WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • TSHA HAS SOME DANCEFLOOR DYNAMITE FOR YOU

    TSHA has a new song out called ‘Green’ and its ace! It’s a dancer, but it’s an emotional affair too – just what we like to see! There’s nothing quite like an emotional banger, right? She says: “Me and my partner were in the studio together, about to write something. He was getting on my nerves,

  • SOCCER MOMMY IS BACK, KIDS

    A little while ago, there was a spate of records and acts that were kinda miserable, but anthemic with it. It wasn’t exactly Grunge 2.0, but emotional lyrics and crunchy guitars were definitely back. One of the better artists from this period was Soccer Mommy, who as it happens, is back with a new song!

  • NEW MUSIC FROM MEN I TRUST

    Men I Trust – it’s been a while. The last thing they put out was back in 2021 when they released their ‘Untourable Album’, which went down very well with everyone. Of course, there’s been dribs and drabs, and last year they put out the ace ‘Ring of Past’, but now, they’re back with a

  • PSYCHY ELECTRONICS FROM THE GREEN CHILD

    The Green Child are an Aussie group that went from two members to four (apologies for the old picture, then) and they have a really cool new single out called ‘Wow Factor’ which reminds us of loads of good stuff made by loads of other cool and unique bands. Seriously, we’re into it! There’s a

  • YOU’RE NOT ELECTED CHARLIE BROWN

    Vince Guaraldi’s work with the soundtrack on the Peanuts cartoons is rightly the stuff of legend. Achingly cool and whistleable jazz, bopping away under the utterly charming and razor sharp voice work from the Shultz created characters, which obviously include Snoopy and the mighty Charlie Brown. Re-discovered in the vaults is the somewhat timely ‘You’re

  • MORE COOL TWANG FROM ALLEGRA KREIGER

    Allegra Krieger has a new album out called ‘Art of the Unseen Infinity Machine’, and you’ll be able to hear that tomorrow in fact! Below is the final single that preempts it, and it’s really cool. We really liked another single she released in the build-up to this – here – which was a neat

  • 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

  • WE’RE STILL MENTIONING MUSICIANS’ WEIGHT IN 2023

    People are idiots and say idiotic things all the time. There’s nothing necessarily wrong with being an idiot, but tropes get tired fast and it’s exhausting listening to people think they’re saying something for the first time. Add to that, something so wildly off the mark and pointless, it just makes you want to windmill…

  • UNEARTHED STEELY DAN GAUCHO SESSION TRACK SEES THE LIGHT

    It’s not often you get new Steely Dan material to listen to, even moreso now that only Donald Fagen remains since Walter Becker shrugged off his mortal coil. However, there’s a new Steely Dan song to listen to! With The Dan were recording the hipsters’ favourite LP – ‘Gaucho’ – they recorded a track that…

  • GIRL RAY HAVE DONE IT AGAIN

    Girl Ray, later this year, will release an album that absolutely deserves to be topping all kinds of charts and finishing toward the top of critic lists. We know this because the singles that have been released from it so far have all been unequivocally brilliant. They deserve all the success, truly. And they’ve just…

  • ARCTIC MONKEYS: SENDING UP THE THING YOU LOVE; OR THE CASE OF THE FALLING MASKS

    “The Monkeys we loved are gone” wrote someone about the Arctic Monkeys headlining set at Glastonbury. “They used to be good” wrote another. Critics and fans alike had certain demands and preconceived notions, and it turns out that the Arctic Monkeys may have outmanoeuvred or outgrown fair weather music fans. Or do they just suck…
