WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

Swedish pair GHLOW have announced a new album which will be called ‘Levitate’ and out in March. That’s all well and good, but can we listen to something first? Course we can! That’s precisely why we’ve done this piece. The new song is called ‘Big City’ and it’s a bit of a face-melter. Super fuzz,

Say what you want about the insanity of stan-level fans, but occasionally, they do something you can’t help but applaud. When super fanatics aren’t doxxing or cancelling people over a decade old cock-up, they can unify and actually try for something quite noble. This time, it’s Taylor Swift’s Swifties, who are basically taking Ticketmaster to

We reviewed Andre 3000’s new album, and while it was a ambient flute workout, we couldn’t help thinking about Outkast. It’s kinda unfair of us, but they’re hip hop’s greatest of all time (and we’ll fight you about that, if you like) and we always want to see the greatest in action. So with that,

When The Beatles released Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, they probably knew they were onto something good, but the cultural impact it had invariably superceded expectations. Of course, the UK’s psychedelic set relied heavily on pirate radio stations, and one such broadcaster was the Big L – Radio London – transmitted from an old

Listen, we understand if you completely sidestep reading this and hurriedly press play on the video below. We get it. However, if you want some dramatic tension building, then this clip is a mind-blower. Your two favourite Mormons, singing “your everlasting summer and you can see it fading fast, so you grab a piece of

Fans of the heavier end of psychedelic rock, we have some good news for you! Swedish heavy-hitters Les Big Byrd have a new song out and they’ve set their controls to melt your brain. They have a new LP coming out called ‘Diamonds, Rhinestones and Hard Rain’ which will appear in March ’24. The first

Both Young Thug and Donald Trump are up against the Georgia legal system, on a RICO trial, and both camps will be watching each other closely. This leaves people in a unique bind, where the innocence of one may directly influence the innocence of the other. See, broadly speaking, they’re being accused of the same

Having watched the Kanye and Ty Dolla listening party, there were a number of moments worth talking about. And not for the first time, we have an element of separating the art from the artist, because as much of a piece of shit Ye has been lately, regrettably, he can still make a great tune.

Given that 70% of the world uses Android, Apple are a strange phenomena given that, being the primary operating service in the States, it has a particularly loud voice in the marketing world. Of course, Apple fans are so sewn into the iOS mainframe that they can’t conceive of a world outside itself (which is

Not technically a mix, but some bright spark has uploaded an old tape that would have had an old department store ringing out with festive cheers. And it’s surprisingly groovy in places, if you’re looking for something to stick on while you wrap the presents and drink 4 bottles of Baileys. Or, if work doesn’t

LAST BEATLE SONG CONFIRMED
It’s confirmed. The last Beatle music approaches and, as we thought, it’s ‘Now And Then’. You can see what we said about it here, if you want the back story. The track will be with us on 2nd November and the official blurb from the Beatles camp says: “Now And Then” is the last Beatles…

KURT VILE, GO ON THEN
Kurt Vile. A new song? A tour? Go on then. Vile, y’see, has a new EP coming out called ‘Back To Moon Beach’ and the tour is in the States, and seeing as our analytics say that most of our readers are European, that’s not the good news – but new music! Hurray! Below, if…

NEW BANGER FROM DJ SABRINA THE TEENAGE DJ
DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ continues to melt our brains with music that’s somehow both nostalgic pop AND futuristic psychedelic house music, and we love it. A new video just dropped for the track ‘For Now And Forever’ which is taken from the Destiny album and follows a fairly consistent and very funny long trolling…

BEATLES NEW SONG / WHAT DO WE KNOW?
The Beatles have casually dropped a tweet that’s got everyone’s knickers in a twist. It’s a link to their website where there’s a graphic of a cassette. There’s already some clues to be worked out too, for the eagled eyed. First, let’s look at the cassette. You can zoom in a bit harder when you’re…
