A couple months ago, Sabrina Carpenter rebuked the White House for using her song “Juno” in a video promoting ICE. Now, Kesha is doing the same after the White House posted a military TikTok set to her 2010 hit “Blow” last month. The video, posted Feb. 10, depicts U.S. stealth fighter jets bombing vessels like […]
Chemical – “She She”
Last year, Chemical unveiled their eponymous debut EP, establishing themselves as a reliable source for cockeyed, unpredictable tunes. Today the Philly band is back with the sufficiently sinister song “She She.” “She She” is as off-kilter as possible. The lyrics are littered with haunting lines like, “25-year-old child soldier/ What you gonna do / Are […]
Bory – “Exactly What I Needed”
Brenden Ramirez, the Portland power-popper who records as Bory, is a few days away from releasing his new album Never Turns To Night, and we’ve posted his songs “We’ll Burn That Bridge When We Get To It,” “By The Lake,” and “Living Proof.” Today, he shares the soft, gentle acoustic track “Exactly What I Needed.” […]
Quelle Chris Drops Surprise New EP Happy Place
Rapper/producer Quelle Chris is an underground fixture who never does things the way that he’s supposed to do things, and that extends to the release of his new EP.

Yeat & EsDeeKid Made A Bad Song And Shot The Video At Drake’s Mansion
Is the EsDeeKid thing already over? I hope it’s not. If it was, it was fun while it lasted. Last year, the masked Liverpool rapper EsDeeKid emerged out of the UK underground with a hard, energetic style. He rapped in incredibly short bursts over blown-out, psychedelic lo-fi beats, and he leaned hard into his accent. […]
Angèle – “What You Want” (Feat. Justice)
Belgian singer Angèle, who performed with Phoenix and Kavinsky at the Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony, has linked up with French electro monoliths Justice for a new song called “What You Want.” I think it’s supposed to be sexy and suspenseful, but it’s sort of mediocre. The bass is fuzzy, and the synths are neon-lit, but […]

big long sun are a Brighton-based eight-piece — Mina-Mae Alexander, Jamie Broughton, Ocean Goucher, Zofia Szymanowska, Oliver Parkes, Tom Gregory, Malte Henning, and Robert Smyth — that make “sonic bedroom art rock pop noises … for dreaming.” That last bit is real important to their loose-limbed folk oeuvre. Their latest single “call it a voice” […]
