WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
The supergroup made up of Phoebe Bridgers, Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker are pretty famous these days. Famous enough that we really don’t need to tell you anything about them. Click below and have a listen to their new song called ‘Not Strong Enough’.
-
As people get older, many just give up. They’re just not as curious about music as they once where. They fall back into familiar albums and even with the advent of Spotify and music never being so simple to explore, they just bed down into the LPs of their youth like elderly rodents in hay.…
-
Everyone ought to know by now that Bob Stanley is one of the finest custodians of popular music, being a member of the mighty St Etienne, but also, writer of countless wonderful words about it and putting out so many dynamite compilations – he really has become a national treasure for music geeks, and we’re…
-
Festivals are pretty terrible things, but y’know, people enjoy them so it’s whatever. Kinda cool to watch live music on TV too, so we suppose it’s a net-plus. Anyway, the most lifestyley festival on the UK circuit is Glastonbury and they’ve confirmed some stuff and put a poster out. The main takeaway is that Guns…

David Bowie – a man with regrettably few decent haircuts in such a long and industrious career – is looking like returning from the dead, and starring in a new show that’s like the ABBA Voyage one. Is it virtual reality? It’s not a hologram. You know what we mean. Either way, you’ve got to…
-
Chaka Khan has taken the gloves off and thrown immense shade at Mariah Carey and Adele. Now, if you’re visiting from some awful stan account or the point of view of a MEGA FAN, then go away already. See, this is pop music. We’re hear to have fun. We’re hear to enjoy the cattiness. Someone…

They’re a Japanese psychedelic band and based in Montreal and they’re called TEKE:TEKE and if that isn’t one of the most flatly factual openings to an article, we don’t know what is. Anyway, not to say we aren’t excited by this new song by them called ‘Garakuta’ – a fried, fuzz wig-out and is delightfully…
-
Kara Jackson has been doing cool things and it’s hard to pin down exactly what that is in a catchy headline. She’s got a cinematic way with words and on a new track, a killer backdrop of Morricone/Ry Cooder dusty twang. It’s dead good. The new track (we’ll get to that in a minute) will feature…

Listen, we shouldn’t give Alex Jones and people like him the time of day. However, sometimes, it’s really funny to talk about them, so we will. And REM’s Mike Mills (who, incidentally, sang REM’s best song ‘Near Wild Heaven’) is on one. Alex Jones has been in a lot of legal bother recently with Info…

Drake – possibly pouting somewhere because when is he not slightly pursing his lips – is showing a little remorse for something. Very unlike him that. And ting. So what’s up with him now? Well, he’s said that he regrets mentioning the names of his exes in his music. Appearing on the premiere episode of…

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…
