The R&B singer Zacari has been a longtime staple of TDE Records, and he’s just released a new collaboration with another TDE standby. Isaiah Rashad has been having an eventful year; back in April, he opened his Coachella set by acknowledging his sex-tape leak for the first time. Rashad’s appearance on Zacari’s new single “Bliss” […]
Gulch – “Monkey Gone To Heaven” (Pixies Cover)
Santa Cruz hardcore destroyers Gulch had a run of a couple of years when they were probably the most exciting band in the genre, and now they’re quitting while they’re ahead. Right now, Gulch are in the midst of playing their final run of shows, which will include a stop at LA’s Sound & Fury […]
The Mars Volta – “Blacklight Shine”
Last year, the long-dormant Mars Volta seemed to be up to something. Socials teased something new, which turned out to be the career-spanning boxset La Realidad De Los Sueños. That was a limited release, but we also got a stream of unreleased material from their 2003 debut De-Loused In The Comatorium. After all that, things […]
Secret Machines – “Day 21” & “Dreaming Of Dreaming (Mavrogeorgis And Sclavunos Version)”

Last month, Stella Donnelly announced her sophomore album Flood. So far we’ve heard lead single “Lungs,” and today she’s back with the title track. “This song feels like a sad little adventure,” Donnelly said in a statement. “I wrote it in the dark depths of a Melbourne winter lockdown where it had been raining for […]

Weezer are spending 2022 rolling out a four-part EP project called SZNZ. Each EP is tied to one of the seasons, and each one is set to drop on the corresponding solstice. So far we’ve received Spring, and Summer has now arrived on the occasion of the summer solstice. But Weezer have also returned with […]
Beyoncé – “Break My Soul”
Last week, we found out that Beyoncé would be releasing her first new solo album in six years, Renaissance, at the end of July. Compared to the rollouts for her self-titled and Lemonade, it seems that she is taking a more traditional route to introducing the album so far, and that includes a lead single. […]
Spielbergs – “Every Living Creature”
Back in March, Norwegian Band To Watch Spielbergs circled back with “Brother Of Mine,” their first new song since 2020. That and the 2020 single “Go!” ended up being previews of a new album, Vestli, out in August. Last month, we heard two more tracks from the album: “When They Come For Me” and “Get […]
Tony Molina – “I Don’t Like That He”
Tony Molina, the Bay Area musician who has mastered the art of cranking out bite-size power-pop nuggets, has a new album called In The Fade coming out later this summer. The whole LP lasts 18 minutes, which is exactly how long a Tony Molina LP should last. We’ve already posted first single “The Last Time,” […]
