WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Lorde’s new roll-out has been a pretty interesting one, with impromptu parties and such, and now a new song called ‘Man of the Year’, which is emotionally exposing in more than one way in the new video. Of the new LP – ‘Virgin’ – she’s sharing a new video where she throws herself wholeheartedly into…
-
Look, we know Boiler Room kinda stinks – but when they do it right, they’re one of the best in the business against your better judgement. With that, in what feels like old Internet, giving you something totally unique, regional, and new, Ethiopian Records did a Boiler Room set and it’s an instant classic. New…

When Drugdealer are on form, they’re irresistible. Weyes Blood is one of the finest artists on the planet right now. Add the two together? Magic. Of course, this is not the first collaboration between these two things, but this new track is a welcome return from some time out for both, and Weyes Blood is…

August 29th sees a new album from pastoral post rockers, Modern Nature, and the long player goes by the name of ‘The Heat Warps’. You can hear a track from it which is called ‘Pharaoh’, and with a kneejerk reaction granted, it sounds like a career best from the project, although they’d be loathed to…

Saint Etienne have always been into interesting collaborations, from teaming up with Tim Burgess for a Christmas single, to Monkey Mafia remixes and more! With their latest release, they’re doing more of the same! They have a new LP called ‘International’ and from it, you can listen to a track called ‘Glad’, which features Tom…

Everything we’ve heard from the imminent Yaya Bey album has been great, so this is a further call for you to be ready for the release of ‘Do It Afraid’, which is coming out June 20th. We think it’ll be one of the R&B albums of 2025. Don’t wait for someone else to get you…

Pearl Charles is one of our favourite artists and we’ve featured her on this site before and countless playlists, from the burning-hot disco of ‘Only For Tonight’ to the recent Lauren Canyon gorgeousness meets Muscle Shoals soul of ‘Step Too Far’. A hugely talented song-writer, Charles will be playing some live shows in the UK…

Alison Goldfrapp’s about to release her second solo LP, which is called ‘Flux’, and if you’re hoping that she’s rediscovered her love of kinky glam synthpop, then you are absolutely in luck. The new song is exactly that! Now, don’t get us wrong – she’s not just wheeling out the old sound for clout –…
-
We have to admit that we didn’t listen to any Yeasayer, but they called it quits and co-honcho Anand Wilder decided to make music under his own name. On the strength of the new single, perhaps we ought to revisit his former group? After some solo releases, in 2025, we’re looking at ‘Appointment in Samarra’,…

You don’t even have to start stories about the USA with “imagine a scenario, where…” because frankly, they’re already there. The country is broken, and a good chunk of Americans already know it. They’ve gone beyond farce. Look at the recent spat between Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump and his MAGA supporters. Springsteen hit out…

IS THIS REALLY THE SWIFTIES VS TECH BROS VOTE IN THE USA?
The presidential race in the USA has a lot hanging on it, for sure, but regardless of that, the whole thing has made for some really good TV. It always does, because one thing the Americans love, is making great television. A thick line has been drawn and either side of it stand two candidates…

WAVY RAP FROM BABYFACE RAY
A lovely little Detroit one-two here from Babyface Ray, featuring Veeze. Babyface has a new album this week called ‘The Kid That Did’ which we’re looking forward to hearing. In advance, you can listen to ‘Wavy Navy University’, which is a psychedelic take on trap-hop. Big Sean, Pusha T and G Herbo count themselves as…

MUNA: SCARY FANS
MUNA are great, have had a number of hot songs, and with that, have seen their popularity rightly grow. The group’s identity have seen them filling a hole in pop culture which has seen a pocket of fans feeling incredibly seen by them, to use the common parlance of the youth. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it turns…

INDIE FUZZ FROM GIRL SCOUT
If you’re in the market for some seriously fun indie fuzz pop, then you will like the new song from Swedish group Girl Scout, who just so happen to have told everyone that they’ve got a new EP coming out. The EP is called ‘Headache’ and it’ll be out in November (where did the year…
