Columbia House, the mail-order company that started the music collections of millions of teens for decades, is finally ceasing operations.

The list of award categories and nominees for the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) has been revealed and, in what appears to be a big change, there is no longer a category for rock music.

According to a press release, Beard "was in hospice care when he passed away at his ranch in Richmond, Texas, with family members at his side" on Aug. 17.

Carl talks about the New single "Want it" and their seventh Studio album "Pendulum". He brings up how is was working with new vocalist Aaron Scott plus advise for local rock bands in the Coastal Bend.

In the second part of the two-part interview with Full Metal Jackie about his "30 Years of Madness" solo tour, Mudvayne and Hellyeah vocalist Chad Gray hints at the possibility of new music with his current solo band, though it comes with a "wait and see" caveat.

Slipknot's Sid Wilson has offered his first public acknowledgement of his ousting from the band, using a rather quiet and simple usage of his social media to do so.

Summer tours through North America and many parts of the world have been met with extreme heat and high humidity, which, earlier this week, resulted in Five Finger Death Punch pausing their show to ensure fans stay hydrated through an incredible act of generosity.

The 2026 Global Citizen Festival will take over Central Park’s Great Lawn on September 26th with TOMORROW X TOGETHER, Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, Lenny Kravitz, John Legend, Shaboozey and Lainey Wilson. Hugh Jackman will host, with appearances from Rachel Brosnahan and Gayle King.

A new element has been added to the ongoing saga of Sid Wilson's status within Slipknot.
