Last year, the English musician Amber Bain released Good At Falling, her debut full-length as the Japanese House, which was full of slick and dreamy pop songs that paid off the promise of Bain’s early EPs. Today, she’s returning to the format she started out with by releasing a new EP called Chewing Cotton Wool. […]
Blue Hawaii – "I Felt Love"
Raphaelle Standell-Preston certainly keeps busy. A couple months ago, she released an excellent new full-length with her band Braids, Shadow Offering, which was our Album Of The Week when it came out. At the beginning of the year, she put out two new songs as Blue Hawaii, her duo with Alex “Agor” Kerby, and those […]
Knot – "Horse Trotting, The Feet Not Touching The Ground"
Last month, the former members of Krill announced they were reforming (and expanding their lineup) as a new band called Knot. Their self-titled debut is out at the end of the month, and so far we’ve heard two tracks from it, “Foam” and “The World.” Today, the quartet returns with another, “Horse Trotting, The Feet […]
Drew Citron – "Summertime"
Drew Citron’s most recent project is Public Practice, the jittery Brooklyn band who put out their debut album a couple months back. The New York mainstay is also one-half of the indie pop band Beverly. Today, she’s announcing her debut solo album, Free Now, which was written following her breakup with ex-Beverly bandmate Scott Rosenthal. […]
Anjimile – "Baby No More"
Last month, the Boston-based musician Anjimile announced his debut album, Giver Taker, with the wonderful “Maker.” Today, we’re getting the album’s second single, “Baby No More,” a groovy track that builds and builds as Anjimile braces for a necessary break-up because of all his own problems. “Scary, what I done and might do/ Mary, you […]
Bruce Hornsby – “Anything Can Happen” (Feat. Leon Russell)
In a few days, Bruce Hornsby will release a new album called Non-Secure Connection. It’ll feature a whole lot of collaborators, mostly from younger generations. Justin Vernon and Brad Cook, two people who have done a lot of work with Hornsby in recent years, add production, though Hornsby did most of that himself. And we’ve […]
Bartees Strange – "Boomer"
Bartees Strange has been around for a couple years now, releasing genre-fluid and often not-quite-classifiable music. Earlier this year, he embarked on a unique project, releasing Say Goodbye To Pretty Boy, an EP featuring only covers of the National. (He followed it up with a couple more.) Maybe it was a good move, bringing more […]
Bully – “Prism”
The third Bully album, SUGAREGG, comes out next week. We’ve heard a handful of songs from it already — “Where To Start,” “Every Tradition,” and “Hours And Hours” — and today Alicia Bognanno is sharing one more before the whole thing is out in full. “Prism” is a delightfully fuzzy build-up, melodic and warm and […]
Cardi B Is On OnlyFans Now
“Man, we should sell that porn.” That was Cardi B, rapping on the Migos track “Motor Sport,” way back in 2017. Today, Cardi is once again a topic of a whole lot of conversation thanks to her extremely horny new single “WAP.” And so it only makes sense that Cardi has just started an account […]
Marie Davidson & L'Œil Nu – "Renegade Breakdown"
The Montreal musician Marie Davidson has been making dance music for the better part of a decade, most recently with 2018’s Working Class Woman, which was grounded by the stunning breakout single “Work It.” Today, she’s announcing a new full-length album called Renegade Breakdown, and it’s attributed to Marie Davidson & L’Œil Nu, the name […]
