Slowdive have completed work on their first new album in six years.
Neil Halstead confirmed the news during an appearance on the podcast SixPack, which the band re-posted to their Instagram page.
Halstead said he provided “a lot” of the demos for this album. “Some of the stuff I bought in was very electronic based, because that’s where I’m coming from sometimes,” he explained. “And then it will work its way back to being an indie, guitar thing. We end up meeting in a place where everyone is happy.”
Slowdive released their self-titled fourth album in 2017. It marked the band’s first release in 22 years, following their reunion in 2014.
Later this month, Slowdive will travel to Australia for a series of shows. They’re also scheduled to appear at the Fuji Rock Festival in Japan. You can find tickets to their upcoming gigs here.

There’s a reason they’re called Shame. “You’re complaining a lot about the things that you’ve got,” proclaims frontman Charlie Steen on the first words of their accomplished third album. Anyone else feel seen? Food for Worms, described by the South London five-piece as an “ode to friendship”, abandons introspection. Sick of songs about romance and self-obsession, Shame take a critical but loving look at those around them – and in the process, demand their listeners do the same.
We’re first fed “Fingers of Steel”. It’s a bold opener, charged with a melancholic energy. If the track sounds familiar, that’s partly down to its nostalgic early-Noughties wonky guitar, and partly down to its near-constant airplay on 6 Music. As the song approaches a near-perfect end, it’s suddenly interrupted by a random pang. The ad-hoc moment is telling of Shame’s approach to the record as a whole.

Neil Castles, a NASCAR driver who later worked in films as a stuntman, transportation coordinator and actor, died today at 88. His death was reported by journalist Deb Williams.
Castles, nicknamed “Soapy,” was a NASCAR Cup Series driver from 1957 to 1976. He made 498 starts, but never won a race. His best-career finish was second on four occasions. He did manage 51 top fives, 178 top 10s and finished in the top five in points in 1969 and 1970.
While still involved in NASCAR, Castles became a film industry stunt driver, mostly for movies about racing produced in the 1960s and ’70s. His film credits include Speedway starring Elvis Presley (1968), Greased Lightning starring Richard Pryor (1977), and Six Pack starring Kenny Rogers (1982).
Castles also had acting credits in The Night of the Cat (1973) and Challenge (1974), and also had multiple transportation department credits as either a picture car coordinator or driver. His most recent came in Homeland (2011) and The Hunger Games...

Kenny Rogers always knew when to hold them, when to fold them, when to walk away, when to run. The beloved country-pop stud died Friday night at 81, after a career full of hits that defined his silver-fox mystique. Kenny was barely north of 40 when he sang his signature song, “The Gambler” in 1978, but he came on like a grizzled old sage who’d seen it all. His hits were full of sensually growled wisdom: walk away from trouble when you can, don’t fall in love with a dreamer, never...

Kenny Rogers, whose music went beyond the country music genre he is known for, died at home in Sandy Springs, Ga., Friday night, according to the New York Times. He was 81.
“The Rogers family is sad to announce that Kenny Rogers passed away last night at 10:25Pm at the age of 81,” his family said in a statement to Twitter. “Rogers passed away peacefully at home from natural causes under the care of hospice and surrounded by his family.”
Rogers was known for duets like his chart-topping pairing with Dolly Parton, “Islands in the Stream,” and crossover hits like “Coward of the County,” “Lucille,” “Lady,” and his signature song, “The Gambler.” But the Country Music Hall of Famer went through all genres in his musical journey, from playing upright bass in a jazz band, through subtle Vietnam War commentary with his cover of Mel Tillis’ song “Ruby” to psychedelic swing...

Kenny Rogers, who overcame a hardscrabble upbringing to become a country music legend, has died at age 81. Rogers was a prolific talent. Inspired by seeing Ray Charles in concert, he decided to become a singer and was part of the New Christy Minstrels folk group in the early 1960s. Rogers then became part of the counter-culture revolution in music later in the decade. Many people probably don't realize that he was the lead vocal on the First Edition's `1967 hard rock, psychedelic hit "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)". He later found his niche in country western music and during the 1970s and 1980s became one of the most successful singers of the era, with tens of millions of albums sold. Rogers' iconic ballad "The Gambler" became massively popular and spurred a successful, if short-lived acting career in the 1980s based on a...

