Yungblud's career-affirming cover of Black Sabbath's Changes is now available to stream
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Yungblud's lauded performance of Black Sabbath's Changes from Back To The Beginning has been released to streaming services. The rising UK rocker made headlines when he played the 1972 Sabbath track at Ozzy Osbourne's retirement show at Villa Park on July 5. Backed by a supergroup consisting of Portuguese-American guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, Anthrax bassist Frank Bello, Sleep Token drummer 'II' and Ozzy's keyboardist Adam Wakeman, the vocalist gave a performance that Metal Hammer writer Rich Hobson said 'set Villa Park alight' and made for 'the first truly epic sing-along of the day'. Have a listen below. Back To The Beginning wasn't the first time Yungblud (real name Dominic Richard Harrison) aligned himself with Ozzy. The Prince Of Darkness and his wife/manager Sharon appeared in the music video for the star's 2022 single The Funeral. The video depicted the couple running over Yungblud in a car: when Ozzy asked, 'Who was that?', Sharon responded, 'Just some fucking poser.' Ozzy replied, 'Ah, run him over again, then.' Yungblud released his fourth album, Idols, on June 20 via Locomotion and Capitol. In an interview with Louder's Dave Everley, the musician called his new release a statement of 'self-reclamation'. 'It's a concept album about relinquishing your idols and finding the answers to your own life,' he explained. 'You look at a photograph on a wall, you want to be that photograph. In my case, you end up as that photograph. But then you realise the photograph never had any answers, it's me who had the answers all the time.' Yungblud is set to perform at Ilosaarirock festival in Joensuu, Finland, tonight (July 18). He'll play three Asian festivals in August, before kicking off a North American tour in Los Angeles on August 23. A European tour will start in Amsterdam on October 4.

Amazon Lets You Add Alexa to Your Car for Practically Free With 73% Off Echo Auto (Newest Model)
Smart assistants can be a huge help in a lot of aspects of our lives. They're great when you need to set an alarm because you're cooking, or helping to look up an obscure fact because a kid asked you, or you just can't quite remember the name of a specific band from 40 years ago. However, they can also be a huge help when you're driving, but that's a little harder to integrate. See at Amazon It doesn't have to be hard to manage though, and if you're looking for a way to add more Alexa into your life, but specifically your driving, then the Amazon Echo Auto is what you need. This amazing little device is normally $55, but thanks to an incredible Amazon Prime Day deal going on right now, you can get it for just $15, which is 73% off. The Amazon Echo Auto is a completely hands-free device that can easily be placed in your car, and it has five microphones built into it to make sure it can hear you no matter what you're doing. That means it's great whether you're rocking out to Sleep Token, or if you've got the AC blasting because life without it is simply too warm to deal with. Why does it listen though? Well, that's easy. It can do a huge number of different things with no problems. It functions quite similarly to the Amazon Echo Pop, which means you can ask it to play music from a huge number of sources, you can both call and message using nothing but your voice, and you can even enjoy things like podcasts or the news with no issues. If you're a smart home fan, you can even use this to connect to your smart devices there, and control things like your thermostat or even turn the lights off as long as you've got compatible devices. This means you can have the AC going before you even get home, and that's the kind of service you normally have to pay a lot more than $15 for. This device is worth it for a lot of people at $55, so the chance to save 73% on it and get it for just $15 isn't one you should miss out on. Heck, the thing even lets you fast-charge your phone.

