6/13/2018

A smoked-out and stripped-down live take on the Head Over Heelssingle does not disappoint.

Veteran funkmeisters Chromeo recently gave us a taste from their first new album in four years with “Must’ve Been”, a DRAM-featuring ode to intoxicated meet-cutes that sounds like it must have been an absolute party to record. Today they're sharing a new visual for a stripped-down live version of the track, and our instincts appear to be confirmed: these guys are very extremely good at having fun times. Witness!

Watch it all go down in the full video, above. "Must've Been" is the first official single to be released from Head Over Heels, which is set to drop June 15th via Big Beat/Atlantic Records. Chromeo are currently out touring the world in support of the album, with stops planned at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and cities on at least three continents. See the full tour schedule here.

Watch Weezer Perform Synth Heavy 'Africa" Cover On "Kimmel"

6/13/2018

Weezer performed their hit cover of Toto's classic "Africa" on Tuesday'sJimmy Kimmel Live!

Frontman Rivers Cuomo stood static, eyes down at center stage, as he appeared to read the track's lyrics from a laptop. Guitarist Brian Bell manned a synthesizer and Scott Shriner occasionally triggered sequenced synth tones, with both players recreating their radiant vocal harmonies on the chorus.The alt-rock band also nodded to the song's original craftsmen, with Toto keyboardist Steve Porcaro crashing the stage for a solo on the instrumental bridge.
Weezer's rendition of the 1982 hit recently reached Number 89 on the Billboard charts, marking their highest placement since "(If You're Wondering If I Want You To)(I Want You To)" in 2009, Pitchforkreports.

The band released "Africa" in late May after a 14-year-old fan lobbied for months – using the Twitter handle @weezerafrica – for the group to cover the song. Weezer first responded by covering a different Toto song, "Rosanna," but eventually obliged with their rendition of "Africa."

Avengers Game : Marvel Infinity War Fans Next Big Xbox, PS4 Release Date And News

6/9/2018

AVENGERS Infinity War is the big summer blockbuster of the year, but Square Enix is also planning a magnificent Marvel game that's sure to delight fans with access to a PS4, Xbox One and PC. Here's what we know so far...

Avengers - E3 Announcement Imminent?Although we cannot say for certain, it's quite possible that Marvel fans will learn more details about the new Avengers game in the week ahead.
That's because E3 2018 is officially here, kickstarting with EA Play on Saturday. And following that there will be a whole assortment of press conferences, announcements, interviews and more throughout the week from various publishers and developers.
There's not been a whole lot of information about the game since it was first announced and with Square Enix once again hosting their own E3 Press Briefing, it's not unreasonable to assume we'll learn something about this new game.
At this stage it might not be full on gameplay, or even a trailer, but even if we were to learn more about exactly what the game is, whether its story driven or a big MMO, it would be a step in the right direction.
Either way, we don't have long to wait with Square Enix hosting their conference this coming Monday at 6pm BST for those of you in the UK wanting to tune in.
So for the time being, stay tuned for more official info in the coming days and potentially some leaks too.
And if you want to see more of our E3 2018 coverage across the week, bookmark the following URL - www.dailystar.co.uk/latest/e3-2018 - to stay up to date.
Want to know more? Keep reading to discover everything we know about the Avengers game so far...

The Avengers Project - OverviewDeveloper: Crystal Dynamics & Eidos Montreal
Publisher: Square-Enix
Release date: TBC
Platform: TBC
Genre: 3rd person Action-Adventure
The Avengers Project - What is it?The Avengers Project, as it is currently known, will feature a "completely original story" and build a "universe gamers could play in for years to come.'
This news will surely please Marvel fans around the world who had already been let down when a previously planned Avengers game was cancelled a few years back.
The Square-Enix announcement read:
"The Avengers project is being designed for gamers worldwide and will be packed with all the characters, environments, and iconic moments that have thrilled longtime fans of the franchise. Featuring a completely original story, it will introduce a universe gamers can play in for years to come."
Jay Ong, Senior Vice President for Games & Innovation at Marvel Entertainment has also spoke of the partnership, saying:
“By partnering with Crystal Dynamics and Eidos-Montréal, we are now working with two of the industry’s most talented and respected game development studios to bring Marvel stories to life in ways our fans have never experienced.
“The Avengers Project is a perfect example of how Marvel is making games a key part of the landscape for Marvel storytelling, alongside comics, television and film.
"We can only do this by matching our greatest Super Heroes with the world’s top developers, such as the creative minds at Square Enix.”

