Louise Post of Veruca Salt is prepping a new solo album for release in 2023, but first she’s revealing some much older recordings. After teasing its release last week on Instagram Live, Post has unveiled a six-song collection from her archives titled But I Love You Without Mascara (Demos ’97-’98). As per the title, the […]
Sonagi – “Attachment Theory”
Next month, Sonagi — the Philadelphia band led by Closer’s Ryann Slauson — will release their debut album Precedent. They shared “Ambivalence” from it already, and today they’re putting out another single, “Attachment Theory,” which is queasy and intense and whose central refrain of “report to the mess” is lifted from the film Alien. “The […]
PinkPantheress & GoldLink Remix Drake’s “Massive”
A couple of weeks ago, Drake released his surprise album Honestly, Nevermind, an unexpected dive into house and club music sounds. In the immediate wake of that album’s release, a lot of people wondered what had inspired this stylistic left turn. I saw some people bringing up the name of PinkPantheress, the young British artist […]
PHONY – “Kaleidoscope” (Feat. Petey)
Next month, Neil Berthier is releasing a new album as PHONY, AT SOME POINT YOU STOP. The former Donovan Wolfington leader and current Joyce Manor touring guitarist shared “Summer’s Cold” from it a few weeks ago, and today he’s back with “KALEIDOSCOPE,” an ominous ballad that’s also a collaboration with TikTok star Petey. “This song […]
The Big Pink – “Love Spins On Its Axis”
In the late ’00s and early ’10s, British duo the Big Pink released two albums of blown-out, synth-heavy shoegaze, and then they more or less disappeared completely, returning only for the 2015 single “Hightimes” and the 2016 EP Empire Underground. Earlier this year, the Big Pink — now made up of founding member Robbie Furze, […]
Steve Lacy – “Bad Habit”
Back when he was still a teenager, the psychedelic soul prodigy Steve Lacy was playing in the Internet and collaborating with Kendrick Lamar. A couple of weeks ago, Lacy released his new single “Mercury,” his first new solo music in three years. As it turns out, that was the first taste of a new album. […]
Momma – “Motorbike”
Both members of the Brooklyn alt-rock duo just graduated college, and they’re now getting ready to release their new LP Household Name on Friday. Thus far, Momma have already shared a bunch of the songs that’ll appear on the LP: “Medicine,” “Rockstar,” “Speeding 72,” “Lucky.” Now, with the album release looming, they’ve hit us with […]
Men I Trust – “Hard To Let Go”
Less than a year ago, the woozy Montreal trio Men I Trust released Untourable Album, an LP that they recorded under lockdown, figuring that they’d never get to play the songs live. Since then, Men I Trust have done plenty of touring, which is one rare sign that at least some things are going right […]
Broken Bells – “We’re Not In Orbit Yet…”
Broken Bells, the duo of Danger Mouse and the Shins’ James Mercer, has been intermittently active in the years since 2014’s After The Disco, releasing one-off songs including “It’s That Talk Again,” “Shelter,” and “Good Luck.” But that last one emerged way back in September 2019, and since then both artists have been busy with […]
Snail Mail – “Feeling Like I Do” (Superdrag Cover)
Snail Mail has released a cover of Superdrag’s “Feeling Like I Do,” off the band’s 2002 album Last Call For Vitriol. Lindsey Jordan has been performing the track live for the past few months while on tour in support of her sophomore album Valentine — that tour kicked off earlier this year after being delayed […]
