Lavendine has always possessed a knack for melody, but with their latest single “Diamonds in the Sky,” the group carves out an exciting new chapter in their sound. A shimmering, atmospheric synth-pop anthem laced with country undertones, it’s a bold and undeniably beautiful piece of pop craftsmanship that feels at once nostalgic and freshly futuristic.
Read MoreAlmost a tenth (9.6%) of all songs topping the Billboard Hot 100 list have the word “love” in their title. The five most popular love songs of all time, according to their performance on the weekly Billboard chart from its launch in 1958 through January 2025, are:
Read MoreBrooke Sanders has given us a pop gem with her latest single “Blonde”, a track that effortlessly pairs sparkling, infectious hooks with the sting of heartbreak, and the result is one of the most emotionally sharp pop singles we’ve heard this year so far. Inspired by artists like Sara Bareilles or Sabrina Carpenter, Sanders captures the often humiliating ache of unrequited love and dresses it up in a shimmering pop package that’s impossible not to love.
Read MoreCountry music has always thrived on two things: heartfelt storytelling and the communal act of raising a glass in good company. On “Pour One Up”, Norwegian country sensation Arthur Stulien hits both marks with style, swagger, and a voice made for the neon-lit stages of Nashville honky-tonks — even if he hails from a world away.
Read MoreWhere polished pop and algorithm-chasing singles flood the airwaves, sometimes all you need is a three-minute, high-octane blast of beer-drenched, middle-finger-waving punk rock to remind you what it feels like to be alive. Enter CHUB, the feral South Coast quartet who’ve been carving out a reputation as one of the UK’s most unapologetically raucous live bands — and with their new single, “Microwave Dave,” they’re throwing down one of the most infectious, adrenaline-charged anthems of the year.
Read MoreNowadays where it feels like music videos are often reduced to glossy, forgettable content farmed for social media scrolls, Movie Club — the Venice Beach psych rock duo of Vince Cuneo and Jessamyn Violet — have gone in the exact opposite direction. Their latest project, a double music video package titled Grindhouse Venice for new singles “Python” and “Black Mamba”, isn’t just a clever throwback to the DIY, blood-spattered aesthetics of Tarantino and Rodriguez’s Grindhouse
Read MoreEvan Charles has always been a name worth paying attention to in the Austin music scene — first as the frontman of alt-country standouts Altamesa, then as a solo artist with his 2023 debut Between Two Worlds, a record that earned deserved love from No Depression and found its way to #5 on the Alt-Country Specialty Chart. But with his new single “Echoes at Dawn”, just released on June 5th, Charles steps into something new, something shimmering, something electric — and it suits him beautifully.
Read MoreSome songs aren’t just heard — they imprint themselves on your soul, threading their melodies through the years of your life until you finally find the right moment to sing them back to the world. For Bo Menart, that moment arrives in stunning form with “When I Live My Dream”, a shimmering, heartfelt cover of one of David Bowie’s earliest and most overlooked pop ballads, originally released in 1967.
Read MoreSome songs feel like time capsules — tiny sonic spaceships hurtling through decades, landing in the present with a burst of nostalgia and a wink to the past. Michelle MaxiNe’s latest single, “Milky Way”, is exactly that: a shimmering, irresistibly fun homage to the glitter-soaked, heart-on-your-sleeve era of ‘80s disco pop, reframed through the lens of a modern romantic. And the result is pure starlight.
Read MoreSome records feel like they belong to a place — a sweaty club, a festival field, a midnight cityscape. Others seem designed for something less tangible: the uncharted spaces of your mind, those long twilight moments between consciousness and sleep, or the eerie calm of an empty highway. Textbook Maneuver’s debut album Adrenaline Slip, out June 6th, 2025, falls firmly into the latter category.
Read MoreSome tracks demand your attention from the first second, not with bombast but with mood — a thick, immersive atmosphere that lingers in the air like static. “422ppm,” the latest single from UK producer See How, does exactly that. Released June 6th, this deep, dubby garage cut isn’t just a song — it’s a fully realized soundscape, a piece of sonic protest art that feels both urgent and unshakably cool.
Read MoreSome artists never truly leave the stage — they just bide their time until the world’s ready to listen again. With his new EP, Michael Pos Direct from Sounds of Nashville, Michael Pos re-emerges not as a man chasing lost fame, but as an artist reshaping his voice after years spent chasing life itself. It’s a stirring, deeply personal collection of songs that feels less like a comeback and more like a bold new chapter for a musician with nothing to prove and everything to share.
Read MoreEvery so often, a voice emerges from the pop landscape that feels both familiar and unsettlingly new — the kind of artist who crafts songs you can’t quite pin down but can’t stop thinking about. Perenna King is one of those voices. With her latest single “Alibi,” the cinematic pop auteur delivers a gorgeously brooding, Western-Gothic ballad that not only seduces the ear but confronts one of America’s most incendiary social reckonings head-on.
Read MoreSome records arrive with a carefully curated aesthetic, a meticulously planned rollout, and a self-serious manifesto. Welcome to the Shit Show, the latest full-length assault from Atlanta’s Gas Station Boner Pills, proudly flips a middle finger to all of that. It’s brash, it’s chaotic, it’s absurd — and it might just be one of the most gloriously unfiltered punk albums of the year.
Read MoreLeave it to Damon DeGraff and GBM Nutron to remind us what summer should sound like. Their collaborative single “Down Di Road” is more than a track — it’s an open invitation to hit the streets, the beach, or wherever the music calls you. Released via the genre-blurring Masquerave Records, this vibrant fusion of Afro-Caribbean heat and cutting-edge dancefloor pulse stakes its claim as an early contender for 2025’s Song of the Summer.
Read MoreSometimes a band comes along that reminds you of the pure, unfiltered magic of making music for the love of it. LED — the newly minted indie pop rock trio out of East Hollywood — is one of those bands. Composed of Layne Olivia, Lockett, and Edie Yvonne, this group of teenage songwriters (ages 14 to 16) delivers a debut single with Lies All Lies that’s as emotionally electric as it is endlessly replayable.
Read MoreThere’s a particular kind of reverence required to cover a song like Cat’s In The Cradle. Written by the late, great Harry Chapin and originally released in 1974, the track remains one of American music’s most poignant cautionary tales — a folk-rock ballad about missed moments, generational cycles, and the quietly devastating cost of time gone by. In the wrong hands, a cover risks feeling hollow or overly sentimental.
Read MoreWhere pop-rock anthems often lean more on polish than passion, Tot Carlo delivers a track that feels like a pulse — raw, earnest, and profoundly human. Broken Pieces, the latest single from this Seattle-to-Everett singer-songwriter project, is a masterclass in translating lived experience into song. It’s a piece born from jagged personal history, but one that glimmers with the quiet resilience of hope.
Read MorePlaying games online can be relaxing, entertaining, and even make some people money. If you have many tasks on your plate, it can be difficult to keep track of the time. Having a balance between what you need to do daily and how much you play is important for both achieving your goals and supporting your mental health.
Read MoreWhat’s the first thing that comes to mind when we talk about Kentucky? Probably horses and bourbon, right? But Kentucky is much more than that. It is about culture, sports, heritage, rich history, and traditions, which are all embedded in their folklore. This is especially the case with all the songs that are aimed at Kentucky.
