VCTMS have teamed up with Extortionist for a new song titled “burning/bones.” You can find an official video for that track below:
Alternative Tentacles have shared a new health update on Jello Biafra (ex-Dead Kennedys) following his recent hemorrhagic stroke. The label says the vocalist will have “a long road of recovery.”

Alternative Tentacles issued the following statement:
“Well, it has been a devastating week. Jello is making progress but he has a long road of recovery ahead of him. Cognitively he is as sharp as ever, but he is suffering a bit with the left side of his body not cooperating. His fighting spirit is a blessing right now.
Sorry we didn’t respond yet to all your texts and calls. It is hard for him to text so I am replying to people. It has just been so intense and chaotic that it is taking a while. Soooooooo many people reaching out. I can give updates on this page if you like.
He is appreciating the outpouring of love and support. It definitely lifts his spirits. Message me if needed. If you are planning to come visit, tell me. We have to space it out. He gets very tired very fast.
Much love.
Anne-Marie“

John Lydon commented:
“After losing Nora and Rambo, I couldn’t see a way through. The thing is, people were so overwhelmingly positive, they really showed me a lot of love, and they asked me to tour PIL again. With so many people asking and with the band meaning so much to them, I couldn’t just stay on my sofa and not tour — tempting though that obviously is.
We’re looking forward to playing to our friends in North America. It feels like it’s been a long time and we’re pleased to be coming back. We’ve just been into the studio for four weeks to start work on our new record. You’ll be hearing a lot more from PIL.”
