Myles Kennedy explains why he turned down an audition for Velvet Revolver, Ice Nine Kills announce a horror-inspired movie, Misery Signals stream their final show, and Wolfgang Van Halen says he’s already sitting on ideas for a fourth Mammoth record. We also get into what Billy Corgan and Yungblud have been up to lately, plus audition stories from Mark Tremonti and Iron Maiden’s Adrian Smith.

There’s a warning about AI “artists” ripping off real bands, The Ocean confirms a new album for 2026, and yes — mushroom coffee still doesn’t give you superpowers. OR does it?
