WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

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

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,

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

Now that Daft Punk are a thing of the past, they’ve allowed some of their human side out with a look behind the scenes. A while ago, they shared some bits with Julian Casablancas that we can’t remember if we shared or not, and now, there’s more! They’re releasing a video series on YouTube called

Even though Ride referred to their 1994 LP ‘Carnival of Light’ as “Carnival of Shite”, and being a departure from their usual jangle of noise and shoegaze, many fans regard it a lesser work. The Pop Corporation disagrees, and disagrees hard. You see, back in ’94, Britpop was kicking in and a number of groups

Perhaps it’s testament to Outkast that any new genre-blurring rap group that emerges immediately makes us think of them. The latest group who are surely getting tickled with that brush are young hot-shots, Paris Texas. That’s nothing to do with the film of the same name, so calm down country boys. It appears that Paris

You’ll know Phil Hartman whether you know it or not. He was the voice of Simpsons character Troy McClure, Lionel Hutz, Duff Man and more. He was a pivotal member of the SNL cast, and featured in a number of movies and all that good stuff. Normally, any piece about Hartman soon moves into the

If you’re not following Mystery Discs on YouTube, you’re denying yourself one of the most brilliant and unusual record collections on the planet. With the tagline ‘obscure records are fun’, you’ll find high school bands and amateur outfits performing shaky, gorgeous heartfelt music, Steely Dan covers, big jazz, wonkiness and loads of magic treasure that

It’s poor form to liken a new artist to a legend straight off the bat, but there’s a wriggling, unescapable something about Ava Rocha that reminds us of Gal Costa. Gal, is of course, one of the most legendary artists to come out of Brazil and the Tropicalia movement, so no pressure Ava. However, while

NEW KALI UCHIS
In another life, we interviewed Kali Uchis before she was very famous, and honestly, she was incredibly pleasant and was especially mean about the girls from her school who liked Chris Brown. She was good value and then went off with her manager to Nando’s, where we worried that she might get a bad idea…

MUSICIANS THAT ARE SENDING PEOPLE TO SLEEP ZZZZZZ
We’re not sure it’s great news for a musician to be told that your work is sending people to sleep. Honestly, you’d rather here it’s caused raging impotence wouldn’t you? Unless you’re the Penguin Cafe Orchestra or something. Either way, this is the news that the likes of Billlie Eilish, BTS, and Khalid have woken…

SCIENCE, NOT YET GASLIT BY A MUSICIAN, SAYS BEING A MUSICIAN MAKES YOU MORE ATTRACTIVE
Science has vaguely been doing its thing again, crunching some numbers and then spewing out some kind of finding. These findings we’re talking about here are by no means definitive, but we’ll talk about them anyway, because it’s funny to so. Apparently, according to boffins, being a musician makes you more attractive to possible suitors.…

KELELA IS BACK, BEING GREAT
Whether you think of her music as experimental electronica, or future R&B, we can all agree that Kelela is fantastic. And she’s back with a new single called ‘Contact’. She’ll be releasing a new LP called ‘RAVEN’ which is bound to be fantastic on Feb 10th. New album ‘RAVEN’ is out on February 10th. And…
