WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • APRIL FOOL’S DAY

    We’re not bothering with anything like here, don’t worry. Everything you read today is just a normal story. However, that said, now we’ve drawn attention to it you might think we’ve completely made up our imminent Keanu Reeves piece up, when we haven’t. He’s just that nice.

  • BLUE LIGHTS FROM JAYDA G NOT TO BE MISSED

    She’s a DJ, she’s a producer – Jayda G is bring good and hypnotic vibes to make your feet move around wildly and, luckily enough, there’s a new tune out called ‘Blue Lights’ which is really good. There’s a new LP due too, called ‘Guy’, and that’ll be on Ninja Tune, which is a name…

  • FRIPP & TOYAH HEAVILY FEATURING BREASTS, FOR THE CAUSE

    It’s difficult trying to avoid being cancelled when someone keeps getting their breasts out and we, responsible music critics must pretend we haven’t seen the aforementioned breasts. Even if we have noticed the breasts, then we must underline how people should be able to free their breasts for whatever reason they like, because the people…

  • PSYCHEDELIC TWANGS WITH IMMATERIAL POSSESSION

    If you’ve not heard of Immaterial Possession, they’re an odd bunch. That’s a good thing, before you start any of that nonsense. They’ve got a new tune out called ‘Mercy of the Crane Folk’. What’s that about you ask? Well, it’s a song that is apparently a tale about a needy ghost that never gets…

  • 03 GREEDO BUSS ME A SCRIPT

    03 Greedo has served 5 years in prison and is out on parole and, out of the gate, he’s not messing around. He’s got a new track out called ‘Buss Me A Script’ which features Maxo Kream and it is haaaaaaaarrrrrrrd. There’s a new LP in offing too (might be a mixtape, might not be…

  • LETS TALK ABOUT HOW ED SHEERAN DOESN’T SEE THE POINT IN MUSIC CRITICS

    Ed Sheeran has said that he doesn’t see the point in music critics. You might think that this is going to provoke some kind of butt-hurt response from us, given that this is a place for music criticism. Well, largely, there’s a point to this notion, given that people have Spotify and YouTube now, so…

  • V V BROWN BACK AND BLACK BRITISH

    Granted, that seems like an incredibly Brexity headline, but V V Brown is back with a new track called ‘Black British’, so we’re not being massive gammons. You may remember V V’s rootsy pop from the Noughties, but it’s 2023, and she’s got something she wants to say. And this is potent stuff, where she…

  • NEW GIRLS ALOUD MUSIC

    There’s going to be new music from Girls Aloud (if you’re pretending you don’t like them, you can stop now – it’s not cute) and that’s been confirmed by the achingly tremendous Kimberley Walsh. This is to mark the 20th anniversary of their debut LP ‘Sound Of The Underground’. The girls have been moderately active…

  • EUROVISION ON THE CINEMA SCREEN

    Great news if you want to sit with a load of other people and watch the Eurovision Song Contest at high volume – it’s going to be broadcast in British cinemas for the first time ever. Of course, everyone was trying to get tickets for the show in Liverpool and the whole thing sold out…

  • BOLLYWOOD VERSUS SPOTIFY

    If you’ve made the killer Bollywood playlist to end them all on Spotify, you may have noticed that it’s not what it once was, and that’s because there’s hundreds of Bollywood music tracks missing on the platform, which is incredibly annoying. This has happened for boring business reasons, rather than anything actively nefarious. Spotify say…

  • LEMON TWIGS + TCHOTCHKE XMAS SONG

    The Lemon Twigs and Tchotchke have teamed up for a Christmas song, which goes by the name ‘Tchotchkes’. It’s a fun slice of retro, festive, harmony pop which you’d expect and hope for, and if you’re looking for a new Christmas song for the playlists, this might be it! Get stuck in!

  • MORE BILL CALLAHAN

    We already shared the first of Bill Callahan’s new music – but there’s more! ‘Lonely City’ is the second song from the forthcoming ‘My Days of 58’ album, and is apparently a tribute to the Big Apple, New York city. He says: “Lonely City is a song I’ve been meaning to write for decades. It…

  • KING GIZ AI SPOTIFY IMPERSONATION DOOM

    While thick people enjoy the fruits of artificial intelligence, everyone is left rolling their eyes and tightening their fists. Either way, the tech is outpacing any human response to it, and it’s making a real mess in the process. Take for example, some songs appearing on Spotify impersonating King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, and…

  • SASSY 009 + YUNE PINKU

    We’re big fans of Yunè Pinku, which is how we stumbled into the new one from Sassy 009, who happen to have their debut album coming out next month (in January 2026, if you’re not reading this hot off the press). The album is called ‘Dreamer+’, and the new Pinku featuring single is called ‘Mirrors’,…
