Back in June, the Houston-based, ’90s-indebted scuzz-rock masters Narrow Head announced their sophomore album, 12th House Rock. So far we’ve heard “Night Tryst” and “Stuttering Stanley.” Now, with the album’s arrival coming up at the end of the month, the band has shared another one. The latest preview of 12th House Rock is called “Hard […]
Gojira – “Another World”
The French band Gojira are one of this century’s most important underground metal institutions. The band figured out a way to weld the grimy, mathy complications of technical death metal to the grand, mathy complications of prog-rock, and they quickly became the kind of band that other bands mythologize. Gojira don’t record too often these […]
Troye Sivan – "Rager teenager!"
Troye Sivan is a couple weeks out from the release of his new IN A DREAM EP. His recent singles “Take Yourself Home” and “Easy” are both on it, and today the Australian pop singer is releasing a third song from it called “Rager teenager!” It starts off slow and wordy, Sivan smoothly reflecting on […]
Machinedrum – "Kane Train" (Feat. Freddie Gibbs) & "Ur2yung"
Circa now, there are few better ways to generate excitement for your new album than getting Freddie Gibbs on the lead single. Gibbs, always talented and prolific, has been on a particularly satisfying tear lately, turning out stunning album-length team-ups with Madlib and the Alchemist within the span of a year. He’s now linked up […]
Widowspeak – "Even True Love"
Back in June, the reliably pretty and hazy folk-rock group Widowspeak announced their latest album, Plum. So far we’ve heard several songs from it, including “Breadwinner,” “Money,” and its title track. Today, with the album’s late August release quickly approaching, the band has shared another preview. The latest glimpse of Plum is called “Even True […]

New Order to Release 'Power, Corruption & Lies' Box Set With Previously Unreleased Songs
New Order were supposed to hit the road with fellow alternative dance-pop pioneers Pet Shop Boys this year. We know how that turned out. Instead, we’re getting something else from the band: a box set of perhaps their greatest album: Power, Corruption & Lies. Titled Power, Corruption & Lies: Definitive Edition, the collection will include the first […]
Bully – "Hours And Hours"
Bully’s new album SUGAREGG is such a rush, but Alicia Bognanno does slow things down here and there. “Hours And Hours,” the album’s third single following “Where To Start” and “Every Tradition,” is one of those instances. Over slow-creeping Pixies-esque bass and shakers, Bognanno reflects on her relationship with her mother, occasionally exploding into big […]
Trent Reznor and Tobacco Join Forces on New Track
Trent Reznor and electronic artist Tobacco have joined forces on a new chopped up, noisy track, “Babysitter.” “’Babysitter’ is like one of those experiments I need to do every once in a while, to see how far I can push it within the constructs of writing a song, without just making noise,” Tobacco, also known […]
Tim Heidecker – “Fear Of Death” (Feat. Weyes Blood)
Actor and comedian Tim Heidecker, of Tim & Eric fame, has been moonlighting as a ’70s-inspired singer-songwriter for a while now. His most recent album, last year’s What The Brokenhearted Do…, was a fake breakup album. But for his new one — the newly announced Fear Of Death, out next month via Spacebomb — he’s […]
