WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
If you’re into DIY indie music, chances are, you’re already fizzing with excitement at the mere mention of Comet Gain. If you’re not, let us introduce you to them with their new single called ‘Beat Of The Veins’. It’s skuzzy pop music, and this new song heralds the imminent arrival of new long-player, ‘Letters To…

Look, we understand that talking about anyone’s appearance is entirely reductive, especially when part of this project is about (in her own words) not “chasing perfection.” However, as raw as her new video is, we couldn’t stop looking at her fancy teeth. Have they been like that for ages? Is that the difference between normal…

Eurovision is tonight, so if you don’t want spoilers, look away. The bookmakers have been having their say, after doing whatever research they do, and listening to whatever grapevine they’ve been earwigging. Will they be right? Maybe, maybe not. We’ll find out on the night. We can listen to their five favourites in advance, and…

We wondered if Wolf Alice were coming back. Well, turns out they were and they have a new single out which is really cool and has a whiff of NYC Cuban music about it, which is never a bad thing! The single is called ‘Bloom Baby Bloom’ and it’ll appear on new album ‘The Clearing’.…

They’ve been on tour with hot new Alt Country thing, MJ Lenderman, so it won’t surprise anyone who hasn’t heard of Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band are cut from a very similar cloth, making fun slacker country music for lads who drink PBR and chong weed vapes. Hailing from Kentucky, Ryan Davis and his…

Tchotchke are one of the finest power pop, bubblegum groups around. You heard their Lemon Twigs produced LP? If not, remedy that, stat. They have a cool new single out called ‘Did You Hear?’ which has been dipped in sugar and is all kinds of wonderful. Enough yapping – press play already.

Everyone’s favourite ’90s crush, Evan Dando, is back as The Lemonheads with the first bit of properly new music in almost 20 years. He’s still being tuneful, slackerish, and a general bohemian dreamboat, of course. He’s teamed up with J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr as well as Lemonhead cohort Juliana Hatfield and it’ll all feel…

Born in Guinea, but now residing in lovely Margate, Falle Nioke is being the irrepressible multi-instrumental and fine-voiced artist with a new song out that is well worth your time and your ears for listening. Nioke has announced a debut LP which is called ‘Love From Under The Sea’, which you’ll be able to hear…

Daryl Hall’s transition into grumpy old dude continues apace. After airing his dirty underpants with the fallout of the dissolution of the Hall & Oates partnership – which he could have done quietly and left us to enjoy the tunes – he’s now turned his irritation toward the term ‘Yacht Rock’. Now, before we crack…

Now that the acid-casual parents have children old enough to be going out to clubs themselves, it’s fun to think about intergenerational happenings on the the dancefloors of the UK, with mum and son going halves on some pills. With that, there’s a new track out which will be a bridge between “I used to…

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…
