My Morning Jacket announced they’d be releasing their first proper new album in six years last month. The veteran rockers just dropped a vibrant video for “Love Love Love,” the second single off their upcoming record. Check it out below.

Jason Isbell to Release 'Georgia Blue' Covers Album
What started off as a nice thought on Twitter has become a reality. Jason Isbell teased that if Georgia went blue in the 2020 election, he’d hunker down and record a covers album that featured songs from artists from the Peach State. Now, it’s finally on the way. Titled Georgia Blue, Isbell, along with a slew […]
Barrie – “Dig”
Barrie, the musical project of Barrie Lindsay, has always specialized in crisp metropolitan indie-pop. Both on stage and on record, the band has carved out a distinct stylistic identity, one adjacent to the likes of Yumi Zouma and Alvvays, like a dreamier spin on Fleetwood Mac. On her new single, she tweaks that identity somewhat. […]
Hatchie – “This Enchanted”
Harriette Pilbeam, the Australian musician and Artist To Watch who makes sparkling dream-pop music under the name Hatchie, has signed to Secretly Canadian. And to celebrate, she’s sharing a new song called “This Enchanted” — her first official single since the release of Hatchie’s debut album Keepsake, which came out on Double Double Whammy in […]
Lil Ugly Mane – “Porcelain Slightly” & “Into A Life”
For years, the Richmond artist Lil Ugly Mane made murky, lo-fi rap music that was generally impossible to categorize. Then, he mostly stopped. Now, he might be starting again. Earlier this summer, Lil Ugly Mane came out with two new songs, “Headboard” and “Here I Am,” that served as his first new music in a […]
St. Vincent – “The Nowhere Inn”
At the end of the week, The Nowhere Inn — the mockumentary starring St. Vincent and Carrie Brownstein — is arriving on video-on-demand services (and in select theaters). Annie Clark also did a soundtrack/score for the film, which will come out on September 19th, a couple days after the film is released. Today, St. Vincent […]
Bad Bad Hats – “Milky Way”
In a few days, the Minneapolis trio Bad Bad Hats will release their good, good new album Walkman. They’ve already shared the early songs “Detroit Basketball” and the title track, and now they’ve dropped the sparkling power-pop banger “Milky Way,” a supremely catchy piece of DIY fuzz-pop. The “Milky Way” video is also a fun […]
Spy – “Exceptional American”
Last year, because of the pandemic, it became possible for new punk bands to make a name for themselves without ever once playing a show. This would’ve been unthinkable at any other point in history, but it’s what happened with the Bay Area hardcore punk band Spy. In July of 2020, Spy released Service Weapon, […]
Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit – “Driver 8” (R.E.M. Cover)
Last year, Jason Isbell promised a covers album dedicated to the state of Georgia after it helped win the United States presidential election for Joe Biden. Last month, Isbell revealed that the album was finished and would feature contributions from Julien Baker, Brandi Carlile, and more. And today the covers album, known as Georgia Blue, […]
Jarvis Cocker – “Aline” (Christophe Cover)
Way back in February of 2020, the first trailer for Wes Anderson’s new movie The French Dispatch hit the internet, and it featured a piece of music that was both familiar and unfamiliar. The that played at the end of the trailer was a bit of a standard — “Aline,” a huge 1965 hit for […]
