Yungblud knows exactly what's going on in today's rock scene! He was just on Howard Stern and the longtime host asked him the whole "Is rock dead?" thing.

Of course it's not!

In an appearance on the Howard Stern Show, Yungblud pushed back on Stern’s statement that “rock is dead” during their Dec. 15 conversation.

Yungblud argued that the genre is alive and resurging, pointing to bands such as Knocked Loose, Turnstile, Amyl and the Sniffers, Lambrini Girls, Fontaines D.C., Geese, and Wunderhorse as proof that rock continues to thrive across hardcore, punk, and indie scenes.

The singer also discussed his latest album Idols (released in June), calling it a creative risk that has been embraced by fans. Yungblud has a major 2026 world tour planned in support of the record.

Woah! Huge news!

Ghost have just revealed that the final date of their 2026 North American Skeletour marks the end of the whole run.

In the brand-new episode of their long-running Chapter series, Frater Gets A Visit, a music video for Skeletá track Cenotaph confirms that the Skeletour will end as soon as February 23 at California’s Intuit Dome. But does that mean Papa V Perpetua will be taking a break, or is there going to be a Re-Skeletour happening down the line (à la the Imperatour and Re-Imperatour on the previous Impera cycle)?

In the May 2025 episode of the video series – Chapter 21: Is Someone Feeling Psalty? – the date of December 2026 was floated about for a potential meeting between current frontman Papa V and his predecessor Frater Imperator (formerly Papa Emeritus IV/Cardinal Copia). And in the newly-released Frater Gets A Visit, Cardi promises that he’ll “stick around for a while”, as well as wondering if V “would wanna spend some time with me”. So perhaps Ghost are cooking something new up under a different name, and fans will eventually get to see the twins meet?! Let’s wait and see…
