WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • NEW MUSIC FROM MEN I TRUST

    Men I Trust – it’s been a while. The last thing they put out was back in 2021 when they released their ‘Untourable Album’, which went down very well with everyone. Of course, there’s been dribs and drabs, and last year they put out the ace ‘Ring of Past’, but now, they’re back with a…

  • PSYCHY ELECTRONICS FROM THE GREEN CHILD

    The Green Child are an Aussie group that went from two members to four (apologies for the old picture, then) and they have a really cool new single out called ‘Wow Factor’ which reminds us of loads of good stuff made by loads of other cool and unique bands. Seriously, we’re into it! There’s a…

  • YOU’RE NOT ELECTED CHARLIE BROWN

    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…

  • MORE COOL TWANG FROM ALLEGRA KREIGER

    Allegra Krieger has a new album out called ‘Art of the Unseen Infinity Machine’, and you’ll be able to hear that tomorrow in fact! Below is the final single that preempts it, and it’s really cool. We really liked another single she released in the build-up to this – here – which was a neat…

  • IS THIS REALLY THE SWIFTIES VS TECH BROS VOTE IN THE USA?

    The presidential race in the USA has a lot hanging on it, for sure, but regardless of that, the whole thing has made for some really good TV. It always does, because one thing the Americans love, is making great television. A thick line has been drawn and either side of it stand two candidates…

  • WAVY RAP FROM BABYFACE RAY

    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: SCARY FANS

    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…

  • INDIE FUZZ FROM GIRL SCOUT

    If you’re in the market for some seriously fun indie fuzz pop, then you will like the new song from Swedish group Girl Scout, who just so happen to have told everyone that they’ve got a new EP coming out. The EP is called ‘Headache’ and it’ll be out in November (where did the year…

  • ARE STANS THE FOOTBALL HOOLIGANS OF POP?

    Once upon a time in the days of black and white and the British pound being split up into unfathomable fractions, fans of football teams would clap and twirl their rattles, cheering on their favourite football team and having a pint or six, with a hard luck to or from the opposing fanbase. Something changed…

  • KENDRICK SUPER BOWL 2025

    Kendrick is doing the Super Bowl in February 2025. Now, two things – does this basically confirm a new album is going to be released before the year is out? And also, are we going to hear an entire stadium shouting “A MINNNNOOOOOOR” at Drake on the biggest televised event in the world during that…

STOP HOARDING TUNES


  • CORNELIUS WITH A NEW TUNE!

    Keigo Oyamada is better known as Cornelius, and he’s one of the most inventive musicians on the planet, and has been for ages. The last thing we wrote about was an absolute gem, and you can hear it here. He’s back with a new tune, to mark the signing to label Eat Your Own Ears…

  • NIA ARCHIVES NEW MUSIC AND POTENTIAL WORLD DOMINATION

    Nia Archives looks like someone who is set to take over the world, having all the ingredients for a full-on, proper star. Like, she’s grabbed drum ‘n’ bass by the lapels and shook it up the most since the day of, say, Roni Size and Goldie – ready to be a face for the genre. Well,…

  • REVIEW / NOAH KAHAN / THE GREAT DIVIDE

    It always feels like it’s Autumn in Noah Kahan’s heart, which is no bad thing if you’re making the kind of music that sensitive souls feel nourished and supported by. And now, after becoming a gigantic star, he’s arrived at an album where he’s surely been asking some questions of himself. See, Kahan is a…

  • PREDICTING WHAT THE CHARLI XCX ROCK LP WILL SOUND LIKE

    Charli XCX is making a rock album. She’s been pretty funny about her post-Brat moves, saying that she’s okay with it being a flop etc. In a Vogue interview – always good for a quote – she declared that “the dance floor is dead”, which of course it isn’t, but toward guitars she goes and…
