Fifty years after it first washed up from the surf at Point Dume, Neil Young's Zuma remains one of his most quietly volatile records, a bruised and beautiful return to Crazy Horse that mixed pastoral reflection with jagged electric bursts, and gave the world the towering epic Cortez The Killer.

Neil Young has again stepped into the political spotlight, releasing a provocative new video titled As Time Explodes. The two-minute film, shared via his official YouTube channel on Thursday 30 October, takes aim at Donald Trump and the growing influence of tech billionaires.

Fifty years after Neil Young's most haunting and cathartic album first saw the light of day, Tonight's The Night is being reborn. To mark the half-century milestone, Young has announced a limited deluxe 50th Anniversary Edition of the 1975 classic, complete with six bonus tracks drawn from the original 1973 recording sessions that birthed what many consider his most emotionally raw work.

Neil Young has announced he will once again remove his music from a major digital platform, this time targeting Amazon, while urging fans to boycott large corporations and instead support local businesses.

Jim Jarmusch’s latest film, Father Mother Sister Brother, unfolds as a quietly resonant triptych—three subtly linked vignettes set in rural America, Dublin, and Paris—that trace the delicate tensions and aching silences between grown children and their elders. At its emotional core is Tom Waits, delivering a character wrought with understated charm and oddball slyness, playing an enigmatic father whose mismatched wristwear—a genuine Rolex amid apparent poverty—hints at hidden motives and eccentric resilience.

Neil Young has gone into full trump attack mode with his latest salvo in the world of protest music. “Big Crime” hits with the fury of a veteran rocker who knows his voice still matters.

On August 15, 2025, Neil Young officially severed his official Facebook presence. The move was a direct response to revelations that Meta’s AI chatbots were permitted to engage in “romantic or sensual” conversations with minors.
