Grand Theft Auto VI is coming on November 19th:

Preorders start at midnight tonight, local time, when you’ll be able to reserve a copy on PS5 or Xbox Series X/S. You’ll be able to order either digital or physical editions of the game, though Rockstar has confirmed that even the physical editions contain “a download code inside the box.” The upside is that they’ll ship from November 12th, allowing buyers of either edition to preload the game ahead of its full release on November 19th.

As part of the transaction, HarbourView has acquired the publisher’s share of select compositions written by the Wolf Cousins collective, which includes hit songs released by Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, the Weeknd and many more. Sources tell Variety the acquisition price is in the low nine figures, although reps for HarbourView did not confirm that information and said the company does not disclose deal terms.

Interview: Snarls

A couple of weeks ago, I was able to schedule a Zoom call with all four members of indie pop band, Snarls, to discuss their vibrant new EP called In Heaven There’s Rainbows. In this interview, I asked the band about where the title of the EP came from, which songs came easiest during the writing process to get to the finish line, and how they’re crafting the setlist for their co-headlining tour with Future Teens. One of my favorite quotes from this conversation was lead vocalist/guitarist Chlo White’s comment regarding how the band decides if a song will be included in a set: “The last couple years, when we’re deciding what goes on a setlist, it’s like, ‘Do you feel hot and sexy playing this?’ And if the answer is no, we’re scrapping it!” In Heaven There’s Rainbows releases this Friday, and pre-order options are available here.
