One of the brightest revelations of 2020 was Bartees Strange. In a year full of misery, Strange’s debut album, Live Forever, was one of our favorites and landed on our best albums and best songs list. Thus, it makes sense that a year after the album’s release, Strange has more in store. The singer-songwriter shared a […]
Let’s Eat Grandma released a glistening video for their newest single, the synthpop-laden “Hall Of Mirrors.” This is the first music in three years from the British duo, Rosa Walton and Jenny Hollingworth. The pop song is rendered through the dreamlike video directed by El Hardwick. In the bright, yet blurry video, Let’s Eat Grandma […]
The Lumineers have announced their fourth studio album, BRIGHTSIDE, and shared its title track. “The song ‘BRIGHTSIDE’ was recorded in a single day,” says singer-guitarist Wesley Schultz. “It’s like a 15-year-old’s fever dream, an American love story in all its glory and heartbreak.

It’s been a long time since Eddie Vedder released a proper solo album—10 years to be precise. After that long layoff, “Long Way” is your first taste of what’s to come. The Pearl Jam frontman’s new track was a collaboration with Grammy-winning producer Andrew Watt (who, when we spoke with him last December, made no […]
Jesse Jo Stark sets her two loves — old-school country and punk — ablaze on her new EP, A Pretty Place To Fall Apart. The title track is an intense rock ballad — half the Lana, double the Alanis. Stark’s voice twists from soft to a full-on tornado of anguish, belting about she’d like to […]
Husband and wife duo Jeremy Ivey and Margo Price have shared a new song titled “All Kinds Of Blue.” With a striking, serious shiner on the cover, Ivey serenades Price in an upbeat, funny love song. And Price is singing it right back to him. “I wrote this very fast,” Ivey said in a statement. […]
After a year or so of talking and hyping it up, Kanye West’s Donda is finally out (at least in its current version). West’s latest release is 27 songs and clocks in at nearly two hours. On Thursday night at yet another listening party in his hometown of Chicago, West controversially brought out Marilyn Manson and DaBaby, […]
