WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
Kanye West is game for dunking on at every opportunity, which in part is richly deserved, but also really depressing. The man needs to be accountable for the things he says and does, but jesus, it’s rotten watching someone be so very ill in public. With that, along comes cringebag no.1, Drake. He shared a

The latest FREE RANGE show is up and this one is a little chaotic with loads of killer music on it from all over the world. This one has a guest presenter on it which is real fun. You can listen to it below and the tracklist is a little bit below that. FREE RANGE
-
Cosmic country pop? Like Gram Parsons but with a will to actually sell some records? Big claim that, but fuck it, let’s go with it. We’re talking about Jenny Lewis, who is a bit of a legend in certain circles, and who has a most excellent wardrobe (stop pretending that this isn’t a thing that
-
It’s funny that ageing rockers bemoan the thin-skins of the yoof, while acting like petulant babies all the time, throwing their toys out of the pram and indulging in very ugly, public, hilarious spats. Just look at Pink Floyd. A very dignified set of old men there. With that, we turn our attentions to KISS.
-
Keanu Reeves is everyone’s non-problematic fave and generally seems like a good dude. Great face too, if we’re still objectifying people in 2023. You can imagine he’s got a half decent and very sizeable record collection, right? His house is probably dead nice. And we’re only mentioning Wyld Stallyns now to say that we won’t

We’re not bothering with anything like here, don’t worry. Everything you read today is just a normal story. However, that said, now we’ve drawn attention to it you might think we’ve completely made up our imminent Keanu Reeves piece up, when we haven’t. He’s just that nice.

She’s a DJ, she’s a producer – Jayda G is bring good and hypnotic vibes to make your feet move around wildly and, luckily enough, there’s a new tune out called ‘Blue Lights’ which is really good. There’s a new LP due too, called ‘Guy’, and that’ll be on Ninja Tune, which is a name

It’s difficult trying to avoid being cancelled when someone keeps getting their breasts out and we, responsible music critics must pretend we haven’t seen the aforementioned breasts. Even if we have noticed the breasts, then we must underline how people should be able to free their breasts for whatever reason they like, because the people

If you’ve not heard of Immaterial Possession, they’re an odd bunch. That’s a good thing, before you start any of that nonsense. They’ve got a new tune out called ‘Mercy of the Crane Folk’. What’s that about you ask? Well, it’s a song that is apparently a tale about a needy ghost that never gets

03 Greedo has served 5 years in prison and is out on parole and, out of the gate, he’s not messing around. He’s got a new track out called ‘Buss Me A Script’ which features Maxo Kream and it is haaaaaaaarrrrrrrd. There’s a new LP in offing too (might be a mixtape, might not be

SIOUXSIE SIOUX IS BACK. WANNA SEE?
Siouxsie Sioux does seem cooler than all the other UK punk survivors put together, doesn’t she? Then again, the goths have put a claim in for her as theirs too, but whatever. After a hiatus away from the stage, she’s back and we’re stealing someone’s footage to show you, in case you want to see…

CLAIRE ROUSAY + HELENA DELAND AMBIENT FOLK NICENESS
Here’s a new song called ‘Deceiver’ by Claire Rousay and Helena Deland. It’s released on Mexican Summer who, largely speaking, are a record label you can trust. It’s always worth listening to something if it’s released on Mexican Summer. They’ve put out music by Weyes Blood, Cate Le Bon, Best Coast, Kurt Vile, Connan Mockasin,…

ALOGTE OHO & HIS SOUNDS OF JOY
What a great thing to have a band name like Alogte Oho & His Sounds of Joy. Who are they? They’re about to make your day a whole lot better. They’re a group from Ghana who make uplifting, brassy Afrobeat and it does exactly what it says on the tin – it’s filled with joy.…

LINDA LEWIS + IT’S IN HIS KISS
One of the UK’s finest soul singers, lovely Linda Lewis, has sadly died. To many, this may be a new name so let us fill you in as tribute and introduce you to some wonderful music in the meantime. Lewis got a break performing with John Lee Hooker, and was courted by Bowie, Rod Stewart,…
