Nap Eyes – "Snake Oil" & "Child's Romance"
The perennially satisfying Halifax indie band Nap Eyes released their excellent album Snapshot Of A Beginner back in March. Today they’re back with two B-sides from those sessions, the drowsy but infectious “Snake Oil” and the remarkably poppy and upbeat guitar banger “Child’s Romance.” Here’s singer Nigel Chapman on the former: “Snake oil” is a […]
Shamir – “Running”
Shamir has said that his upcoming self-titled album, his second release of the year following March’s Cataclysm, will be his most “commercial-sounding” work since his 2015 club-pop breakthrough Ratchet. Early tracks “On My Own” and “I Wonder,” have borne out that claim, imbuing Shamir’s DIY rock songs with a poppy new sense of propulsion and […]
Real Estate – “Plastic Bird” (Galaxie 500 Cover)
For the past few weeks, the Guided By Voices/Yoko Ono manager David Newgarden has been presenting a whole series of Galaxie 500 covers from the band’s peers and admirers, all leading up to the Record Store Day vinyl reissue of Galaxie 500’s live album Copenhagen.

Doves – “Cathedrals Of The Mind”
Reunited post-Britpop trio Doves are about to return with The Universal Want, their first album in 11 years.

[…]
Blue Hawaii – "Feelin'"
Earlier this month, Blue Hawaii — the dancey team-up between Braids’ Raphaelle Standell-Preston and Alex Kerby — announced a new EP/mixtape thing called Under 1 House, their follow-up to last year’s full-length Open Reduction Internal Fixation. They led off with the twitchy bop “I Felt Love” and today they’re back with another track from it, […]

Mourn – "This Feeling Is Disgusting"
A few months back, the Barcelona band Mourn — now a trio following the departure of their drummer last year — put out a sharp new single, “Call You Back.” That was just a precursor to a whole album called Self Worth, which is being announced today alongside another new song, “This Feeling Is Disgusting.” […]
Porter Robinson – "Mirror"
Back in the spring, Porter Robinson began rolling out Nurture, his first album under his own name since dropping the spellbinding debut Worlds in 2014. The producer and singer-songwriter shared “Get Your Wish” and “Something Comforting,” a pair of electronic pop songs that played like uptempo ballads, wistful and weary but beaming with an optimistic […]
