The Kills have announced that they’re releasing a career-spanning B-sides/rarities collection at the end of the year. It’s called Little Bastards, named in part because of the nickname for the drum machine Allison Mosshart and Jamie Hince used during the first half of their career. “It was a Roland 880 which isn’t strictly a drum […]
Stream Lorne Malvo's Blistering Self-Titled Screamo EP
Lorne Malvo is the name of Billy Bob Thornton’s character in the first season of the Fargo TV show, a sociopathic killer who serves as the story’s big bad.

Lil Wayne – "NFL" (Feat. Gudda Gudda & Hoodybaby)
Lil Wayne is the sort of voracious sports fan for whom a song called “NFL” might come about organically. He goes hard for the Green Bay Packers and has been dropping references to athletes into his raps for years. One of my favorite lines on Da Drought 3 is a reference to former Philadelphia Eagles […]
TRAAMS – “Intercontinental Radio Waves”
Back in August, the UK indie rock trio TRAAMS returned from a five-year hiatus with a stark, propulsive, confident 10-minute banger of a single called “The Greyhound.” A song like that is a great way to announce to the world that you’re back in business. Today, TRAAMS have followed up on that announcement with another […]

Burning Ambulance Launches Label With New Jazz Comp Eyes Shut, Ears Open
Burning Ambulance, founded in 2010 by artist I.A. Freeman and journalist Philip Freeman — who also happens to be a Stereogum contributor and writes our monthly jazz column — started out as a small print on demand zine. Then it was a website. Then there was a podcast. And now, a decade later, it’s becoming […]
CHAI – “Donuts Mind If I Do”
The giddily fun Japanese experimental pop quartet CHAI have been dropping a steady stream of singles in recent months — “No More Cake,” “Ready Cheeky Pretty,” “Keep On Rocking,” the Hinds collab “United Girls Rock’n’roll Club.” Today, they’re announcing that they’ve signed to Sub Pop and sharing another new song. To celebrate their signing, CHAI […]
