On this week's episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew discuss the Radiohead comeback shows and then look at two surprise-releases from this past week: the debut album from Katie (Waxahatchee) & Allison Crutchfield's (Swearin') new band Snocaps, which also features MJ Lenderman and Brad Cook; and the new guest-filled EP from Heems that features Panda Bear of Animal Collective, Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, Anand Wilder of Yeasayer, and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. We also discuss how Heems just so happens to be the indie-rapper that helped inspire NYC's new Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to pursue his already-historic political career. Also highlighted in this episode: new albums from Danny Brown, Drain, Rosalía, and more; new songs from Nothing, Noname, redveil, and more; and exciting announcements from Outbreak Fest, Henry Rollins & Ian MacKaye, Death Grips, and AC/DC.

Coachella's 2026 lineup is here and we've got thoughts. All three headliners are pop stars for the first time in Coachella history, but Goldenvoice's punk roots are still well represented. Past headliners The Strokes are now one slot below Justin Bieber. The xx are back. Will Clipse have big guests? Are Nine Inch Nails doing a full EDM set with Boys Noize? What exactly is Bob Baker Marionettes? And what's up with that weird Radiohead thing? All this and more on the new episode of BV Weekly.