The Beats Pill is my favorite portable Bluetooth speaker — I take everywhere and it's less than $100 right now
It's summer (in case you needed me to remind you), which means more opportunities to head outside. But if you want to take music with you, the Beats Pill is easily my favorite portable Bluetooth speaker. And, right now, you can pick up the blue Beats Pill for just $99 at Walmart, saving you $50 on the regular price. It's a steal for less than $100, since it comes with mammoth battery life (24 hours) and an IP67 water resistance rating. Those two features combined make it the ideal outdoor companion, which is why I take it about with me, and make good use of it to stream workout music while I exercise outside, soaking in the hours of sunshine. The Beats Pill is a redesigned version of the company's first (and most popular) Bluetooth speaker, now with improved sound, 24-hour battery life, USB-C charging, access to Apple's Find My network and compatibility with Android and iPhone. Plus, it's IP67-rated for water resistance, so you won't get caught short in the rain. Sometimes, when working at home on my own, I connect it to my computer and crank up to maximum volume blasting out Chappell Roan's Good Luck, Babe! or Sleep Token's Caramel — and it never sounds distorted (although max volume is loud). These tracks sound exceptional on the speaker because Beats has finally overcome its bass problem. In its early years, the company was (in)famous for the bassy depths its headphones and speakers could drop to. That was good for certain tracks, but most music got swallowed by that lower end. That's not the case with the Beats Pill. The balance it just right (to my ears) and blends the highs, mids and lows with seeming ease. And, just like my favorite workout earbuds, the Beats Powerbeats Pro (which are also currently discounted by 20%), the Pill works (almost) as well with Android devices as it does with your iPhone. Since you'll be taking the speaker around with you, there's a good chance that, one day, it'll go walkabout. Fortunately, the Pill works with Apple's Find My network, so it shouldn't take long to get it back where it belongs.

This 5.1 speaker system transformed my PC gaming setup, and it's a steal at $240 off
If there's one obvious thing your speaker setup needs to nail, it's sound quality. Thankfully, the SteelSeries Arena 9 surround sound system ticks plenty of boxes. This 5.1 setup comes with surround sound speakers, SteelSeries GG for all the customization a user could ask for and some slick RGB lighting to boot. It's a whole soundscape in a box, and after 8 months of using them for all my gaming, movie marathons and music, it's easy to recommend. So, why get these over one of the best gaming headsets? Well, if you don't have neighbours to annoy, it's hard to beat feeling completely enveloped while playing intense, narrative-driven titles or high-stakes multiplayer matches without having your ears covered. Still, its price is a tall order. Fortunately, it's just got a major price cut, as the SteelSeries Arena 9 speakers are now over $240 off at Amazon. At this price, and to really give your PC an audio upgrade, this is a steal. Boasting an immersive 5.1 surround sound setup complete with a powerful subwoofer, finely tuned woofers and tweeters for front and rear audio, along with reactive RGB lighting, the SteelSeries Arena 9 take audio in the games, movies and music you play up a notch — whether that's on PC, Mac or PS5. If you're looking to leave gaming headsets at the door and unleash the full sound of the headbanging soundtrack of Doom: The Dark Ages while ripping your way through demons, or want to feel like sitting in a warm tavern, enjoying a game of cards with friends in Hearthstone, then the SteelSeries Arena 9 are up to the task. I've always tended to reach for a headset if I want to hear an enemy's footsteps in, say, Valorant or Call of Duty: Warzone, but now I needn't do so because the sound on the Arena 9 offers a truly cinematic 3D soundstage. Gaming aside, while some had remarked that 5.1 upscaling wasn't great at launch, I found it to be a great way to listen to my eclectic music collection, both through USB (Windows) or via Bluetooth (Mac). The chiptune-esque synths and djenty guitar chugs of Sleep Token's album ''Even In Arcadia'' sound great, with the right amount of bass hitting from the floor-based sub-woofer and everything folding in nicely from the desktop speakers. Beyond sound, the Arena 9s also offer a few touches that make adjusting sound a breeze. Whether it's to switch connection type or just hit mute when I need to make a phone call, the puck-like remote is handy to have. Plus, the control pad offers a whole host of EQ options and customization. Oh, and who needs smart lighting when the speakers come with their own? Thankfully, SteelSeries GG's settings for tweaking the lighting on your speakers are, quite frankly, very impressive. You can have them cycle through colors, set solid hues for each independently, and much, much more (don't expect the longer speaker to light-up though). Be wary, though, as the rear speakers can feel as though they're communicating with spirits from time to time. From a subtle scratchy, static noise to just sounding as though they've been dunked underwater, I've heard some strange sounds on occasion, but it's not a dealbreaker in the slightest. In any case, If you want to be able to jump scare yourself by making a horror game antagonist sound as if they're right behind you, or want to upscale your music, the 5.1 SteelSeries Arena 9 can help. Now with a $240 discount? That's not a bad deal to make your games sing.