A tale of underdogs and their quest to leave a lasting mark on society while representing planet earth to potential extra terrestrial life forms takes the shape of a family film that is just peculiar enough to please adults while catering to kids.
Troop Zero is Amazon Prime's first straight-to-streaming feature length film, though it made its official premiere at Sundance 2019.
And it's not as cheesy as your usual family film fare.
One of the greatest assets Troop Zero has going for it is its subtle edginess, even while narrating a message about self-motivation and celebrating one's uniqueness.
Miss Rayleen -- played charismatically by Viola Davis -- is an anti-hero type who cares not for the company of young children.
Because of her distaste for palling around with kids, the bitter comedy lands with grace and assists in earning empathy as we watch the character's journey change throughout the approximate 90 minute runtime.

There’s a lot to unpack in that great Deadpool 2 trailer that dropped this week (including a hilarious jab at Justice League‘s moustache woes). One of the most intriguing things, though, is trying to work out what’s going with the Merc’s new team.
It’s safe to say that no one was expecting Terry Crews to pop up in the film, but speculation has been building about who the other mutants were in the background. Rumors are swirling that they’re an early version of what will become the X-Force, probably containing some members of the ‘Six Pack’ group affiliated with Deadpool and Cable.
Now, Omega Undergound thinks they’ve figured out who at least one of the members is – Bill Skarsgård (see screenshot below). Yup, Pennywise himself. This isn’t a name plucked from the blue – the case is that Skarsgård has just worked with Deadpool...

A review of tonight's "The Americans" coming up just as soon as I'm the Kenny Rogers of Haifa... "You're a monster! You're not a man! Whatever you once were, whoever you were, they trained it out of you! No feeling, no humanity, you may as well be dead!" -Anton "The Deal" is an installment of "The Americans" where the whole isn't as strong as the sum of the individual parts, because even though the parts are mostly terrific, there are too many of them. FX has given this show, like many of its dramas, the freedom to come in long when the creative team needs the extra time, but in this case I would say being forced to hit a rigid time would have been useful. So much of what's strong about the episode comes from the tension of the ticking clock on Philip's situation, where there's only so long...

The only new wide releases this past weekend were rated R but on May 1, Cinemark Theaters will show a PG classic: The Graduate. Yep, the "Mrs. Robinson, are you trying to seduce me?" flick received the rating that parents today read as “okay for 8-year-olds.” Of course PG-13 didn’t exist in 1967, but today’s sex comedies almost universally receive an R. It seems hard to believe, but movies are more responsible these days. To realize this, simply rewatch a movie from your childhood. When the 1982 Kenny Rogers PG-rated “family film” Six Pack aired on TCM, my fond memories led me to share it with my tween, only to realize those kids could teach sailors some new words. In 1984 Footloose also received a PG, in which cool kids smoke cigarettes...

Back in summer 2010, we posted the ‘100 Greatest Movie Insults of All Time‘ which turned out to be our highest hit post ever! Now, the same people have gone back to the drawing back to create the 2011 version called ‘The Other 100 Greatest Movie Insults of All Time’!
Both videos were created by Harry Hanrahan who has done yet another fantastic job making them. Great to see Hook, Cool Runnings and Coming to America (you sweat from a baboon’s balls!) both making it into this one. We hope you’ll enjoy this one as much as you did the previous!
Thanks to Pajiba for the heads up on this. Below the embed is the list of movies used in this video. Please note this video contains swearing and depending on how fun your boss is, may not be safe for work!

In June 2010, we had the pleasure of debuting Harry Hanrahan's video, "The 100 Greatest Movie Insults of All Time," which would not only become our biggest post of 2010, but would launch the video toward what is now closing in on 5 million views and counting.
Today, we are debuting the follow-up to that video, "The Other 100 Greatest Movie Insults of All Time." The video includes lots of quotes that didn't make the cut the first time around, plus scads of omissions that were raised by commenters here and around the Internet.
It's not as vicious as the first video, but it is more playful, and nearly as rife with profanity, so it's not safe for work, unless your employers have a sense of humor, in which case, call them over before you watch.
Enjoy, you long streaks of paralyzed piss. You smell like a burger.

