Noah Kahn's The Great Divide is sure off to a great start.
After debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 following its release in April, The Great Divide has already been certified Platinum by the RIAA less than three months later.
According to a press release, The Great Divide is one of only two albums released in 2026 that have been certified Platinum, and is the fastest Americana/folk album ever to reach Platinum status.
The Platinum milestone caps an eventful week for Kahan, who played four sold-out shows at Fenway Park in Boston between July 7 and 11. The performances, which featured surprise appearances by Boston sports legends Rob Gronkowski and David Ortiz, earned Kahan an induction into the Fenway Music Hall of Fame.
Kahan's tour will continue Tuesday at Chicago's Wrigley Field.
The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers is teasing a new song called "Paradise," a track off his upcoming solo album, Thrasher.
"Back in October '89, Phil Collins took 'Another Day In Paradise' from the working man," Flowers writes in a Facebook post. "This Friday the 17th, I'll be returning it to its rightful owner."
It's unclear what Flowers means exactly in referencing Collins' "Another Day in Paradise," though the song was criticized when it was originally released for its depiction of people experiencing homelessness.
Perhaps we'll find out when Flowers' "Paradise" seemingly drops on Friday.
Thrasher, Flowers' third solo effort and his first in 11 years, drops Aug. 21. It also includes the previously released single "Plans."
Flowers will launch a U.S. solo tour in September.

L7 bassist Jennifer Finch has been diagnosed with an "aggressive form" of brain cancer, the band announced Monday.
"Following multiple surgeries and serious complications, Jennifer now requires extensive medical care, rehabilitation and professional in-home support," L7 writes in an Instagram post. "Friends, family and L7 have launched a GoFundMe to help cover these urgent expenses and allow her to remain safely at home with the care, dignity and support she needs."
L7 announced in May that Finch, 59, would not be joining the band on their upcoming Last Hurrah farewell tour launching in October, citing unspecified health concerns at the time.
"The Last Hurrah Tour was planned along with Jennifer when all four of us were in good health and spirits," L7 now says. "Although she will not be able to join us for the upcoming U.S. dates, Jennifer has asked us to continue with the tour as planned. We will honor her request while making her care and well-being our immediate priority."
"Jennifer is part of our family," the post concludes. "We love her, and we want her to feel the full strength of the community that has loved and supported her for so many years."

Mary Morello, the mother of Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, has died. She was 102.
Tom shared the news Sunday in an Instagram post reading, "Mary Morello is forever with the Rebels of Light & Song."
Tom had announced in June that Mary was in the hospital and canceled his European solo tour to return home to take care of her.
Mary Morello was born in 1923 in Illinois. She lived in Kenya in the early '60s, where she met and married Tom's father, Ng'ethe Njoroge. She gave birth to Tom in New York City in 1964 before moving to a suburb outside of Chicago, where Tom grew up.
A lifelong activist, Mary founded the group Parents for Rock and Rap, which worked to protect music and art from censorship. Her political activity was a large influence on Tom, who went on to be a founding member of one of the most politically outspoken bands in Rage Against the Machine.

Art from Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready's upcoming graphic novel, Farewell to Seasons, is going on display in Seattle.
The exhibit will be open July 22 at the Mutual Arts Collective and offers "an exclusive first look at pages from Farewell to Seasons reimagined as standalone works of art," according to a post on the PJ website.
As part of the exhibition, the gallery will be partnering with Seattle Musicians Access to Sustainable Healthcare, or SMASH, which Pearl Jam says is "dedicated to providing local musicians with access to healthcare, mental health services, hearing care, and other essential resources."
Farewell to Seasons, which is due out in October, is an alternate history of the Seattle music scene that birthed the grunge explosion of the early '90s. McCready has also composed original music to accompany the book.
McCready will be discussing Farewell to Seasons during the San Diego Comic-Con, taking place July 23-26.
If you feel your disposition getting sweeter, that may be because The Temper Trap is back.
The Australian band, known for their late 2000s hit "Sweet Disposition," has released a new album called Sungazer, marking their first full-length effort in 10 years.
As frontman Dougy Mandagi tells ABC Audio, The Temper Trap's return was in part inspired by an instrumental version of "Sweet Disposition" that went viral on TikTok.
"Sometimes you gotta strike while the iron's hot," Mandagi tells ABC Audio. "We decided to capitalize on this genuine groundswell, I guess, that was happening, and that's when we decided to give it another shot."
Beyond responding to renewed interest in the band, Mandagi says he finally felt ready to make another Temper Trap record after not being in the "right headspace" during that gap.
"I'm the one that instigated this sort of little hiatus," Mandagi says. "I needed that time, I think, to, I don't know, rediscover myself as a creative person, I think."
Musically, Sungazer contains some familiar elements — the opening of single "Giving Up Air" may give you "Sweet Disposition" vibes — while also bringing in more surprising sounds, such as the electronic outro on "Lifeline."
"Having that sort of huge gap in between sort of freed us a little bit from expectations," Mandagi says. "We were able to just explore sounds and synths and doing weird s*** with my vocals, and not having people over our shoulders going, like, 'Oh, you shouldn't do that.'"
Sungazer is out now, and The Temper Trap is currently touring North America with Muse. As for the future of the band, it sounds like we won't have to wait another decade for another album.
"I've already starting working on new s***," Mandagi says.

