chris Cornell.

In August, McCready surprised fans with a live performance of an acoustic track that he says was written in honor of Cornell, who died in 2017.

The song, titled "Crying Moon," was the first preview of the rock opera that he shared on Instagram.

"I'm working on a script and I've got about 18 songs that I'm working on, and I'm singing on it," McCready said, hinting that he plans to make it "a record and maybe some sort of stage/play thing."

"I look at him as one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time, aside from being a friend," he said about Cornell, who was the Soundgarden frontman. "I love Chris and I'm working on a little project about the Seattle scene and a musical kind of rock opera thing. It's just from my experience in the Seattle music scene, and he's part of it."

In the interview, McCready also said that a follow-up to Pearl Jam's 2020 album Gigaton is being given the finishing touches.
