Next month, the under-appreciated debut album from Mirah, You Think It’s Like This But Really It’s Like This, is getting reissued for its 20th anniversary. It’ll come out through the musician’s new home at Double Double Whammy, who will also presumably put out the follow-up to her most recent full-length, 2018’s Understanding, sometime down the […]

Perfume Genius – “Fade Into You” (Mazzy Star Cover)
Mazzy Star’s 1994 single “Fade Into You” is a perfect song — a swooning goth-country love-waltz that’s still fully capable of making you swoon 26 years later. It’s not the sort of song that anyone can improve on, and it’s got to be an intimidating thing to try to cover. But Perfume Genius is a […]

Fiery Furnaces Are Back With Their First Music in 10 Years
The last time that the Fiery Furnaces put out music, well, the world was a much different place to put it delicately. But here we are, and the Friedberger siblings are back.

The Fiery Furnaces Share First New Song In 10 Years: Listen
The Fiery Furnaces, the perversely unique musical project of siblings Eleanor and Matthew Friedberger, was supposed to be on the road playing reunion shows this summer. Or at least they were on the lineup for a music festival that has since been cancelled due to the pandemic like everything else, so presumably they had other […]
Weezer Turn 'Hero' Into Piano Ballad on 'Fallon'
When Weezer released their latest song, “Hero,” back in May, it became a touching tribute to the healthcare workers working on the frontlines to battle COVID-19. But the band’s performance of the song on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, showed a new side to the otherwise epic track. Rivers Cuomo sat at his piano […]
