Hole Reveal Track List, Cover for April 27’s “Nobody’s Daughter”

One week after performing songs from her long-awaited new disc at SXSW, Courtney Love has revealed the full details for Hole’s new album Nobody’s Daughter. According to news on the Hole Rock site, the band’s first LP in 10 years will see the light of day on April 27th via Mercury Records. That evening, Hole will grace the Late Show With David Letterman stage — let’s hope Love sits down on Dave’s couch for an interview, too — before jumping coasts for a April 29th appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Hole Cover the Rolling Stones, And Courtney Love Isn’t Satisfied at SXSW

Photo: Miller/FilmMagic “Make a hole!” yelled one of the bouncers at Dirty Dog, where Courtney Love was about to continue her return to music with a reconstituted version of her band Hole on the third night of the SXSW Music Festival. It was creeping up on 1:15 am. The crowd was packed so tightly together stage left of the dive bar that an emergency situation seemed imminent. Just then the bouncer bulldozered an opening through a space out of thin air to accommodate Woody Harrelson, dressed in a

Korn Won’t Cover Up Admiration For Prince, Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam Any Longer

When Korn taped their MTV Unplugged earlier this year, the band stocked their set with unlikely covers like Radiohead’s “Creep” and a mashup of their own “Make Me Bad” with The Cure’s “In Between Days.” Apparently, this was a sign of things to come, as the band has started working on a full-on covers album. Though they’re releasing a new album of original material July 31, Korn have already banked a bunch of covers. “We’ve already done, like, ‘Love My Way’ from Psychedelic Furs,” said frontman Jonathan Davis. “We’ve done ‘We Care a Lot’ from Faith No More [and Nine Inch Nails’] ‘Head Like a Hole.’ Those are already recorded. We just gotta get in and do some more.” Up next: Prince’s “Erotic City,” Ozzy Osbourne’s “Diary of a Madman” and Debbie Deb’s “Lookout Weekend” as done by Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam. Photo: Winter/Getty

Courtney Love Plots Hole’s Return With European Gigs, New Websites

It’s been a big week for ’90s bands confirming their returns, as Chris Cornell announced Soundgarden will be reuniting this year, too. But Hole is more like Billy Corgan’s Smashing Pumpkins, in that Love is only member of the Live Through Th

Melissa Auf der Maur on Hole reunion

Melissa Auf der Maur has revealed to Kerrang! that she was “surprised” to be excluded from Courtney Love’s plans in resurrecting Hole. The bassist joined in 1994 following original member Kristen Pfaff’s death of a drug overdose and appears on the band’s 1998 hit album Celebrity Skin. Melissa, however, remains diplomatic about the situation. “I’m so proud of my time in Hole and protective of the legacy of what I think is one of the most important female bands in a male-dominated landscape,” she

Last Night at the Beacon With the Allman Brothers … Phish Edition

Photo: Scwartz/Getty As the Allman Brothers Band get more comfortable in New York’s Beacon Theatre, their home for the rest of March, more friends are stopping by each night to jam. Rolling Stone brought you a full report from night one, which featured Taj Mahal and Levon Helm. Night two brought Johnny Winter and David Hidalgo and Cesar Rojas of Los Lobos, who guested on cuts ranging from Jimi Hendrix to Bob Dylan. Last night’s show upped the ante with living legend Buddy Guy, who led the band through a pair of blues standards before being joined onstage by Trey Anastasio and Page McConnell of Phish for first set-closer “Southbound.” Fresh off their highly successful reunion shows, Anastasio and McConnell later added their own sound to “I Know You Rider” and “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed.” Boz Scaggs has been confirmed to appear tonight, and Rolling Stone’s Smoking Section broke the news that Duane’s old Derek and the Dominoes bandmate Eric Clapton will be appearing on March 19th and 20th. The newest list of rumored cameos counts Sheryl Crow, Billy Gibbons, Kid Rock, Bob Weir and Phil Lesh among the possibilities. Many of the guests were chosen to help honor fallen guitarist Duane Allman, whose sudden death in 1971 left a gaping hole that was briefly filled by Warren Haynes and later by slide-guitar prodigy Derek Trucks in 2000. Gregg Allman, the band’s patriarch, has denied on multiple occasions that founding guitarist Dickey Betts will appear. Betts left the band after an ugly dispute in 2000, but rampant speculation suggests an offer may have been extended. His presence on the Beacon stage would reunite the four surviving members of the original lineup (Allman, Betts, drummer Butch Trucks and percussionist Jaimoe Johanson). The sold-out, 15-night residency runs through March 28th. Live streaming video of the entire rest of the run can be purchased at Moogis, a live-concert video service started by the band’s own Butch Trucks. The shows mark 20 years of visits to
