WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE
-
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…

Allegra Krieger is new to us, so we won’t pretend we know loads about her and just crib notes from other websites like we do. All we know is that there’s a new single out called ‘Never Arriving’ and its a kind of country tinged indie rock that sounds pretty cool. There’s been releases before,…

REWIND WITH A NEW APP
If you’re very knowledgable about music and go on about it, there’s no telling you anything. For the rest of everyone, there’s a new app that you might like! You might not! We’re not your real dad. Anyway, an app. So, there’s a new app out that’s called Rewind and what it intends to do…

KATE BUSH, GEORGE MICHAEL, MISSY ELLIOT, ATCQ AND MORE NOMMED
There’s a lot of musicians and bands that haven’t been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and when you read the latest list of nominations, you’ll be like “THEY’RE NOT ALREADY IN THERE?!?!” This year, up for the award… and unbelievably not already in there, are Kate Bush, George Michael, Missy Elliott…

YVES TUMOR TOUR AND LP
Yves Tumor isn’t quite like anyone else around at the moment, but one thing we do know is that the music they’ve been making is undeniably sexy. Good too, mind you. Future glam mixed with Prince’s grimier moments, with a dollop of psychedelics thrown in. It’s fun stuff. Well, good news pop fans, there’s going…

VIC MENSA VS THUNDERCAT
Hey! Vic Mensa has teamed up with Thundercat and singer Maeta on a new track called ‘Strawberry Louis Vuitton’, which is good news isn’t it? We like them. Not so much Louis Vuitton, but that’s not through any moral stance – rather – we haven’t ever been able to afford it so it doesn’t mean…