A pair of bands from the late '90s/early 2000s post-grunge and rock scene have returned with new music.
"Wherever You Will Go" band The Calling and "Hemorrhage (In My Hands)" rockers Fuel have both released new songs.
The Calling's track is called "Dust," and will appear on the group's upcoming third studio album and their first in 22 years, Before the World Turns to Dust.
"I was initially writing 'Dust' as a timeless love song set in an apocalyptic world—kind of like what ours feels like at the moment—but then the song got a bit deeper," frontman Alex Band says in a statement.
You can watch the "Dust" video on YouTube. Before the World Turns to Dust is due out in the fall.
Fuel's track, meanwhile, is titled "Want It." It's the lead single off the band's upcoming album, Pendulum, which will be released Oct. 30.
"Want It" is accompanied by a lyric video that is now on YouTube.
Pendulum marks Fuel's first record with new singer Aaron Scott. The band's last effort, 2021's Ånomåly, featured vocals by John Corsale, who replaced original frontman Brett Scallions.

Shinedown bassist Eric Bass is stepping away from Shinedown's upcoming tour due to his mental health.
"I had a pretty serious mental health crash, I guess you could say, a few weeks ago," Bass says in a video posted to Facebook on Friday. "I don't really feel it's the wise thing for me to do to go out on tour right now."
"I debated whether or not to make this announcement at all and just not be there and then show back up when it's time," he continues. "But mental health being such a thing that I have championed and the band has championed, I thought that it would be not the best look to maybe seem like I'm ashamed of it."
Bass adds that he's currently in treatment and is feeling better, but he doesn't yet have a timeline for his return.
"Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later," he says. "But I wanna make sure that I'm safe."
Josh Sturm and Zack Mack will be filling in for Bass during his absence.
Shinedown's tour launches Saturday in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. It supports the band's new album, EI8HT.
Nothing but Thieves has premiered a new song called "Stray Dogs," the title track off the band's upcoming album.
"We've spent a long time writing about the negative aspects of pack mentality - tribalism, division," the "Trip Switch" outfit says in a statement. "This song is the converse. 'Stray Dogs' is about finding your people."
The album Stray Dogs, the follow-up to 2023's Dead Club City, is due out Sept. 25. It also includes the single "Evolution."
Nothing but Thieves will launch a North American tour in March 2027.

Jack White has invited the band Twin Temple to open for one of his upcoming shows after they were dropped from playing country artist Charley Crockett's tour.
Twin Temple, who describe their music as "satanic doo wop," announced on Wednesday that Crockett "has decided to remove Twin Temple from his upcoming shows next week due to our Satanic imagery."
"We are sorry to everyone who was planning to see us," Twin Temple wrote. "We're grateful for your support, not only of Twin Temple, but more importantly of artistic freedom. HAIL SATAN!"
For his part, Crockett told Rolling Stone, "I thought they were like Black Sabbath, but they ain't. Not today, Satan."
White, however, is apparently unfazed by Twin Temple's satanic imagery — after all, he released an album with The White Stripes called Get Behind Me Satan — and asked them to open for his Sept. 29 show in Los Angeles in an Instagram post published Friday.
"Get in front of me Satan!" White wrote.
Twin Temple then responded in the comments, "Unholy hell.... Sir Jack, you have no idea what this means to us."
"We were actually planning on coming to this show," they added. "It would be a most infernal pleasure to play the devils music with you."
White, meanwhile, released a new solo album called Frozen Charlotte on Friday and will launch his U.S. tour Friday night in Washington, D.C.

The Linda Lindas have released a new song called "Closer."
The track is not a cover of the Nine Inch Nails classic, but instead an original recorded in collaboration with Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams.
"Having Hayley write and sing on this song perfected it and we're so grateful and lucky to do this with her and all of you!!!" The Linda Lindas say.
Williams previously performed with The Linda Lindas live during a 2025 show in London.
"Closer" will appear on the upcoming Linda Lindas album Gotta Get Out, due out Aug. 28. It also includes the single "Burning Out."
The Linda Lindas will be playing shows with Bleachers in September. They're also performing at Tom Morello's Power to the People festival in October.
Sex Pistols' live album Filthy Lucre Live is getting a special vinyl reissue.
Originally released in July 1996, the album captures the June 23, 1996, reunion of the band's original lineup — Johnny Rotten aka John Lydon, Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock — at Finsbury Park in London. It was the Sex Pistols' first show since breaking up during their 1978 tour of the U.S.
The album features performances of classic Sex Pistol tunes like “Anarchy in the U.K.” and “God Save the Queen."
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the band’s reunion, the album is now being reissued as a two-LP red vinyl set on Nov. 20. In addition to the original album, the set will feature a cover of The Stooges' “No Fun” and “Buddies,” described as "a crowd sing-along version of their song 'Bodies.'" The songs previously only appeared as Japanese bonus tracks.
“It was 20 years on from when we initially broke up in ‘78 and it was always a debate that the Pistols couldn’t play,” says guitarist Steve Jones of the performance. “I think Filthy Lucre shows not only that we can play but we are a powerhouse. Long live rock ’n’ roll.”
Drummer Paul Cook adds that the show "was about getting the original lineup behind Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols back together and showing what we could really do. I loved it.”

