WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
It seems that there’s a bit of a cottage industry around Drugdealer, where anyone related to them in any way is putting out sepia-toned ’70s pop, which is obviously a good thing. Are the returns a wholesale great thing? We dunno, but it’s always worth tuning in for honestly, given the strength of the second

There’s been a study undertaken that could show how humans first started getting into music as a species, and we were into it first. The study suggests that Madagascan lemurs used music for a variety of purposes, which could give insight in how humans evolved into creating music, but we prefer the early stuff. Co-author

Look, we don’t quite know what’s happening but we’ll share the news all the same. On Brian Wilson’s Instagram page, it basically says that coming this Friday, is ‘Ding Dang’. We had a little search on Google for ‘Brian Wilson Ding Dang’, and all it came up with was a link to his website which sadly

Allegra Krieger is new to us, so we won’t pretend we know loads about her and just crib notes from other websites like we do. All we know is that there’s a new single out called ‘Never Arriving’ and its a kind of country tinged indie rock that sounds pretty cool. There’s been releases before,

There’s going to be a final album from hyper-pop trailblazer SOPHIE, three years on from their untimely death. It’ll be an eponymous affair, and there’s a new song called ‘Reason Why’ which features Kim Petras and BC Kingdom. The album will be released on September 27th, and a statement from SOPHIE’s family reads: “When we,

There’s always a danger with Kehlani that her brand of R&B reads too much Tumblr. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but her seam of through-thought can occasionally focus a little heavily on who she’s making eyes at, identity and poor decision making in love and lust. It’s a common complaint of R&B at large,

We love the Coco & Clair Clair LP (we reviewed it here) for its hyper It Girl meanness and weird party vibe. Well, great news is that they’re back with a new single called ‘Aggy’ and they’re being all aloof and constantly online, but this time, the trap-lite beats have been replaced with a soft

One of the finest albums ever recorded is available after years of being hidden away in the shape of the effortlessly wonderful eponymous album from Peru’s, We All Together. Originally released in 1972, featuring some beautiful Wings covers and a load of killer original material, the LP is the greatest Beatle-inspired cuts ever recorded, with

Euphoric melancholy is one of the true pillars of pop, giving listeners the chance to dance the pain out of their feet and let all the air leave their body while they joyfully singalong with something that might be upsetting. ABBA were the masters of it, and pretty much the whole of soul music. It’s

The ’00s are pure back, so get out the Mcat and Breezers, because it’s time to ruin your fat laces in your trainers and wear too much eye-liner and dance to the new one where Jamie XX and Robyn have teamed up. And it’s a whole load of fun too, don’t you worry about that.

GOAT // NEW COSMIC PSYCH
Goat are Swedish, mysterious, and fucking amazing. A lot of modern psychedelic music focuses on one of two things – a) Hazy, pastoral music, b) Jam band fuzz wig-outs. Not Goat. They’re truly psychedelic in that they feel like they come from somewhere completely alien to the rest of us and dress the part while…

FLO MILLI NEW STUFF
Flo Milli – purveyor of very fun shit – has a new album due, and to celebrate that fact, there’s a new track for you to listen to. Two things – 1. It’s called ‘Fruit Loop’; 2. The video looks like a pre-recorded SNL bit. With Ice Spice shaking her ass in the deli, and…

THE LINDA LINDAS BRING THE NOISE
Remember we told you The Linda Lindas were bringing back fun punk? Well, they’re back again, but this time with something even heavier. And, mercifully, even more fun. When we say fun, we mean Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater fun. We want to load the second instalment of the game up with all the cheats loaded,…

FACE DOWN IS JERSEY BADNESS
Here we go! We’ve been needing hip hop to get a bit of a kick in the pants and this Jersey sound is just the thing to do it. With that, a new track that you need to get your lugs ’round. It’s by MCVERTT and features Sexxy Red and A$AP Ferg and called ‘Face…
