WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Haim have a new song out and, honestly, it sounds just like a Haim track. We mean that in the nicest possible way, as it’s filled with fun, harmonies and groovy business. It’s the group’s first new music since 2023, and it is called ‘Relationships’ and honestly, they’re famous enough that they don’t need our

Anyone who has heard ‘Dreaming With Alice’ will no doubt have lost their damn minds thinking about how incredible ‘Mandolin Man’ is – one of the greatest acid-folk tracks of a generation, and seemingly one of those songs recorded by someone who didn’t get a fair crack, and lost to the midsts of time. Well,

We wrote about the new Spinal Tap movie a while ago, and we could link to that piece to prove it, but you wouldn’t click it, so what’s the point? We’ll recap here either way. The good news is, is that a teaser has been released for you to watch! It’s called Spinal Tap II:

When music and video games collide, it really is a wonderful thing – and there’s not many games that straddled both worlds quite like the Tony Hawk series of games did. Like skateboarding itself, it’s not just about the activity itself – it is equally about the lifestyle that envelopes it. Sports games tend to
-
Every time country music goes worldwide, lurking in the sidelines, is someone making a more record-collector version of country, and they get all the scruffy boys and girls all giddy! This time around, it is MJ Lenderman who is carrying the torch of Silver Jews-esque slacker country, and it’s great. Good news for people in Europe,

It is always nice to have a bit of hip hop which feels like it was made for the summer. Laid back, witty, vibey affairs to bop along to while you’re going about your business. Thanks to Samara Cyn, we’ve got some of that going on, just in time for some nicer Spring weather. The

We don’t know a huge amount about Joy Oladokun, but we know we like this song when we heard it! It’s a great little chugger – Balearic beat, you might say. You might not. It’s a fine vibe though, and we can see it popping off while you’re having a dance in your living room
-
Here, we have a new band called Set Dressing, and that is a side project of sorts from Mandy Indiana, if you’re into them. All of this is moot really, as we can like a song for itself rather than some hook to something else. It is a fine slice of synthpop that bubbles along
-
If you like fuzzily produced, beautiful music that will allow you to stop missing the likes of Elliott Smith for 5 minutes, then there’s plenty of great singer-songwriters out there with similar DIY sensibilities to get stuck into. Paco Cathcart is one such guy, and there’s new music to listen to, namely with single ‘Bottleneck

In need of something to watch while you wait for the kettle to boil? We’ve got just the thing for you.

LATTO, MEGAN THEE STALLION, FLO MILLI
Latto’s ‘Sunday Service’ is now an all-star affair now there’s a redo with the million selling Megan Thee Stallion and the mighty Flo Milli. As you’re expect, it’s a huge club ready clunky beat and firebrand cockiness on the mic from all three. An uber charismatic affair as you can imagine. It’s not a game-changer…

THIRD ELECTRIC PENDERGRASS LP DROPS
The third Electric Pendergrass album has dropped, with more vaporwave-ish synth wibbles and obscure mining of soft breaks and bits. This new one, available to download for free (or at any price you fancy throwing into the hat if you’re feeling generous), is only available from Bandcamp, so if you’re waiting for Spotify, don’t hold…

NEW DE LA SOUL DOCUMENTARY
De La Soul have had their fair share of troubles when it comes to the songs they’ve sampled, who owns their back catalogue and all that murky stuff. It seems that there’s some wiggle room at long last, and now they’re able to enjoy their body of work that they’ve created. With that, there’s a…

NEW CARIBOU 4 U
We’re generally not that fussed about Caribou, but you might like them and Dan Snaith seems like a nice fella, so here’s the news of a new single for you to listen to. It’s a sprightly affair and goes by the name of ‘Broke My Heart’. We’ve just looked into it and it seems there…
