Fontaines D.C. are about a month out from releasing their sophomore album, A Hero’s Death. The Dublin band have shared two singles from it so far — the title track and “I Don’t Belong” (plus covered The Jesus And Mary Chain in between that) — and today they’re back with the album’s third single, “Televised […]

This Is The Kit’s Kate Stables has announced a new album today, Off Off On, the follow-up to her 2017 record Moonshine Freeze.

As with his previous albums, […]
Madeline Kenny – "Double Hearted"
Last month, Madeline Kenney announced her third album, Sucker’s Lunch. Once more, she teamed with Wye Oak’s Jenn Wasner to co-produce, though this time Wye Oak drummer Andy Stack also played on the album.

Today, we’re getting […]
A Certain Ration – "Always In Love"
It’s been a long time since the English post-punk veterans A Certain Ratio have released an album. In recent years, they’ve released a few things surrounding career-spanning retrospectives.

Beverly Glenn-Copeland – "River Dreams"
Over the last few years, Beverly Glenn-Copeland has re-emerged as a pioneering musician, a figure ahead of his time. Starting with the reissue of his 1986 album Keyboard Fantasies in 2017, the trans Canadian-American artist has become a beloved cult figure for his spectral and comforting compositions, many of which have been re-released in the […]
Courtney Marie Andrews – “How You Get Hurt”
Next month, the tremendously gifted country-folk singer and songwriter Courtney Marie Andrews will follow up her shattering 2018 album May Your Kindness Remain with a new LP called Old Flowers. The new album, originally slated for release in early June, only features three musicians — Andrews herself, Twain’s Matthew Davidson, and Big Thief’s James Krivchenia. […]
