I guess that we'll find out soon enough. Sacred Bones which is the music label that released his previous musical efforts are promoting it heavily, also Chrystia Bell's social network accounts.

It was cancelled by Netflix some time ago, around 2 years.

Most likely a new musical project. https://www.facebook.com/SacredBones/posts/pfbid035geDPgkAKxKrEaQF9ostuB2odZTkTU1v1vtZCwsv8RAj4NVaVYezos8vEcJkvq3zl

Czech President Petr Pavel has been taken to hospital after injuring himself while riding a motorcycle, his office has said. It said the injuries "are not serious", but a "short observation" was required. It gave no further details. Thursday's accident is the latest extra-curricular injury the Czech leader has suffered. In April, he suffered an injury while firing a weapon at a shooting range. The former general suffered a minor laceration near his eyebrows while shooting with a rifle equipped with an optic, his office said at the time. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4nnj206e63o

The most promiment group in the Israeli right nowdays are the Religious Zionists (who in the last few weeks have been physically attacking drivers of random trucks in the occupied territories and Jerusalem), and other followers of HaRav Kook, they see this attack and the war that follows as a necessary step towards redemption, or Ge'ula as they call it, and the coming of the Messiah. For them, the people of Gaza are descendants of Amalek, and the people murdered in the attack are a necessary sacrifice to capture the land which they own, and rebuild Gush Katif.

Smith, David Thomas cancelling shows, the steady rate of demise in these particular sub geners (in which I include Coldwave, Post/Dance-Punk, Gothic Rock, No Wave, Industrial, etc.) and the altogether senescence (adding to a sometimes unhealty life habits) of some household names - the necessity is growing.
