Here at LivexLive, we love to count stuff down. In fact, we offer a killer assortment of weekly shows that run through the top songs in every major genre. For example, we just launched the latest edition of the Weekly ROCK Countdown (and, yes, we put the word “rock” in all cap’s for a reason). Five interesting things about the countdown follow, and you can check out the whole, massive thing right here.

Thing #1: Slipknot scored one of two debuts this week, as “Unsainted” slipped in at #40. They revealed their new masks last week, and joined our countdown this week. Nice work, Slipknot.

Thing #2: I Prevail made the biggest jump, soaring from #37 to #22 with “Breaking Down.” The song raises awareness about depression for men and how it impacts relationships. It’s deep. And it’s kind of pretty. But it still rocks, so shut up.

Thing #3: Bad Wolves continue to kick serious ass. “Remember When” has held down the top slot for six weeks now.

Thing #4: Rival Sons have been stuck at #2 for the entire six weeks that Bad Wolves have been at #1. Don’t feel bad for them, though, they just announced a 12-city fall tour with Stone Temple Pilots.

Thing #5: Sevendust cannot be destroyed. Their track “Dirty” has been on the countdown for twenty consecutive weeks. That’s nuts, and they’re still moving up, jumping two slots to #22

There are plenty of other things to learn on the Weekly ROCK Countdown. So join us and learn. And rock.

Allow us to draw your attention to the EDM superstar who conquered the Kinetic stage when the clock struck midnight on the second day of EDC Las Vegas, 2019.  Tiesto.

By happenstance, we invited the man that Mix magazine dubbed “the Greatest DJ of All Time” to host his own radio station. On Tiësto: I Am The DJ, he plays his favorite songs and tells the stories behind them. We cornered him in studio in Vegas where he broke down tons of his own tracks and collaborations, as well songs he admires from the likes of David Guetta, Clean Bandit, and his “buddy” Martin Garrix.

Brad Paisley can shred. Anybody who’s ever seen him play guitar knows this, and he’s without question one of the best guitar players in Nashville. And he recently got to jam with a bunch of other guys who know a little something about shredding, but maybe not as much about… Nashville.

It all started when Fender Guitars partnered with HBO for a line of deluxe, built-to-order guitars that represent the three main houses in Game of Thrones. Then they invited these guys to the Fender Custom Shop to play them, and Brad joins Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, Scott Ian from Anthrax, and Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme, along with GOT creater Dan Weiss, and they play a metal guitar arrangement of the show’s theme song composed by GOT’s Ramin Djawadi.

Watch as Brad adds some requested “fairy dust”  with a solo that – let’s face it – impresses the other players.

Music, stories and more… so let’s do this.  https://www.livexlive.com/station/weekly-alternative-countdown

 When Kacey Musgraves does a thing, she doesn’t do it half way. Like, when she puts out an award-winning album like Golden Hour, she wins ALL. THE. AWARDS. Or, like when she goes to the Met Costume Institute benefit gala, where the theme is “Camp: Notes On Fashion.” 

Oh, yes. Kacey went all the way camp and all the way Barbie. THIS Barbie, as a matter of fact.

First of all, who even knew there was a Metropolitan Museum of Art version of Barbie? Apparently Kacey and her team did, and they copied the look EXACTLY. The blonde hair, the exact dress, the earrings, the wrap, the sunglasses, and OMG can we talk about the hairdryer purse?!

But Kacey didn’t stop there. Oh, no. Girlfriend rolled up on the gala in a Barbie pink Corvette in a perfect Barbie pose. 

It’s not clear whether her driver was Ken. 

Needless to say, Kacey Musgraves was the talk of the gala and the internet. I think Twitter might have blown up over her look. But she’s not done.

Kacey just announced she’s signed a modeling contract with IMG Models, and according to this promo video they tweeted, she’s featured in this month’s V magazine music issue. 

Check out Kacey's tweet here.
