WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • CORNERSHOP BACK AND THEY’RE ACE

    When Cornershop burned a photo of Morrissey in 1992, everyone should’ve been aware that a legendary band were in ascendence. Every time Tjinder Singh & Co do something, it is our civic duty to yell about it! And so, they’ve made a super fun video and a really cool re-do of their 2018 track ‘Double…

  • BREAKNECK POP FROM HARMONY’S ‘COKE + MENTOS’

    Pop music seems to be veering into the ditch in 2024. Now, this is not to say that it is in the ditch because it sucks, but rather, because there’s a brand of reckless, very silly, hedonistic pop that’s not too concerned with being polite and polished. If this is some kind of brat szn,…

  • REVIEW / REMI WOLF / BIG IDEAS

    Remi Wolf seems to be someone who thought about putting all her ideas and buoyancy on a tight leash, but soon found out that it was impossible and they all just erupted out of the top of her head. On stage, she’s infectious and with so much energy that it can feel like watching someone…

  • NEW KING GIZ

    King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is a silly band name, but that’s cool and they know it. They are a prolific band and there’s no-one quite like them as they veer from psych, to metal, to prog, to whatever else takes their fancy. They have a new album coming out called ‘FLIGHT b741’, and of…

  • KATY PERRY IS CONFUSING AND NOT IN A FUN WAY

    The annoying section of music fans who insist on saying ‘album cycle’ and ‘eras’ will be having a field day today as Katy Perry has released a new song, which signifies the start of her new ‘album cycle’ or ‘era’. It’s viral marketing talk for ‘having a new record out’, and of course, when there’s…

  • DEJ LOAF AND THE 80S BOOGIE RAP

    ‘Try Me’ by Dej Loaf was one of the best underground hip hop smashes when it was released back in 2014, and other hits followed. However, Dej kinda vanished for a while, quietly slipping away and presumably recalibrating. It seemed that, for all intents and purposes, she was done with The Industry. Well, lately, she’s…

  • NEW MUSIC FROM THE UNTHANKS

    The folk tradition is something that is always alive and well, and concerning The Unthanks, ever more so.

  • AMYL + THE SNIFFERS UNCENSORED VIDEO

    Amyl and the Sniffers have a new video out and there’s a lot of nudity in it. It’s the kind of video that, if you’re getting your knickers in a twist about it, then you’re the kind of uptight tool that could probably do with a bit of skinny dipping to sort yourself out. First,…