When all is said and done, history will not look back fondly at the second season of Jersey Shore. The lovable group of scamps that we were first introduced to last year as they summered on the beaches of Sleazeside Heights, blissfully unaware of the mega-celebrities that they would become, are gone. Yes, their corporeal forms remain the same, but their personalities have shifted in significant ways since the halcyon days of Summer 2009 when the show’s first season has taped. And really, that’s what drew people into the show in the first place, the outgoing and unique personalities of the show’s main core of characters: The Situation, DJ Pauly D, Snooki and, to a lesser extent, the rest of them. While we don’t blame MTV for getting the band back together again in February of 2010 to begin filming the M.I.A. season — gotta strike while the iron is hot!

Getting Taylor Lautner’s washboard abs isn’t far out of reach, according to Jordan Yuam, Lautner’s personal trainer and founder of Jordan’s Virtual Fit Club. To get a cut stomach, you need to eat right, focus on doing the exercises properly and give your body time to recover.
Eat With Your Abs In Mind
“Eating is 90% of getting the abs to come in,” says Yuam. Its true no matter how strong or defined the muscles are, if they are covered by a layer of fat no high intensity training program alone will work. To get a lean muscle mass, you must put down the cheeseburgers and alcohol, stay away from processed foods and try substituting green tea for your coffee.
Recently on Oprah, Dr Perricone stated “if you just replaced coffee with green tea, you could lose 10 pounds in six weeks.

- Can Amanda Seyfried personify both Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella? She's been cast as the former for a while, and now she's rumored to be starring in a live-action version of the latter for Disney, based on the studio's animated classic. The redo comes via screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna (The Devil Wears Prada) and will likely be in 3D with plenty of CGI mice and birds. Bippidy-Boppidy-Boo-Hoo. [via The Playlist]
- Maybe love will turn me around, but I'm having trouble accepting Kevin James in the Kenny Rogers role for Fox's Six Pack remake. Pajiba reports that he's been offered the part, leading me to assume racing star Brewster Baker will no longer be the kind of ladies man he was back in '82. Also, now at the helm, replacing David Gordon Green, is Marmaduke's Tom Dey. I guess I just hope the eventual redo of The Beniker Gang will make amends.

We always need a film that involves an out-of-luck race car driver that turns his life around with the help of six zany kids. Let's put some wonderful icing on that cake with the possibility of Kevin James taking on the lead role in the remake of the 1982 family friendly film "Six Pack". The original starred country singer Kenny Rogers as the race car driver with a cast that included Diane Lane and Anthony Michael Hall.The actor is better known for his film roles like "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" which even to this day I still don't understand how that movie made so much money. He starred in the sitcom "The King of Queens" and continues to latch himself onto yawn-worthy projects ever since then. If you want to see him at work, check him out alongside Adam Sandler in "Grown Ups", out in theaters right now.Source: Pajiba...

Did you see Grown Ups? Does it make you wonder how Kevin James is still getting movie offers? I.ll tell you the reason. Because once a guy is recognizable, and takes roles in terrible movies that somehow put butts in the seats, that.s literally all that matters when filmmakers start casting. Nothing else even comes close. Was Kevin James once a funny comedian? I guess. But his movie resume reads like a rundown from the local dump. He might be getting ready to add another one to his list that already includes cinematic wonders lie Paul Blart: Mall Cop and I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. Pajiba is reporting James has been offered a role in the remake of the 1982 comedy Six Pack, originally starring Kenny Rogers and Diane Lane. Six Pack focuses on Nascar driver, Brewster Baker, who befriends a group of car-stealing orphans. They are...

I absolutely cannot imagine a movie featuring Kenny Rogers, Diane Lane, and Anthony Michael Hall, but that's because I never saw the 1982 guilty pleasure Six Pack. I almost feel bad about not having had seen it, but for the fact that it's also about race car driving, and I don't really want any part of a movie about race car driving that's not making fun of race car driving.
At any rate, earlier this year, it was reported that David Gordon Green (Pineapple Express, Your Highness) was developing a remake of Six Pack, and that was all well and good, and I'd have expected Green's remake to be something akin to Richard Linklater's remake of The Bad News Bears. We can't really begrudge good directors their guilty pleasures, but it's not like we have to like them.
Anyway, Green -- who was once attached to write and direct -- is no longer aboard.

