WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

The racketeering case concerning Young Thug has taken a new twist. The RICO trial is already the longest criminal trial seen in Georgia, clocking up 18 months, and it doesn’t look like letting up any time soon. However, it has been paused indefinitely thanks to an alleged misconduct by Fulton County Superior Judge Ural Glanville.…

Maybe it was surprising to see SZA headline Glastonbury, maybe it wasn’t. Fact is, there’s millions of people who adore her work and there’s no-one quite like her, and while some people may wonder why she headed the bill, festivals should be taking little risks like that instead of just booking sure-fire artists. Apparently, there…

They’re AM Radio friendly country music, that’s for sure – but Midland sure know how to rock a look. They’re all Nudie suits and big hats and in the slick country universe, they’re about as classic country rock as you can get. The trio have a new single out called ‘Lucky Sometimes’ and will feature…

When we launched THEPOPCORPS, we fully intended to make no money. That was 100% the business model. No sponsorships, no kind editorials in exchange for goods and services from PR companies and record labels. No free tickets. No free albums. You’re more likely to give an honest review when you’re using your own money and…

There’s something in the lizard bit of our brain that just loves a song that sounds like it should be played late and way too loud in a dive bar somewhere. These songs don’t need to reinvent the wheel – they need to be good, honest rock ‘n’ roll, whatever stripe of rock that is.…

Specifically, this version.

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…

DOES KELIS LOVE BILL MURRAY?
Not a thing we thought we’d be writing in a headline, but here we are. Fact is, the pair have been spotted out together a bunch, and obviously, men and women couldn’t possibly be platonic friends without bumping uglies in the mind of everyone, so what’s the craic? After posting some photos on Instagram featuring…

TURBO ISLAND HAVE DONE IT AGAIN
We’re still on holiday, but this tee was too good to not share. If you know Turbo Island, you’ll know that’s the place to get the best music t-shirts when it comes to wit, super fun graphic design, and letting your music nerd flag fly. Silly tees about Italo Disco, Todd Rundgren, Arthur Russell and…

PIP BLOM ARE COOL AND BACK TOO
Pip Blom are cool. We liked that album they did. It might have been the last one. They may have done one since then, we don’t know. It doesn’t matter too much because when you hear someone say that a band is cool, you should go and check them out. Stop pretending you’re too busy…
