Adam Lambert says new solo music is “on the horizon” while Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor take time off following the end of The Rhapsody Tour.

Queen have once again opened the vaults, with Brian May confirming that an unreleased track titled Not For Sale (Polar Bear) will finally receive an official release as part of a major 2026 reissue of Queen II. The song, shared publicly for the first time in a rough, work-in-progress form late last year, predates the formation of Queen itself and reaches back to the band's earliest creative roots.

The Struts have dusted off their breakout 2013 single, “Could Have Been Me,” and injected a re-recording with a riff-powered shot of Sir Brian May on lead guitar.

Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen have been awarded the 2025 Polar Music Prize by Sweden's King Carl Gustaf.

In 1970 in the very early days of Queen, Queen used to play a Cliff Richard and the Shadows song ‘Please Don’t Tease’. The Shadows co-founder and guitarist Hank Marvin tells Noise11 that he wasn’t aware of that fun fact but he has recorded with Sir Brian May over the years.

Sir Brian May says new Queen music "could happen".

Gibson has partnered with Sir Brian May to release the Brian May SJ-200 12-String acoustic guitar.
