Two RTJ4 visuals take sharply different routes: Winston Hacking’s collage animation for ‘JU$T’ and Ninian Doff’s comic caper for ‘Out of Sight’.

RTJ4 arrived during protests over police violence, but its most devastating lines had been recorded the previous year. Its force lay in that grim continuity.

Tom Morello’s one-day Maryland festival will be livestreamed via MS NOW’s YouTube channel from 1:00pm ET on Saturday 3rd October.

A guide to the remixes, 11 instrumentals and Cyberpunk 2077 track added to Run The Jewels’ fourth album in 2021.

Run The Jewels’ bond with rock audiences came from the force of their live shows, a two-MC dynamic built for collective release, and collaborations that extended their world without changing its centre.

A route through Kneecap’s releases, from an early Irish-language single and mixtape to two increasingly expansive studio albums.

Serj Tankian and Dropkick Murphys are also confirmed for the inaugural Maryland event in October.

The Run The Jewels rapper joins the Belfast trio on reworked 'FENIAN' cut.
