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!…

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…

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 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…

The room was dark, the atmosphere heavy with disappointment and defeat. The band had played their hearts out, but something had gone wrong. Their once-promising career had come to a screeching halt, and now they were left with nothing but shattered dreams and broken spirits. The lead singer sat slumped in a chair, his head…

Roger Daltrey has been asked if The Who are making music for a new LP. He’s said “what’s the point?” and, honestly, where’s the lie? There’s not many fizzing with excitement at the prospect of a new album from Daltrey and Townshend, is there? No harm like. He said: “What’s the point? What’s the point…

Take four of the Super Furry Animals and you get Das Koolies – a psychedelic techno adventure that shows the gang are still brimming with ideas even when the main project is resting. It’s pulsating and political and ultimately, it’s a load of fun. Whenever the SFA lads are involved in something, it’s always worth…

Huey Lewis is genuinely a cool guy. He’s like the ’80s John Sebastian or something. Great songs, approachable, the people’s champ! Well, his band features heavily in the lore of American Psycho, and even though the movie was released in 2000, he’s still not seen it. Neither have we. We’ve seen a lot of memes…
