The best song Christian Karlsson has ever made could be sitting on a hard drive somewhere, unfinished and completely forgotten by the producer and DJ who performs as Galantis. It’s been four years since his last album, Church, and in that time he’s picked up and put down hundreds of raw demos that he has crafted on a near daily basis. “There’s so much music all the time. I mean, I write songs every day and so many people that are in my team write songs every day,...

Earlier this year, during each night on their tour, The 5 Seconds of Summer Show, 5Sos offered an earnest refrain to their audience. “Memories I hold to keep safe, and I live for that look on your face,” all four members sang into their mics during “Best Friends,” from their latest album 5SOS5. The tour — complete with elaborate skits, copious amounts of confetti, and fan-favorite deep cuts — was a celebration not only of their 10th anniversary as a band, but also of the fanbase they’ve cultivated during that time.

5 Seconds of Summer is feeling more than five seconds of emotional damage on their new song “Blender” — but at least they’re processing it in a fun, upbeat way. On Wednesday, the group — comprising Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Ashton Irwin, and Calum Hood — released their poppy new single.
“All the things you said in my head/Ricochetting off the bed/Nothing left, what a mess/Oh, my God, it never ends,” sings Hemmings in the chorus. “Now we’re stressed and depressed/And we’re going ’round again/In an еmotional blender.

Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many musicians have taken to using green screens to shoot their videos — such as Phoebe Bridgers’ recent “Kyoto” adventure. Now, 5 Seconds of Summer have done the same, enlisting Andy DeLuca to shoot a psychedelic video for their new song “Wildflower.”
The clip features the band in a highly saturated world surrounded by Nineties smiley faces, mushrooms and rainbows. “You know you are my favorite fantasy,” they sing, as hypnotic colors swirl around them. “A fatal love song.”

5 Seconds of Summer have released the dreamy new song “Wildflower,” off their fourth album, Calm, which drops Friday. They co-wrote the track with Rami Yacoub (Britney Spears, Ariana Grande).
“Wildflower” is the brightest-sounding song yet off the upcoming record — and gives a clear nod to Eighties synth-pop. It’s also meant to have an open-ended meaning, according to the band; they omitted keywords from the chorus so that people can add whatever feels best for them: “You’re the only one who makes/Every time we,” goes the refrain.

Even in the dark, 5 Seconds of Summer looks so perfect. The Aussie band—made up of Michael Clifford, Calum Hood, Luke Hemmings and Ashton Irwin—dropped their latest single and music video today and, well, excuse us while we freak out. In "Easier," the group sings about a toxic relationship. "Is it easier to stay? It Is easier to go? I don't know," the foursome muse. "But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change and you know you don't want it any other way." And the nearly three minute video matches the dark mood. In the clip, 5Sos have their hands chained to the ceiling of a dark, blue-lit cave. At one point,...

Kanye West made his bed, and now he has to lie in it. Weeks after West's "Famous" visual debuted at The Forum in L.A. (and was live-streamed on Tidal), BBC Radio 1 has parodied the rapper's music video. The station recruited comedy duo Ant & Dec, as well as 5 Seconds of Summer's Michael Clifford, Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood and Ashton Irwin, Justin Bieber, Craig David, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Carly Rae Jepsen, Nick Jonas, Troye Sivan and Meghan Trainor, to parody the musician's controversial chef-d'oeuvre. Vincent Desiderio's painting Sleep inspired West's visual. In his latest release, a camera pans over nude, silent likenesses of George W. Bush, Donald Trump, Anna Wintour,...

If you're already curating your potential "songs of the summer" playlist, consider this new track from Steve Aoki a worthy addition.

Apparently, the guys of 5 Seconds of Summer weren't totally camera-ready when they posed nude for Rolling Stone. The Australian rock band members, Luke Hemmings, 19, Michael Clifford, 20, Calum Hood, 20, and Ashton Irwin, 21, appear naked on the cover of the music magazine's Jan. 14 issue, sporting various painted slogans all over their bodies. "I wish I was a little more in shape for that," Irwin told E! News' Sibley Scoles at the 2016 G'Day Los Angeles Gala Thursday. "We were so out of shape at that point but it's kinda better that way, I think," Hemmings said. The nude shoot came as a surprise for the...

Michael Clifford, please stop giving fans a heart attack on stage! The 5 Seconds of Summer singer was performing at the Radio 1 Teen Awards in London this weekend when a little accident happened during the show. While Calum Hood, Ashton Irwin and Luke Hemmings were performing their latest single "Hey Everybody," many fans quickly moved their eyes to Clifford who took one giant misstep. In video captured by BBC Radio, the 19-year-old took a serious stumble when he fell into a lower portion of the stage. But once the Omg moment hit the Internet, Clifford thankfully helped calm down any fears with an update. "Why Do I Always Hurt Myself," he wrote on Twitter. "All good geezers. On...