To play a werewolf, Joe Manganiello needed to be more than just your average Joe Six Pack. “You get cast as a shifter on ‘True Blood,’ and you know that nudity is on its way,” he says. “Aside from not wanting to embarrass my family, I wanted the character to be ripped. I didn’t want an extra ounce of fat on me. I wanted to be the animal.” Enter trainer Ron Mathews, a 16-year veteran of the business, who, among other Hollywood heavyweights,...

1. See Kenny Rogers jump. Well, dive. Actually, no- it's more like he assumes a diving position, but then he straight up belly flops into a river. I've seen it a few times now, and it continues to make me laugh out loud. It's priceless.
2. See Kenny Rogers fall - in head-to-toe matching denim - out of an outhouse window onto a pile of tires. (Okay, so I like watching Kenny Rogers fall. I don't have anything against him, I just find it to be pretty entertaining.)
3. Because while you watch, you can imagine how this movie came to be:
"Kenny Rogers is a huge star - let's get him into a movie!"
"Yes! But what would the story be?"
"Well, naturally we could team him up with a pack of wily, thieving-but-lovable young orphans."
"The orphans could steal car parts and be excellent mechanics!"
"And Kenny Rogers could be a Nascar driver!

After checking out the Prince of Persia at WonderCon over the weekend, I have to wonder whether you’ll be watching it for the action, or just to get a glimpse of Jake’s six-pack!
Six pack. Body. Yum. These were the quite unexpected words I heard being bandied about at WonderCon, San Francisco’s comic book and science fiction festival over the weekend. They were, of course, in reference to Jake Gyllenhaal’s new film, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. And I’ve got to say: Reese Witherspoon, you are some kind of fool for giving this boy up!
Myself, along with the Darth Vader and Pokemon-loving fanboys and gamers of WonderCon, waited impatiently for Jake, 29, director Mike Newell and super-producer Jerry Bruckheimer to take the stage for a Persia panel at San Fran’s Moscone Center South April 3. When Jake finally arrived, the screaming was deafening.

After reading the blissfully ignorant article entitled Hey Snobs, Leave Avatar Alone from Mr. Reggie “Six Pack” Statsfield, I felt, despite my better judgment, to form a retort.
And so I have. Lucky you.
Though James Cameron’s new colossus of mediocre and paper thin cinema is now the king of all box office, I suppose I should click my heels and kiss its rings, correct? I think not. I have been pondering Mr. Cameron’s Avatar quietly for some time and I think I may have my answer as to how such a shallow film is supposedly inspiring so many “fans.” The reason is this, fellow cine-philes. They are silly, weak-minded amoebas who believe that Street Fighter was the best film of 1995 or that Quentin Tarantino is a “fresh and bold” director. None is the case. In fact, those views showcase the person as a fool,...

Despite low ratings, Ugly Betty is pushing ownward. Now, Tony winner Brian Stokes Mitchell will have a potentially recurring role on Ugly Betty as a former lover of Wilhelmia (played by Vanessa Williams) who is apparently a Joe Six Pack rather than an elegant charmer.
Seriously, I've seen Mr. Stokes Mitchell (or it is just Mr. Mitchell?) perform on Broadway and he's very good. His voice has this unmistakable deep, dulcet tone that would translate well to a television romantic lead. Mitchell has appeared on television before as Dr. Jackpot Jackson in Trapper John, M.D.

Richard Kelly is the man. Not just because he'll be here all this week, posting as a guest editor for MTV Movies Blog. It helps, sure, but we're talking about the guy who made "Donnie Darko" here. And "Southland Tales." Isn't that enough? Not for Kelly it isn't. His latest brain-twisting tale, "The Box," hits theaters on November 6. And he has a dynamite week of content planned for y'all, so sit back and enjoy!

Best. Holiday. Ever.
With all of the hectic press and preparation for "The Box" (opening November 6!) – I have completely neglected the most important decision of the year.
What the hell am I going to wear for Halloween?
Last year, I had a great inspiration: none other than Sarah Palin. I can do white trash better than just about anyone, so it was an easy transformation for me to become Joe Six Pack – the quintessential Sarah Palin voter.
