In April, Wednesday will release the highly anticipated album Rat Saw God. We’ve already heard “Bull Believer,” “Chosen To Deserve,” and “Bath County.” Today, the Asheville collective has unveiled the final album single. It’s called “TV In The Gas Pump,” and it comes with a video directed by Lewis Dahm. “This is the first song […]
L.A. Exes – “Call Your Girlfriend” (Robyn Cover)
Two years ago, the Los Angeles singer-songwriter Jenny Owen Youngs launched a new band called L.A. Exes, and they released their debut album Get Some. Youngs has always been into down-the-middle pop music. Shortly before starting L.A. Exes, she covered Katy Perry and Blink-182. She also co-wrote Panic! At The Disco’s “High Hopes,” itself a […]
PACKS – “EC”
Back in January, the Toronto band PACKS announced a new album, Crispy Crunchy Nothing, and shared its lead single “4th Of July.” Since then, they’ve put out another song from it, “Brown Eyes,” and today they’re back with one more before the album is out in full next week. “EC” is a pinched tribute to […]
Worriers – “Never Quite Kicks In”
A couple months back, the Los Angeles-based musician Lauren Denitzio announced a new Worriers album, Warm Blanket, and we’ve gotten two singles from it — “Pollen In The Air” and “Prepared To Forget” from it so far. Warm Blanket is out the first week of April, and today Denitzio is sharing another song, the synthy […]
JPEGMAFIA x Danny Brown – “Scaring The Hoes”

Watch Hayley Williams Cover Deana Carter’s “Did I Shave My Legs For This?” At LGBTQ+ Benefit In Nashville
Recently, Tennessee passed a series of bills targeting the state’s LGBT population, restricting things like drag shows and transgender treatment and surgery for minors. Last night, many of the members of Tennessee’s music community responded by coming together for Love Rising, a fundraiser for LGBTQIA+ organizations. The show went down last night at Nashville’s Bridgestone […]
Cory Hanson – “Twins”
Cory Hanson, frontman of the Los Angeles psychedelic rock band Wand, has a new solo album coming out this summer. I’m sure Hanson gave a great deal of thought to the question of what he should call this new album, and he decided that the title should be Western Cum. Bold! We’ve already posted that […]
Shannon Lay – “From The Morning” (Nick Drake Cover)
Next month, the California singer-songwriter Shannon Lay will follow up her 2021 album Geist with the new LP Covers, Vol. 1. It’s exactly what it says on the package. On the album, Lay takes on songs from people like the Velvet Underground, Arthur Russell, Vashti Bunyan, and Ty Segall. We’ve already posted Lay’s version of […]
Stream EST Gee’s Bleak, Hypnotic New Album MAD
The Louisville rapper EST Gee is on a very serious run right now. Gee is signed to the Memphis rap giant CMG, and he fits into the whole Southern rap ecosystem, but his sound is darker and bleaker than most of the stuff his peers are making. He sounds like someone who’s been through some […]
Pig Lib Turns 20
Stephen Malkmus was throat-clearing. The Pavement frontman’s 2001 solo debut might as well have been a sixth LP from the band that made him an indie-rock legend; Pavement can even be found workshopping material from it in the Slow Century documentary. It’s a good album, but those quirky little guitar-pop songs were less like the […]