If you're a St. Vincent fan, you could've won $2,000 on Jeopardy!
Thursday's episode of the quiz show featured a category called Women in Music, which was presented by Olivia Rodrigo. For the $2,000 clue, Rodrigo read out, "I've been honored to work with indie musician, singer and songwriter Annie Clark. I even play one of her signature guitars. You probably know Annie best by this venerated stage name."
While the correct response, of course, is "Who is St. Vincent?," a contestant named Sarah buzzed in and replied, "What is H.E.R.?" Neither of the other two contestants even attempted to buzz in.
The Women in Music category also included clues about No Doubt's Gwen Stefani, Alanis Morissette, Beyoncé and the Lilith Fair festival.
Rodrigo, by the way, is hosting her own Lilith Fair-inspired festival called Daisy Chain Fields, taking place Aug. 29 in Irvine, California. The bill includes alternative artists such as Garbage, The Breeders, Mitski, Bikini Kill Karen O and Not for Radio.

Man! She feels like a Queen of the Stone Age.
Shania Twain has premiered a new song called "Faded Blue Jeans," which features QotSA frontman Josh Homme.
"A nostalgic, guitar-driven anthem with a rebellious rock-and-blues spirit, 'Faded Blue Jeans' was written solely by Twain and captures the intensity of first love and teenage defiance," a press release reads. "Inspired by one of Twain's own teenage relationships, the song reflects on the unwavering belief that young love could last forever."
It adds, "Homme's unmistakable vocals bring a raw edge to the track."
"Faded Blue Jeans" will appear on Twain's upcoming album, Little Miss Twain, due out July 24.
Queens of the Stone Age are currently on tour in Europe playing shows with System of a Down. They'll be touring North America with Foo Fighters beginning in August.

Alabama Shakes have released a new song called "I Feel Hope Coming," a track off the band's upcoming reunion album, I Must Be Dreaming.
"This younger generation makes me feel hopeful because they can see through all the political lies," says frontwoman Brittany Howard in a statement. "That song's about holding onto that hope, and refusing to give up."
"I Feel Hope Coming" marks the third song to be released off I Must Be Dreaming, following "Another Life" and "American Dream." The album will arrive in full on Aug. 28.
Alabama Shakes put out two albums, 2012's Boys & Girls and 2015's Sound & Color, before going on hiatus in 2018. They got back together at the end of 2024 for a surprise show before officially announcing their reunion.
Alabama Shakes will launch a U.S. tour July 24 in Tacoma, Washington.
The track follows the "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked" outfit's 2024 album, Neon Pill, which marked the band's first album after frontman Matt Shultz was arrested in 2023 on gun charges and subsequently hospitalized amid a mental health crisis.
"It's no secret that I went through a mental health crisis a few years back; this song for me symbolizes me finally being able to move past it," Shultz says in a statement. "I was hospitalized for nearly three months, the song addresses it by creating a fictionalized account of it. It was my attempt at reclaiming the ability to write about something serious that happened in my life, from a place of genuine experience."
"Beaches in Tennessee" also marks the first Cage the Elephant song released after signing to a new label, Big Loud Rock.
'From the Pyre' deluxe album artwork. (Island Records)
The Last Dinner Party has premiered a new song called "Knocking at the Sky."
The track is included on the newly released deluxe edition of the "Nothing Matters" outfit's 2025 sophomore album, From the Pyre.
"'Knocking at the Sky' is the final tale from The Pyre," The Last Dinner Party says in a statement. "After creating an album about storytelling and world-building, we thought it apt to end this act with a story set in the sinister myth world itself: Los Angeles."
"Hollywood is the ultimate fairytale," the band continues. "The stakes are at surreal heights, the landscape is unruly and plastic, and it's populated with a cast of Grimm characters all striving and struggling at the center of their own hero's journey."
You can watch the video for "Knocking at the Sky" on YouTube.
The Last Dinner Party will hit the road opening for sombr's U.S. tour starting in October. They'll kick off 2027 with a run of dates opening for Olivia Rodrigo.
