![ED SHEERAN MIGHT QUIT MUSIC [JOKES + SERIOUS STUFF]](https://thepopcorps.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ed-sheeran.webp?w=1024)
Ed Sheeran has said that he might knock the whole music thing on the head if he loses his case in a copyright infringement trial. Are we going to joke about this? Of course we are, because partly, it’s funny in a lowest common denominator way. However, there’s a serious point in all of this…

Like looking at ace 70s graphic design? Cool fonts? You’re in luck. You’ll have to not sneer at Richard Nixon briefly, but you’re a grown up, you’ll manage. Here’s a great, short video that should set you off down some graphic design wormholes.

You know Crazy Town don’t you? Come my lady, come, come my lady lol. Anyway, we’re not arsed about their music and we’re assuming you’re not either. An embarrassing, ugly fist-fight? COUNT US IN! You’ve probably already seen this, but it’s the weekend and we’ve gone to the pub and just scheduled this. The singers…

Rico Nasty makes mega fun club hip hop, and once again, we see they’re in a tagteam with 100 Gecs, so we’re in for a whole load of trouble as usual! The new track is called ‘Turn It Up’, and seeing as Rico Nasty coined the phrase ‘sugar trap’ about her music, it’s funny that…

There’s a new LP due from Yussef Dayes called ‘Black Classic Music’ on September 8th, and if you’re a head on the UK jazz scene currently, you’ll be more than aware of the swirl around the percussionist right now. Expect some heavy, heavy music for sure. Yussef Dayes, in jazzer form, shared his thoughts: “What…

Kesha’s time with Dr Luke will go down in music history as one of the most troubling chapters we’ve seen, at least in recent years. There’ll be documentaries about it, for sure. Go acquaint yourself if you haven’t already, but get comfy, because there’s a lot to bone up with. If you know already, then…

Ace new group of evil-doers, Deaf Whip, have released a tremendously stylish and sexy live session for you to be summoned by. Deaf Whip are the child of all manner of great shit, and in this you’ll hear psychedelic drone, heavy heavy fuzz, brutalist electronic analogue doom, goth punk, and so much more. A co-pro…

‘Sound of the Underground’ on vinyl? Lovely coloured vinyl? What’s not to love about that, Girls Aloud fans? It’s the 20th anniversary of the LP, and you can pre-order it and then when it eventually arrives at your house, you can hold it like it’s your first born child. Order it via the Girls Aloud…

We were listening to ‘Come On, Eileen’ by Dexy’s the other day, and for the first time ever, wondered what that opening line was all about. If you’re not familiar, its: “Poor old Johnnie Ray; sounded sad upon the radio, moved a million hearts in mono. Our mothers cried, sang along, who’d blame them?“ That’s…

You probably love Thundercat already and, unless you’re some precise age that actively hates the popularity of Tame Impala because you were annoyed at all your classmates liking them when you were ranting and raving about The Cramps or something, you probably quite like a couple of Tame Impala tracks. Well, the two have teamed…

TSHA HAS SOME DANCEFLOOR DYNAMITE FOR YOU
TSHA has a new song out called ‘Green’ and its ace! It’s a dancer, but it’s an emotional affair too – just what we like to see! There’s nothing quite like an emotional banger, right? She says: “Me and my partner were in the studio together, about to write something. He was getting on my nerves,…

SOCCER MOMMY IS BACK, KIDS
A little while ago, there was a spate of records and acts that were kinda miserable, but anthemic with it. It wasn’t exactly Grunge 2.0, but emotional lyrics and crunchy guitars were definitely back. One of the better artists from this period was Soccer Mommy, who as it happens, is back with a new song!…

NEW MUSIC FROM MEN I TRUST
Men I Trust – it’s been a while. The last thing they put out was back in 2021 when they released their ‘Untourable Album’, which went down very well with everyone. Of course, there’s been dribs and drabs, and last year they put out the ace ‘Ring of Past’, but now, they’re back with a…

PSYCHY ELECTRONICS FROM THE GREEN CHILD
The Green Child are an Aussie group that went from two members to four (apologies for the old picture, then) and they have a really cool new single out called ‘Wow Factor’ which reminds us of loads of good stuff made by loads of other cool and unique bands. Seriously, we’re into it! There’s a…
