In a recent interview with The Standard promoting her BBC Radio 6 Music and BBC Sounds series, "Courtney Love's Women," Courtney Love slammed Taylor Swift, saying "she's not important" and "not interesting as an artist."

"Taylor is not important," Love said. "She might be a safe space for girls, and she's probably the Madonna of now, but she's not interesting as an artist."

It's not known why Love has a contrarian view about Swift now after having wished her a happy birthday in December 2021 via Facebook. She called Swift an "aspirational huge role model for many young women" at the time. The post also featured a photo of Love and her "occasional hair twin/neighbor."

Courtney also spoke about Lana Del Rey and Madonna during the recent interview with The Standard.

"I haven't liked Lana since she covered a John Denver song, and I think she should really take seven years off," she said. "Up until 'Take Me Home Country Roads' I thought she was great. When I was recording my new album, I had to stop listening to her as she was influencing me too much."

About Madonna, Love said, "I don't like her and she doesn't like me. I loved Desperately Seeking Susan, but for the city of New York as much as her."

Oasis recently shared a previously unreleased live recording of "Supersonic" to mark the 30th anniversary of the release of their iconic debut single.

The version is now available as a limited edition on physical single formats, including a replica of the 1994 CD single, which also includes the white label demo of "Columbia," and an individually numbered pearl colored 7" vinyl.

Oasis recorded the studio version of "Supersonic" in one day at the Pink Museum Studio in Liverpool in late 1993 and released the song as the band's debut single on April 11, 1994. It reached Number 31 on the U.K. Singles Chart.

During a recent appearance on NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Adam Levine spoke about an Instagram video that showed Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger dancing to Maroon 5's 2011 hit "Moves Like Jagger."

"My mom and like one of my friends sent me the video," He continued. "I was shocked not more people sent it to me."

Last month, the 80-year old British rock star had shared a clip featuring his moves to a cover of "Moves Like Jagger" played by Splash. He captioned the post, "Moves like who!"

Slash and Gibson have collaborated on a new signature model guitar: the "Jessica" Les Paul Standard.

"Jessica" has been Slash's main stage guitar since 1988 and has been used primarily to perform songs from Guns N' Roses' debut album Appetite for Destruction. It has remained his go-to instrument for live performances ever since he retired his Kris Derrig and Max Baranet LP replicas in the late '80s.

Slash first acquired Jessica around 1988. The guitar was one of two factory seconds with three-piece tops that Gibson sent Slash. Originally, the guitar came fitted with a bright Cherry Sunburst, though it was later re-finished with a slightly more subtle Honey Burst.

The new model features a three-piece plain maple top on a non-weight-relieved mahogany body and a mahogany neck with a 50s Vintage neck profile. "Jessica" is powered by a pair of Custom Burstbucker pickups with Alnico 2 magnets that are hand-wired to Orange Drop capacitors.

"This guitar has been with me since 1988," Slash said in a press release. "It's faded, I f---ing dropped a cigarette on it . I named it when I was drunk, but I don't remember what the catalyst for that was!"

The "Jessica" signature model retails for $3,199 and is available via Gibson's website.

Former Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider has said that the offers the band are receiving to reunite have almost become too good to turn down.

In an interview with "The Hook Rocks!" podcast, Snider offered an update on the status of the band, who did reunite for a one-off performance in 2023 for Twisted Sister's induction to the Metal Hall of Fame.

"As a result of all the bands retiring and dying, the offers get bigger and bigger for the holdouts to come back. And we retired in 2016, I think it was. So we're on eight years now of not playing, with no intention of coming back," Snider explained. "But - my father, he says, 'Everything before the word 'but' is bullsh*t - but at some point, you've gotta say, 'Well, how can I say no to that?'"

He continued, "Is it there yet? No. Is it getting close? Yeah. Is there talk amongst us, like, 'Well, in the event that the numbers do get there, and they sure as hell seem to be going in that direction, how are we gonna do this?' So there's a little bit of that conversation. And that's both physically how we're gonna do it and on a number of other levels."

Snider also confirmed that the remaining band members are all friends, saying, "The surviving guys, we all talk and we're all friends and we love each other. And that was one of the great things that came out of getting back together the first time is that we managed to fix the friendships and be friends and that, to me, is really why I wanted to do it in the first place, getting back [together] last time. So, anyway, we'll see what happens."