E3 2018 - Square Enix ShowcasePublisher and developer Square Enix has announced it will be hosting a "showcase" at 10am local time on 11 June.
It seems like Square Enix will be opting for a Nintendo Direct-inspired showcase this time around, with a video presentation taking the place of the traditional real-life presser.
We currently don't know how long it'll last, but considering Square Enix hasn't done this for 2 years, you know the company has something big to announce.
We can expect to see more information on Shadow of the Tomb Raider, news about the future of the Final Fantasy franchise in some form or another and we should get our next look at the hotly-anticipated Avengers project too.
The Avengers Project - Gameplay (3rd person)A Neogaf post earlier this year brought to light two job postings for the game which give us a better idea of the way it is shaping up.
One role was for a "Lead Level Designer" position, which would focus on level development.
It's interesting to note that it specifically mentioned "fun and unique online experiences" and also required an understanding of "the social implications of shared gameplay", equally referencing "various game modes and campaigns".
The second position was more straightforward, looking for an experienced Combat Designer, who can work with the rest of the team to "plan, prototype and build combat systems that directly apply to a 3rd person cover based action adventure game."
From this, we can surmise that the game will be a 3rd person cover based action adventure game, with heavy MMO elements which could see players coming together to form a team. Sort of like how Destiny has fireteams of Guardians.
The Avengers Project - Release DateThere is no official release date for the game just yet. All that has been mentioned, alongside the initial announcement trailer, is that more news would be shared in 2018.
It's likely that some of these announcements will be made in and around E3 2018, possibly as part of the Sony PlayStation and/or Microsoft Xbox conference.
The Avengers Project - All Star Dev TeamSince the initial announcement, Square-Enix has been quietly recruiting an all-star team of developers to work on the game.
In January of this year, Former Uncharted director Shaun Escayg - best known for working on Uncharted: The Lost Legacy more recently - joined the development team for The Avengers Project.
He was also joined by Dead Space producer Stephen Barry who more recently had worked across a variety of roles at EA, most recently as the director of product development at Visceral Games.
Speaking about the appointment, Escayg said: "I'm thrilled to join Crystal as Creative Director and be aligned with a team as passionate about telling great character based stories as I am."
Barry echoed these thoughts saying: "Crystal's been around almost as long as I've been in the business. The immediate chemistry and camaraderie has been exactly what I'd hoped for."

Battlefield V : Official Reveal Trailer, Release Dates, No More Premium Pass

5/23/2018

Battlefield V will be released for all players on October 19 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

Battlefield V is now available for preorder. If you opt for the Deluxe Edition, you'll be able to start playing on October 16, and if you subscribe to EA Access, you'll be able to hop over a week earlier on October 11.Players that preorder any edition of the game with the Battlefield V Enlister Offer gain early access to the Open Beta and other in-game benefits including soldier customization options, access to Special Assignments starting at launch week and immediate access to five weapons to use in Battlefield 5.

As suspected, the setting for Battlefield V will be World War 2, but instead of focusing on the most famous battles from that conflict – Normandy, Berlin, Dunkirk – developer DICE is seeking to focus on the untold stories set in the unexplored corners. One of the stories that was teased focused on a young female resistance fighter trying to save her family in the top of Norway, North of the Arctic Circle.
Battlefield 5 also contains a new co-operative mode called Combined Arms. You'll play in a squad of up to four, cast in the role of a paratrooper. Your job, along with your teammates, is to go in behind enemy lines, ideally stay undetected, and complete objectives. These tasks are dynamic, and there is a strong risk-reward aspect – you can choose to extract early and play it safe, or go deeper into enemy territory for a bigger reward. It's being referred to as a way to "learn the ropes" of Battlefield for newcomers.

