Wynonna Judd is releasing a covers EP next month, featuring her take on songs by Slim Harpo, Nina Simone, Fats Domino, and the Grateful Dead.

Andy Bell – "I Was Alone"
Next month, Andy Bell is releasing his debut solo album, The View From Halfway Down — named after an incredible Bojack Horseman episode — and we really liked its lead single “Love Comes In Waves,” naming it one of the best songs of the week. Today, the Ride member is sharing the album’s second single, […]

So far, we’ve heard two advance singles, “Surrender” and “Close My Eyes.” Today, he’s back with one more preview before the album arrives. Butler’s latest is called “Bethlehem.” Here’s what he had to say about the inspiration behind the track: This song partly springs from […]
Angel Olsen & Emile Mosseri – "Mr. Lonely" (Bobby Vinton Cover)
Way back in December 1964, at the peak of Beatlemania, throwback crooner Bobby Vinton scored his third and final #1 hit with the decidedly not-rocking ballad “Mr. Lonely.” This past summer we got a preview of old soul Angel Olsen’s cover of the song in the trailer for Miranda July’s new movie Kajillionaire, and now […]

Thom Yorke Remixes "Isolation Theme," From Clark's Score For Horror Movie 'Daniel Isn't Real': Listen
Thom Yorke loves himself some experimental dance music. Last year, Yorke released an EP full of remixes of “Not The News,” one of the tracks from his ANIMA album.

Jordana – "Divine"
It’s been a busy, productive year for the young songwriter Jordana Nye. Back in March, she re-released her 2019 debut, Classical Notions Of Happiness; the expanded edition included songs like “Crunch” and “Sway” that signaled a big ’90s-indebted step away from the bedroom pop aesthetic Jordana had previously been favoring. She quickly followed through on […]
No Thank You – "Enough"
No Thank You, the Philadelphia rock band led by Kaytee Della Monica, have released two albums so far — 2017’s Jump Ship and 2018’s All It Takes To Ruin It All — and today they’re announcing a third, Embroidered Foliage. With each album, their sound has gotten progressively darker, and lead single “Enough” is a […]
Mourn – “Men”
Barcelona post-punk band Mourn recently announced their new album Self Worth. They sounded newly invigorated on early singles “Call You Back” and “This Feeling Is Disgusting,” and the streak continues today with the release of new song “Men.” It’s an immediate and righteously pissed-off middle finger to toxic masculinity, patriarchal society, and yep, you guessed […]
