Parkway Drive return with new song Sacred
Parkway Drive have returned with their first single in three years. The Australian heavy metal quintet - who first formed in 2003, and released their debut album 'Killing With a Smile' two years later - have described their new song 'Sacred' as a "wrecking ball of positive energy". Frontman Winston McCall said in a statement about the track: "The mission statement for 'Sacred' is pretty damn simple. An anthemic wrecking ball of positive energy. 'Our lives and the way we exist in the world has been pushed further and further through the lenses and frames of negativity and hopelessness. "Obsession with everything we lack, everything we hate, everyone we blame, everything that keeps us down. 'We sell the unique parts of us most precious just to buy back manufactured pieces of self in order that we may feel whole again. ''Sacred' is our identity. 'Sacred' is our time. Never lose sight and never lose hope.' As of yet, there is no word on the follow-up to their 2022 LP 'Darker Still'. Winston previously shared how their music gets "darker" when the "world gets darker". Speaking about their last studio effort, he told NME: "I guess Parkway's work gets darker because [the world] gets darker – the concept of 'Darker Still', even just as a phrase in itself, very much mirrors what is actually happening in the world."

The Ultimate Culinary Itinerary Through New Orleans
Last Updated: Enjoy the culinary world of New Orleans New Orleans' culinary credentials have ensured that it is one of the finest food destinations in the world. From the rustic flavours of Creole and Cajun cooking to globally renowned James Beard-awarded chefs and restaurants, the city's local culture of celebrating the bounty of the region is diverse and enthralling. This culinary trip covers the best and most authentic flavours of New Orleans. Beignets at Cafe du Monde – Pair these classics sweet treats with a cup of cafe au lait for the ultimate New Orleans experience. Po-Boys – Fried oyster, shrimp, catfish, or garlicky roast beef, po-boys are a must try. Parkway and Domilise's are two favourites for these classics in New Orleans. Lunch at Galatoire's – Patrons of this 'Grand Dame" of Creole dining are sure to make a reservation in advance to grab a table in Galatoire's famous downstairs dining room. Expect delicious, classic New Orleans food in an elegant, French Quarter atmosphere. Order the goute to start, a shareable feast of crab maison and shrimp remoulade or tack on an order of oysters en brochette (fried, bacon-wrapped oysters). Their turtle soup au sherry and Godchaux salad are must-try dishes on the menu. Red Beans from Dooky Chase's – The late Chef Leah Chase's famous Tremé restaurant has been synonymous with decadent Creole cuisine since it opened as a sandwich shop in 1939. Try a little bit of everything, from red beans and rice to fried oyster salad and the stuffed shrimp. Fried Chicken at Willie Mae's Scotch House – Around the corner from Dooky Chase, you will find a long line and what the Travel Channel once labelled 'America's Best Fried Chicken." Barbecue Shrimp at Pascal's Manale- New Orleans-style barbecue shrimp is as messy as it is delicious with the French bread, a necessary accompaniment to the buttery, peppery sauce on this dish. The barbecue shrimp originated at this unassuming Uptown gem, where you can also get your raw oyster fix. Turtle Soup at Commander's Palace – Turtle Soup and pecan pie are staples, though everything at this Haute Creole restaurant is tasty. Enjoy classics like Commander's Creole gumbo, pecan-crusted Gulf fish, and Creole bread pudding soufflé. Muffalettas from Central Grocery – These sandwiches are perfect for sharing. Grab one from Central Grocery and then take it up to Woldenberg Park for a picnic along the river, where you can watch the steamboats pass. Traditional Vietnamese Food – New Orleans' thriving Vietnamese community delivers seriously authentic Vietnamese staples such as phở and báhn mì all across the city. Favourites include Lilly's Cafe and Pho Tau Bay. Sno-balls – Perhaps one of the most delicious ways to cool off, the snowball is a favourite treat in New Orleans from early spring through late fall. Fans fiercely support their favourite places, such as Hansen's Sno-Bliz, which has been open since 1939 and Plum Street Snowballs tucked away in Uptown. Bananas Foster – Invented at Brennan's but offered at many restaurants, it is a dessert to savour. You will watch an expert server prepare the dish before your table, and the cooking demo includes an impressive pyrotechnic display. Crawfish – While it should be on every foodie's list to try boiled crawfish, there is plenty of ways to enjoy spicy mudbugs all over town. Try a hot dog made with crawfish sausage and topped with crawfish étouffée at Dat Dog, and Vietnamese crawfish boils at Boil Seafood House. You can find traditional boiled crawfish and sides at Frankie & Johnny's. Gulf Oysters – Whether you like them raw on the half shell or chargrilled, enjoy oysters at Acme Oyster House. Gumbo- Gumbo is a New Orleans staple prepared differently by every chef. Try it from famous spots like The Munch Factory or Liuzza's by the Track. Pralines – Pralines are a southern sweet made from sugar, milk, and pecans. Grab one while you are here from an authentic shop like Loretta's Authentic Pralines or Aunt Sally's Pralines. Alligator Cheesecake from Jacques-Imo's- Jacques-Imo's is a classic, yet funky, New Orleans spot for fried food and seafood. Their signature alligator cheesecake is one-of-a-kind. To have a unique experience, ask to be seated in the truck bed out front. Soufflé Potatoes – Think of a blown-up French fry and you might be close to imagining soufflé potatoes. The super thin potatoes are puffed with air and paired with béarnaise sauce for dipping. You can get a taste at Arnaud's or Galatoire's, both James Beard Award-Winning restaurants. Hot Boudin from Cochon Butcher – From chefs Donald Link and Stephen Stryjewski, Cochon Butcher is a deli and butcher serving classic Cajun meats. It is an outpost of their larger restaurant, Cochon, located right next door. Their hot boudin is a must-try while in Southern Louisiana. Get in the Holiday Spirit with a Réveillon – Historically, Réveillon dinners were multi-course, extravagant meals served after Christmas Eve mass. Today, many of the city's best restaurants celebrate the holiday season with special prix fixe menus all December long. Learn the Tricks – If you are looking to expand your own cooking skills and bring a little New Orleans back with you, try out classes at one of the many culinary schools such as the New Orleans School of Cooking. tags : lifestyle New Orleans New Orleans Pelicans travel Location : New Delhi, India, India First Published: April 23, 2025, 10:31 IST News lifestyle » travel The Ultimate Culinary Itinerary Through New Orleans

There is no try: Do or do not see loads of Star Wars movies at the Parkway in May
May the Fourth be with anyone trying to get tickets at the last minute. The Parkway Theater in Minneapolis has unveiled its May movie series, and it'll be a Star Wars-filled month. The theater's "Star Wars Month" programming will put a galaxy far, far away on the screen five times throughout the month, starting with a screening on Star Wars Day, May 4. It'll kick off the series with the May the Fourth screening of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. (A well-timed opportunity to brush up on the origins of Cassian Andor before the final three episodes of Andor are released on May 13.) After that opening screening, the Parkway will head back to the beginning and play episodes IV through VII one week at a time. For casual fans who can't keep the various storylines and lore at the front of their mind, that'll be A New Hope (1977) on May 10, The Empire Strikes Back (1980) on May 17, The Return of the Jedi (1983) on May 24, and, finally, The Force Awakens (2015) on May 31. Passes for the full five-movie run are available now for $43.85 (with taxes and fees) or $32.30 for viewers 12 and under. The theater's other movie series for May is dubbed "Don't Quit Your Day Job" and features screenings of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) on May 7, Fight Club (1999) on May 14, Moonstruck (1987) on May 21, and The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) on May 27.