Finally, there was another rumour of Battlefield V having its own Battle Royale mode. Well, not quite. Tight games of Grand Operations – Battlefield's multi-round epic game mode – will now culminate in an extra round, known as Last Stand. Essentially, it's sudden death. You've been fighting for four rounds which equate to four in-game days, and resources are low. All remaining players will fight until one player remains, and a winner is determined. But staying in a squad is heavily incentivised as it's the only way to net yourself health and ammo. This is not a standalone mode, but the final round of Grand Operations.In an expanded presentation to IGN, DICE delved much more into some of the changes they're making to Battlefield V, and you can read all about them in this article:
Finally, EA also announced that Battlefield 5 would get rid of the Premium Pass, releasing its major post-release content for free. So that means no more paying for modes and no more segmentation of the community. Instead, the game will introduce something called Tides of War, which is how DICE will roll out new content for the game and allow players to earn in-game rewards, including limited-time gear such as dog tags, soldier skins, and face paint.
To coincide with the announcement, EA is making Battlefield 4's Final Stand and Battlefield 1's In the Name of the Tsar free for a limited time.

The Kooks Return With Two New Tracks

5/17/2018

'No Pressure' and 'All The Time' mark the first tasters of a forthcoming fifth album
The Kooks have returned with two new tracks, and news of a forthcoming album.
‘No Pressure’ and ‘All The Time’ are the first tasters of the band’s fifth record ‘Let’s Go Sunshine’, a release which frontman Luke Pritchard calls “our most exciting album” yet. It’s due for release on August 31.

The band first hit the studio in 2015, picking up where their last album ‘Listen’ – which came out the previous year – left off. However, The Kooks later scrapped an entire album’s worth of material, Pritchard explains in a press release.
“[We] discovered it wasn’t what we wanted to make and wasn’t really The Kooks,” the vocalist says. “So we scrapped it and started again. I really went on a mission to write the best songs I’d ever written before bringing them to the band. I stewed over every word. It had to be our ‘Rubber Soul’, ‘Lola’, ‘Definitely Maybe’,” he adds, citing three classic records. “Proper British lineage.”

“I came from a dark place at the start, had a lotta heartbreak, and then falling in love in the middle of the album…the lyrics reflect that,” Pritchard adds. “From ‘Fractured And Dazed’ to ‘No Pressure’, it’s gotta be our most exciting album, and it should get you dancing.”

The Kooks have also shared the tracklisting for their fifth album ‘Let’s Go Sunshine’.

1. Intro
2. Kids
3. All The Time
4. Believe
5. Fractured and Dazed
6. Chicken Bone
7. Four Leaf Clover
8. Tesco Disco
9. Honey Bee
10. Initials For Gainsbourg
11. Pamela
12. Picture Frame
13. Swing Low
14. Weight of the World
15. No Pressure

'Bohemian Rhapsody' Trailer is Thrilling First Look at Queen Biopic: Watch Trailer

5/16/2018

Rami Malek as rock icon Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.

=The wait was clearly worth it. The world finally got a look at the first trailer for the long-awaited Queen biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody on Tuesday morning (May 15). After years of on-and-off development and intrigue, the 97-second peek at the anticipated film about the life and times of the legendary British rock band and their late lead singer Freddie Mercury is a delight for the eyes and ears.
After a 10-second teaser trailer dropped on Monday (May 14), briefly revealing star Rami Malek in his Mercury get up, the full trailer proved that the Mr. Robot actor was the only choice that made sense. Malek has already earned praise for his uncanny resemblance to Mercury, and the blitz of scenes in which he inhabits the flamboyant rock star in a variety of colorful outfits and through multiple hair eras is evidence that the wait was worth it.

The trailer opens with Malek, wearing a fluttering white cape, engaging in the familiar call-and-response with an audience that was one of Queen's signature live concert staple moves, before cutting to snippets of Malek as Mercury in a gold lame jumpsuit, a black leather outfit and shirtless while wielding the late singer's iconic half microphone stand as the instantly recognizable strains of "Another One Bites the Dust" kick in.
The quick-cut trailer bounces from Mercury's first meeting with guitarist Brian May (Gwilym Lee) and drummer Roger Taylor (Ben Hardy) to their rise through the ranks while the "Dust" beat is overlaid with snippets of other hits, including "Killer Queen" and the movie's title track. It peaks with a scene in which May plays the central "Rhapsody" riff in the studio and Mercury informs him from the mixing board "this is where the operatic section comes in," which cuts to the band huddled around a microphone bringing Mercury unlikely musical vision to fruition.
Hinting at turbulence and triumph as the band becomes one of the biggest rock acts in the world, the trailer peaks with a glimpse of the massive crowd at Wembley Stadium in 1985 when Queen leaped into history with their unforgettable set at Live Aid. Bohemian Rhapsody will hit theaters on Nov. 2.

Check out the trailer below.
